Weaver

Skitskurr the Weaver is a ranged agility hero, who isn't capable of being in the center of a battle, but can really annoy and harass his enemies in the lane. Weaver is a difficult hero to kill due to his low-cooldown Shukuchi ability which grants him invisibility and movement speed, and his Ultimate, Time Lapse, which allows him to recover completely from a large amount of damage dealt to him. Weaver is a carry who can surprise wounded foes running away from the battle, hunt them down and disappear, avoiding the focus of the enemy team.

Tips

 * While in Shukuchi, position yourself to use your Geminate Attack as soon as Shukuchi ends.
 * You can use Time Lapse to get back into the fight immediately after your death (by quick buyback). This is a risky maneuver, however, as you most likely won't be at full HP when you arrive. Consider using this trick when you got nuked by a strong ultimate (like Lion's - Finger of Death, or Lina's - Laguna Blade). Using Shukuchi after Time Lapse will also improve your survivability (if your HP is not full).
 * Manta style provides a reliable means of removing silence, dust, or other status debuffs.
 * Weaver can be one of the trickiest hero's to kill in DotA 2 due to Shukuchi and Time lapse, making him a legitimate Divine Rapier holder in the late game.
 * Weaver is great at kiting and killing melee carries (such as Ursa) with the low cooldown of Shukuchi and the armor reduction effects of The Swarm.

Trivia

 * Weaver's original title was Nerubian Weaver, and his original name was Anub'seran. Nerubians are a race of arachnids in the Warcraft universe.
 * Weaver's fun name in DotA was Anoob'seran.
 * Geminate Attack is frequently misread as Germinate Attack. To geminate is to double, coming from the Latin word for twin (as in Gemini).
 * Shukuchi is a Japanese term for rapid movement, or teleportation.
 * Weaver draws many inspirations from a character of the same name in the novel, Perdido Street Station.
 * Weaver's Time Lapse icon may also be a reference to the box art of the movie Aliens 3, considering that Sigourney Weaver has the lead role in the film.
