Let's take a look at what do we need to know about this awesome hero.
Dota 2 is a game where you can choose between a big selection of heroes, each of which is awesome to play with. Some of them make great carries, whereas others are mainly used to support.
Today, we will take a look at one hero who is often considered a nightmare to lane against because he is just too strong. Razor has been "on and off" in the meta for some time now. However, even when the hero was not that popular, many people still picked him just to crush the enemy on the lane.
Having said that, let's take a look at everything we need to know about this hero and how can we make him a beast.
Razor is an agility range hero that can be played in one of the three core positions. However, we definitely shine the most when he is put in the mid lane, especially against certain enemies.
Despite being a ranged hero, his range is actually not that big. On the contrary, Razor has one of the best attack animations that allow him to easily secure those last hits and denies, whenever it's needed. What's more, this hero is also one of the fastest in Dota 2, which makes him very good at chasing or escaping ganks, whatever the case may be. Combines with his abilities, it's easy to see why Razor is such a strong laner.
Speaking of his abilities, here is a list of them and how they work:
As we've mentioned above, Razor is exclusively played as a core hero, which means that most core items will do just fine. However, there are a couple of items that make this hero really strong, which is why you can often see people purchasing it all the time:
As for counters, there are really not that many hero that can stand a chance against Razor. Usually, the ones that have a lot of range can be a bit hard to deal with, such as Sniper for example. Also, unless Razor purchases some items that provide magic resistance, heroes like Tinker and Zeus can also be a pain.
