Dawnbreaker Offlane

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Dawnbreaker

• Dawnbreaker is typically a strong laner. Play aggressively and jump opponents out of position with Celestial Hammer and Starbreaker combo.
• Keep an eye on the map to save an ally in trouble with Solar Guardian and turn the fight around. You should be looking to join almost every start of the fight with your ultimate early on.
• You can clear waves from safe distance by using Celestial Hammer and hiding in the trees. The creeps will slowly burn to death overtime with the help of your wave.
• Play separately from your team, push out lanes and mask team`s smoke moves as you can connect to your team with ultimate. Apply pressure all throughout the map wherever you can.
• Once you have Black King Bar, play aggressively and join almost every fight to get kills across the map.
• Aghanim`s Shard gives you spell immunity and better control with Starbreaker. Use it often to escape dangerous scenarios and to nuke enemy heroes.
