Uther is a top tier melee support hero and can be a lot of fun to play if you like skill shots and have the patience and awareness to get a good ultimate off in a team fights. A great ultimate from Uther, can be the tipping point that allows you to win a team fight. I would say Uther doesn't particularly have a high skill ceiling, but I would say you need to have really good awareness to play him effectively. Uther is suitable for each map, however Brightwings teleport can be utilized much better (with a coordinated team) on most maps, making Brightwing a much more popular choice. But if you are looking for some strong AOE crowd control and need another semi-tanky character, than Uther can be a great choice. Uther is the tankiest of the healers available, but the least mobile. He offers more CC than any of the other healers, in exchange for his melee range. |

Conjurer's Pursuit |
Uther has awful mana regeneration, and a relatively small mana pool. As this is the case, it makes Conjurer's Pursuit an ESSENTIAL talent. Putting this aside the other talents are just useless. Conjurer's Pursuit was recently buffed, giving you an initial .5 mana regen bonus. By 10 minutes, you should have a minimum of 4 stacks of Conjurer's Pursuit. This will means you will regenerate an additional 1.5 mana per second which is very noticeable. Creep Wave Times and Conjurer's Pursuit stacks. 2 mins = 1 stacks = .75 Mana p/s 10 mins = 5 stacks = 1.75 Mana p/s 20 mins = 10 stacks = 3 Mana p/s |

Protective Shield |
Again, another talent that is the only option. Protective shield is an amazing skill and can be used in two ways. 1) It can be used immediately on a friendly target that is taking pressure. Remember this only last 5 seconds, so place it as the connect with the target for maximum shield absorption. 2) For those that played HoN or Dota - it can be used similar to a Mana Battery/Magic Stick. Ideally, you would want to use this as a last second second save on an ally. The reason for this as people go to turn off the hero as they get low/do the final killing blow allowing for your ally to escape, and get topped up, then return to the fight. |

|
Cleanse | This is the correct talent choice (assuming the opponents have at least a couple of CC abilities) for this tier - HOWEVER - it is extremely hard to use this effectively. I would suggest doing some reading on this skill specifically before you use it. I would suggest this only if you're extremly familure with Uther and the game. It can be a wasted talent if used at the wrong times, but a godly talent if used at the right time! |
|
Clairvoyance | I would pick this talent up if either Cleanse will not be effective against your opponents or if you find you are in the moderately skilled bracket or below as a healer. This can be an incredible talent for setting up team fights, deciding whether you can steal opponents camps or just general vision. Don't forget this reveals stealthys!! |
|
Divine Storm | This is the only ultimate choice for Uther. The damage is insane for a AOE CC stun. Remember that the range is quite small on this initially, and can take 10-20 games for you to really start to perfect it's radius. Later this will be combo'd with Sprint and Hurricane to punish out of position teams late game. |
|
|
Sprint | As mentioned before, try to save this ability for when you ultimate. I'll explain this in more details in Tips n Tricks below. Don't be scared to use this as an escape or to chase to an ally player to heal if you have to. |
|
Imposing Presence | This can be a controversial tier. I personally believe and take Imposing Presence 100% of the time. As you need to position yourself in melee range to stun, to ult, and auto attack, you actually get auto'd quite often. This increases your survivalist immensely and makes you a much less desirable target to burst at the start of a team fight. |
|
|
Divine Hurricane | Divine Storm's radius is increased by 100% and .... Enough said. This becomes a half screen wide stun with huge damage. If you're trailing behind all game, this talent alone can turn the tide back in your favor. |
