Pugna

Basic Strategy

 * Make sure Nether Blast is always maxed first.
 * Nether Blast has a cast delay of 0.5 seconds. Note that during this delay you can press 's' to stop the spell and re-target it if needed.
 * Last hit the tower with Nether Blast if it's at risk of being denied.
 * ALWAYS use Nether Ward during team clashes. It costs a mere 80 mana and can often deal more damage than a Zeus ultimate during fights.
 * Pugna's HP and armor is amongst the lowest in Dota 2, so it is very important to buff him up a bit by buying a Mekansm or 2 Bracers.

Trivia

 * Pugna is voiced by Gary Schwartz.
 * Pugna has the most intelligence gain (+4 intelligence per level).
 * According to Alchemist's voice lines, Pugna is largely phosphorus.
