1)Play defensively until you get lvl 4 for Vampiric Assault.

2)Stay in mobile form(mostly) and poke the enemy hero(s) in the lane as often as you can taking advantage your auto hit range which is nice.

1) Stay with your team and help them as much as you can in team fights. Your range is invaluable in big fights.

2) Take mercenary camps for your team as often as you can. Its easy with your dmg and life leech

3) Push towers and gates with every opportunity

1) Keep pushing lanes when the enemies are distracted doing bosses etc. Use napalm strike to bring buildings down asap and your thrusters to run back away to safety. Or teleport back as soon as you feel vulnerable. If you are deep in the enemy base you wont have many chances of getting out if you are late.

2) When you can use bushes and walls to keep some distance between you and the enemies in fights so they cant just turn around and nuke you. Your massive range will take care of everything else.

3) Again, improved napalm strike is your bread and butter skill. Use it as often as you can and take advantage of its great range at lvl 20 to bring the hp of the enemies down mostly if they stay close to each other.

4) Keep Barricade handy for when you see the aura of Nova approaching to you or when you need to create that distance or even block enemies so you or your team can kill them. Use it creatively !!

1) Dont use thrusters at lvl 1 to get to the bush faster! If someone else is already hiding there and they jump on you, you have no means of escaping the cc and you are actually a free first blood.

2) Napalm strike is your best friend in sieging walls, assuring kills and damaging enemies in team fights. Use it as often as you can. It rocks

3) Use Barricade intelligently and tactically. It can save you, it can save your allies, it can secure kills by blocking the escape of an enemy. It can even block completely a hero close to a wall so he cant move. Remember! User controlled NPCs like dragons and the plant are susceptible to CC !! use barricade to keep the dragon away from your building for some seconds. its worth it. Barricade is an amazing utility tool

4) Gradual range is amazing but its not mobile. Use your thrusters to get away quickly from stinky situations when sieged up.
