Zeus Mid

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Zeus

• Lightning Bolt provides vision and reveals invisible heroes and wards.
• Use Arc Lightning to secure creep last hits and damage the opponents at the same time.
• Mana management and rune control are key for Zeus to be able to farm and fight effectively.
• Look around the map to kill opponents on low health with Thundergod`s Wrath.
• Thundergod`s Wrath reveals invisible heroes but doesn`t damage them.
• Thundergod`s Wrath lightens the part of the map where opponents are smoked but doesn`t damage them.
• Don`t show yourself at the start of the fight. Let opponents focus on your allies so you can get all of your spells off.
• As you are moving around, constantly check for opponents wards with Lightning Bolt.
• You can pop smoke for yourself here and there and cast spells from it in the fights.
• Aghanims Scepter is a huge power spike against backliners and evasive heroes, such as Tinker.
• Black King Bar on enemy heroes is problematic for your damage output. You need to kite those and prolong the fight.
• It is fine to use your ultimate here and there in late game to scout for opponents.
• Once you have Manta Style with Aghanim Shard, use the illusions to safely shove lanes towards the enemy base.
