Hero Overview
Legion Commander is a versatile carry hero known for her powerful single-target lockdown and scaling potential through Duel. Her Overwhelming Odds provides excellent wave clear and teamfight presence, while Press the Attack offers both offensive and defensive utility. As she accumulates Duel damage, she transitions from an initiator to a terrifying late-game carry.
The hero's strength lies in her ability to isolate and eliminate key targets through Duel, permanently stealing their damage. Her Moment of Courage passive provides strong sustain and dueling potential, making her effective in both jungle farming and direct confrontations. However, she requires careful positioning and timing to maximize her impact.

Phase-by-Phase Game Strategy
Early Game (Laning/Jungling)
Legion Commander can either lane or jungle effectively. If jungling, start with Iron Talon and focus on clearing camps efficiently. Max Moment of Courage first for sustain and jungle speed. Look for gank opportunities at level 6 with Duel. In lane, play aggressively with Moment of Courage procs and use Overwhelming Odds to harass and secure last hits.
Mid Game (Farming & Dueling)
This is where you should focus on accumulating Duel damage. Prioritize Blink Dagger for initiation, then build tanky items like Blade Mail. Look for isolated targets to Duel, especially supports or carries without escape mechanisms. Use Press the Attack before Dueling for the attack speed bonus. Remember that you can cast Overwhelming Odds even while disabled during Duel.
Late Game (Carry Potential)
With substantial Duel damage accumulated, you become a formidable carry. Focus on maintaining vision control and picking off key targets. In teamfights, wait for enemies to use their disables before engaging. Build items that complement your Duel damage, like Daedalus or Silver Edge. Remember that tread switching is crucial for mana management and maximizing healing from Press the Attack.
