Anduin’s Synergies and Counters

Synergizes with:

In particular, Anduin has no synergy, as he powers a large number of Heroes due to his neutral equipment. However, his constant healing can make Tanks very difficult to kill. For Assassins without any natural form of escape, such as Jaina or Raynor, his Jump of Faith can be a boon of salvation to protect them from enemy attacks.

Countered by:

He struggles against two main effects that affect his gear: First, Ana’s anti-healing abilities like the Biotic Grenade, which greatly reduces his combat performance. Second, mobile assassins like Tracer or Illidan cannot let Anduin escape unless supported by his teammates. A point more specific to his Holy Word: Salvation Heroic Ability is long-range crowd control effects, such as Falstad’s Mighty Gust.

• Passive Spotlight can be used after using the Desperate Prayer Icon to reset the Flash Heal’s cooldown.
• Lightbomb’s Stun can be used after (or before) using Chastise Icon Chastise’s Root to activate a powerful crowd control combo.
