Shadow Shaman (also known as Rhasta) is an INT support hero
notorious for his ability to lock down the opposing team with disables and
pushing power. He is most commonly played as a tri lane support, but can often
go solo mid as well. Regardless of the situation, you want to have Ether Shock
maxed by level 7. Your skill build should go something like this:
1. Hex/Shackle
2. Shock
3. Shock
4. Hex/Shackle (only take 1 point of shackle, hex should be maxed
first)
5. Shock
6. Ultimate
7. Shock
8. Hex
9. Hex
10. Hex
11. Ultimate
12-16. Shackle until maxed, Ult at lvl 16
Shadow Shaman's playstyle involves setting up ganks with his
disables. You want to lead the way by hexing the opponent, then shackling him
if you feel you won't get stunned or disabled instantly. You can also attempt a
ward trap if you feel your skill is good enough for it. At lvl 6-7 you want to
drop your ult on a tower and take it down, don't forget to use ether shock to
clear out the creep wave. Common items include:
Arcane boots
Wards
Magic Wand
Bottle
Eul's Scepter
Blink Dagger
Aghanims
Urn
Force Staff
Sheep Stick
Shadow Shaman can be tricky to play because his skills require you
to play agressively, but his HP and mana are quite low without a lot of items.
If you are going to die, try and use as many skills as possible before going
down.
