- At high levels, Ogre skills recharge very quickly and can be used very often
Minuses

Damage per Second: 20/30/40/50
Move Speed Slow: 20%/22%/24%/26%
Duration: 5/6/7/8
· The additional projectile only targets enemies that are not yet affected by the Ignite debuff.
· If there are several enemies within the radius of action without a debuff, then the closest target is selected for the second projectile.
- Debuffs from Ignite do not stack with each other. In this case, the new application adds its duration to the already existing debuff, rather than refreshing it.
- Deals damage in 1 second intervals, immediately after applying the debuff.
Bloodlust
Causes an ally to go berserk, increasing their attack and movement speed.
Add. Movement Speed Bonus: 7%/9%/11%/13%
Add. attack speed: 30/40/50/60
- Bloodlust can be cast on an allied tower
- When Multicast is triggered, instantly applies the Bloodlust buff to random allies within range.
- Also increases the size of the target model by 25% for the entire duration. The ability does not affect the size of the collision.
- You can enable autocasting of the ability. (When autocast is on, Ogre Magi will automatically apply the ability to the nearest allied hero that is not yet under the buff from Bloodlust.)
Unrefined Fireblast
The ability appears after the purchase of Aghanim's Scepter
Strikes an enemy with a wave of fire, damaging and stunning the target. This ability uses 30% of your current mana.
Stun Duration: 1.5
- Ogre Magi will always have enough mana to use this ability, as it always requires 30% of his current mana (rounded off).
- When Multicast is triggered, Unrefined Fireblast hits the same target multiple times at 0.6 second intervals.
Fire shield
Appears after purchasing Aghanim's Shard
Creates a shield around an allied creature or structure that absorbs damage from the following attacks. Fireballs fly at the attacker, causing damage
Number of attacks: 3
Attack Damage Reduction: 70%
· When Multicast is triggered, instantly applies the buff to random allies in the radius.
- The shield only reacts to attacks: damage reduction applies only to attack damage.
- The ball's damage source is always the Fire Shield caster, but not the creature under the shield.
- Reapplying it to the target will not reset the number of attacks, but only renew the duration.
Multicast
Allows the hero's abilities and items to trigger multiple times in a single cast.
- In addition to triggering its own spells, Multicast can activate objects aimed at the target when choosing enemies.
- The following items activate Multicast: Force Staff, Heaven's Halberd, Abyssal Blade, Diffusal Blade, Bloodthorn, Hurricane Pike, Ethereal Blade, Eul's Scepter of Divinity, Medallion of Courage, Dagon, Hand of Midas, Rod of Atos, Solar Crest, Nullifier, Orchid Malevolence, Scythe of Vyse
- The multiple trigger radius is based on the cast range of the item, the bonus cast range, and the 600 cast range.
Ability boost
The skill leveling will always be the same, there is no point in inventing a bicycle. The buff at the first level will not give much benefit, but active abilities will give us the opportunity to play more aggressively.
Talents
Here, too, everything is standard. The 25 right talent looks interesting, but more fun than reliable.

Assembly examples
In pro games, we do not see midas on this hero, as it is very greedy and they try to buy more useful items. But in public, where you can play for yourself, midas is one of the best acquisitions. Try to occupy the lane for a few minutes after your carry goes into the forest in order to have time to farm this item for up to 20 minutes.
The lens is a standard item that makes our game more enjoyable.
With the help of the aghanim, we get an additional ability that we can cast at any time, because it spends 30% of its current mana.
If the game enters late, then hexes and dagons can already go into action, these items also perfectly stack with our ultimate.
Gameplay
Ogre's gameplay is not very different, he plays on most of the supports. We are close to the lane, doing taps, trying to make stacks of neutrals for the allied carry hero and placing wards. The advantage of the Ogre is that over time the hero builds up his fighting power. That is, the skills begin to hit more painfully, and with the pumping of the Multicast ult, there is a chance to use the skill several times. If successful, the Ogre is capable of delivering massive amounts of damage. Learning to play the Huge is easy. All skills do not require any precision from you to use them, and they are all extremely simple and straightforward. Ult dak is a passive skill at all.
