Mirana

Mirana the Pottan of the Moon, is a ranged Agility Hero that uses her abilities to surprise, chase, and assault enemies. She is an excellent huntress and widely known for her Sacred Arrow which stuns her victim with deadly precision. The arrow stuns longer when its fired from a farther distance. Mirana can bring down the stars with Starstorm to damage nearby enemies and an additional star to cast down on her one unfortunate target. Mounting with her trusted tiger Sagan, Mirana can Leap forward over a distance, to escape or chase, and enhancing her allies with a roar, increasing their attack and movement speed. Invoking the power of her moon goddess, Mirana uses her ultimate, Moonlight Shadow to cloak all allied heroes and herself with invisibility. At any time, Mirana and her allies can break out of their hiding with an ambush and fade into the shadows again during the duration of the spell. With an array of mighty and supportive skills, Mirana is a versatile heroine that can excel early in the game as a mobile ganker. She is not very heavily reliant on luxurious items but she can benefit from almost any item that gives her presence in the battlefield.

Tips

 * Moonlight Shadow is useful both as an escape ability for yourself and/or the team, and as a way to set up a gank.
 * As a strong semi-carry, Mirana is quite special - she doesn't really need farm early-mid game, thus making her a threat at that stage as a ganker. She is able to farm up items quite quickly by using Starstorm to clear creep waves as well.
 * When deciding to level up Starstorm or Sacred Arrow consider the damage scaling (Arrow's stun duration does not scale with levels). Sacred Arrow damage increases 90 per level while Starstorm increases 75 per level.  However, when you consider the second star hit from Starstorm, the damage scales 131.25 per level.
 * The movement/attack speed bonus from Leap is quite significant, more than an activated Drum of Endurance. Position this correctly during teamfights to buff all your allies with it.
 * Even a level 1 Sacred Arrow can give a large stun if far away enough. Hiding in the jungle at level 1 and hitting one at level 1 can secure an easy first blood if laning with a good partner.

Trivia

 * Mirana is the tiger of Multan fort that killed the king of Mongols (in the Mongol folklore).
 * Her mount's name is Sagan. When defeating Invoker, her response is a pun of Carl Sagan.
 * In the transition from DotA to Dota 2, the names of two of Mirana's skills were changed. Starstorm used to be called Starfall and Elune's Arrow is now called Sacred Arrow. Additionally, Mirana is now a Princess of the Moon, as opposed to a Priestess.
 * She is affiliated with Luna, as Luna also serves under Selemene.
 * Her DotA hero title was "Priestess of the Moon"; it had to be changed for legal reasons, because the title also exists in the Warcraft universe. Oddly though, Mirana still refers to herself as a Priestess in her voice files.
