There are a few that should really be bought at the start of every game. The first — and one of the most crucial for oh-so-many reasons — is the Animal Courier gold. He can also be used to visit the Secret Shop for you and buy items there, which is — again — very handy. The others are Observer Wards gold. There are a limited number of these available at any given time only one set of two can be purchased at the beginning of the game, and someone should buy them but they provide a team with wide-ranging vision of a region.
As such, they can be used for protection against stealthed or otherwise hidden heroes, as well as to find and destroy enemy wards. Generally, at the start of any given game, the support players who need less gold to remain useful should spend at least part of their starting cash on buying a Courier, buying a set of Observer Wards, and — after a few minutes — upgrading the Courier to Flying.
Oh so many. The first are Tangos 90 gold , which provide a bit of health regeneration if you, uh, use them to eat a tree. Just bear with it, okay? Use a Tango in your inventory on a tree, get back around health over the next 16 seconds. The Bottle is another healing item with three charges, only these charges restore health and 70 mana, and they fill up whenever you visit your fountain or grab a rune. Every two minutes, a rune will spawn in one of two locations on the river, helpfully marked on the map below:.
There are five types of rune: Double Damage doubles auto-attack damage , Haste increases movement speed to maximum , Illusion creates a pair of weak duplicates of your hero , Invisibility makes you invisible , and Regeneration restores up to around health and mana. These spots on the river are commonly warded so that the player in the middle lane knows where the rune has spawned, and can pick it up to refill their Bottle, say, as Bottles are more common on mid-lane heroes or at least stop the opponent from getting it.
