Sylla the Lone Druid is an adaptable and versatile ranged or melee agility Hero, who summons a Spirit Bear, who has a set of skills and can equip items, as his ally. With the help of his Spirit Bear, he can carry, jungle, and push lanes effectively. Because of these, technically speaking, the Spirit Bear and Lone Druid himself, are two available heroes at once. The Spirit Bear is mostly played as the tank and aura giver, while the Lone Druid is played as the support and the main damage dealer as the Druid is still capable of causing more damage than the Spirit Bear. When he activates his abilities, it will not only buff him but the Spirit Bear as well. Lone Druid is versatile as he can change from a fast ranged warrior to a tough and mighty melee bear himself. Together, they can push the lanes effectively, farm Neutrals in a cinch, and can take down Roshan by themselves if equipped with the right items. Due to the Spirit Bear, Lone Druid can have up to 12 items making him extremely formidable as he scales into the late game.

Bio

Sylla, the Lone Druid  "I wonder what awaits me at the end of everything…" Role: Carry / Durable / Pusher / Jungler Lore: Long before the first words of the first histories there rose the druidic Bear Clan. Wise and just they were, and focused in their ways to seek an understanding of the natural order. The arch forces of nature saw this, and so sought the most learned among them. Wise old Sylla, clan justiciar and seer, stepped forward for his kin, and to him was given the Seed with these words: 'When all of the world has dimmed, when civilization has left these lands, when the world is slain and wracked by the endless deserts at the end of ages, plant the Seed.' As he grasped his trust, Sylla felt his years recede and his vitality returned. Vast knowledge burst into his mind. He found himself able to project his very will into reality and, with some concentration, alter his own physical form as well. Yet subtle whispers and cruel ears brought word of the Seed and its power to other peoples, and a terrible war crashed upon the Bear Clan. As his ancestral home burned, Sylla took his burden and fled to the wild places. Ages passed, and time and myth forgot the Bear Clan, forgot Sylla and the Seed, forgot wondrous civilizations that rose and fell in Bear Clan’s wake. For millenia, Sylla has waited, waited for word from his deities, waited for peace to come to the ever warring realms, waited in exile and in secret for the end of all things and for the conclusion of his sacred commitment, preparing himself always to face and destroy whatever would dare threaten his purpose.

Entangling Claws Ability Affects Damage Passive Enemies Physical Attacks have a chance to cause roots to burst from the ground, immobilizing the attacked enemy unit, and dealing damage per second.

Chance: 20% Damage per second: 60 Duration on hero: 3 Duration on creep: 9 5 Notes: Entangling Claws ensnares targets, disabling movement.

Starting Early-game Core Situational

Explanation:

• A Stout Shield will allow your bear to tank damage if you opt to jungle. Tango and Salve provide you with early regeneration, and a Ring of Protection builds into Tranquil Boots.
• An Orb of Venom allows your bear to harass and chase enemy heroes very effectively.
• Radiance allows you to inflict significant AoE damage without harm to yourself and outside of bear leash range, while also acting as a farming and pushing enhancer with great +damage to synergize with the Spirit Bear's demolish.
• The bear benefits greatly from attack speed items as they make entangle more reliable. Auras such as Drum of Endurance and Vladimir's or Assault Cuirass are common items to benefit both Lone Druid and his bear.
