Strategy[]
Penthos relies on sticking to the target for as long as possible. This is done through his many blinks and his passive slow which is only amplified by Force of Entropy and Nitrogen Retrofit. When he is in trouble, he can pop his E or his Ultimate + E to survive for a long time.
- Use the Ultimate wisely as it has a fairly long cooldown for what it gives you.
- The Blinkstorm damage does not stack so don't try and stack them on top of one another.
- Using the Q's pull effect can be very tricky and buggy. Use it at your own risk.
- More often than not, you will use your Ultimate for your E as the other skills just aren't worth using it with.
