Samuro is a pretty strong hero that has S+ tier survivability and is pretty reasonable in most other aspects. Because of that he is considered a very annoying hero to play against. In order to play Samuro well, you have to play to his strengths and know exactly what you are aiming to do in any given game. We talk about this and more in this video!

All you need to know about every build and talent for Samuro! Lots of Samuro specific tips and tricks and playstyle explanations as well! There will also be a Samuro Grandmaster VOD Analysis(in a separate post) to add even more coverage to the hero!

How to counter Samuro? He seems to win every 1v1 match up and really hard to counter in general in Solo Q

fanhots

Most of the Tier S solo laners wave clear faster than Samuro does, so you can just clear the wave and leave and join the team and force a 5v4. Samuro also can't push well if you are ever there defending so if you need to D his split push mirror him and be under your towers to defend.

hey fan can you elaborate more on why level 20 bladestorm talent is bad?

fanhots

It does very little damage. Bladestorm is less damage than autoattacking so usually you dont even want to be using that button in teamfights and it does basically nothing out of teamfight since 1 bladestorm already clears a full minion wave.

How do you think the new PTR patch affects Sam? Does anything change? I was thinking it might open up the level 4 choices. Curious of your thoughts.

It's possible going for more damage talents will be ok after the PTR patch but I'd have to test it some more. It's also possible even with the nerfs E build will still be the best since its the thing Samuro does the best.
