Drunken Brawler also allows Brewmaster to harass the enemies in lane with critical hits and movement speed buff.

In the laning stage, Drunken Brawler's critical damage can help Brewmaster secure difficult last hits meanwhile, evasion can keep him in lane by avoiding a few physical attacks.While pursuing, use Cinder Brew on a path where the enemy hero will go to slow them down, preventing them from getting away easily.Combo Cinder Brew with Thunder Clap or other abilities from allies that deal spell damage to ignite the enemies, applying the damage over time debuff.When going for the kill, Brewmaster can use Thunder Clap for magical damage and movement speed slow, giving him plenty of time to throws out many attacks.In such cases, it is better to use Primal Split right away. Keep in mind that it is not always ideal to use Thunder Clap during an initiation, as the cast time will allow enemies to disable Brewmaster.Blink next to an enemy and use Thunder Clap as an initiation ability, as it will slow their movement speed.It is generally maxed out first due to its high damage. Thunder Clap is strong at the early stages of the game, acting as his area-of-effect soft disable.However, against enemies with disables, Brewmaster may want to cast Primal Split immediately after blink. Brewmaster commonly initiates with Blink Dagger, then Thunder Clap, followed by Primal Split.Brewmaster can choose to purchase Black King Bar and damage items to take advantage of Drunken Brawler if he wants to contribute during teamfights when Primal Split is on cooldown.The utility of the summoned brewlings works excellently for finishing off opponents as well as initiation. If Brewmaster is being played more in the semi-carry role, consider using Primal Split as a life saver to keep yourself in the fight when you would normally die.When playing Brewmaster, try to gain an advantage for your team early before enemy heroes, particularly before the enemy carry can build a Black King Bar, as Brewmaster's disables cannot penetrate spell immunity.With his numerous disables during Primal Split, Brewmaster is effective in shutting down physical damage carries.Does not benefit illusions and is not affected by most percentage-based damage increasing or reducing effects.This attack damage talent is added as bonus attack damage.Either way, Brewmaster continues to threaten teamfights by removing and disabling many heroes at once, as well as dishing out tons of damage if controlled and itemized appropriately. Unlike offlane Brewmaster, he has a choice between purchasing Aghanim's Scepter to further increase utilities of Primal Split, or damage items to transition into a carry with the help of Drunken Brawler, which gives critical chance. Later on, he will also initiate with Blink Dagger and Primal Split. With Bottle, he controls runes and has sustain to farm with Thunder Clap. He can buy defensive items to ensure a good Primal Split and aura items to help allies during fights.īrewmaster dominates the middle lane due to his tankiness and great abilities. Later in the game, Brewmaster should initiate with Blink Dagger and controls as many enemies as he can with Primal Split. Also, Brewmaster can last hit with Drunken Brawler's critical damage. Drunken Brawler provides him with kind of an escape with evasion and movement speed buff. In the offlane, Brewmaster should try to stay alive with defensive items. Counters carries, summons, and illusions to some extent.However, he does not excel at any one purpose, and should be considered a hybrid between initiator, ganker, and tank. Brewmaster is fairly tanky, and difficult to kill when he splits apart with his ultimate ability. He lands critical hits and evades at random due to Drunken Brawler, while dealing critical damage. With the help of a Blink Dagger, he jumps in to initiate with Thunder Clap, then divides into three elemental beings with Primal Split.
