Ringmaster seems designed to be a support thanks to his large repertoire of nukes and crowd-control abilities.

The long wait forDota 2’s new hero is finally over.

Enemies caught in the whipped area are damaged and flee away in fear from Ringmaster.

It also has a 16/14/12/10 second cooldown and a 90/105/120/135 manacost.

Boxed units gain phased movement, slow resistance, bonus magic resistance, and bonus movement speed.

They are also untargetable, muted, silenced, and disarmed.

The box will pop open after the effect expires or it moves more than 500 units away.

It also has a constant 80 manacost and a 38/32/26/20 second cooldown.

This ability is fairly straightforward, best used to get Ringmaster or his allies out of sticky situations.

When used against creeps, this ability deals 100 damage per second.

This ability is also very spammable with a 1 second cooldown and a constant 80 mana cost.

Enemy heroes who face the wheel for more than 0.5 seconds are mesmerized and drawn towards it.

The first enemy to be mesmerized triggers a timer for the wheel to explode.

If the timer is not triggered, it will automatically explode after 8 seconds.

The Wheel of Wonder has a minimum range of 600 and a fairly large effect radius of 600.

It has a cooldown of 90/80/70 seconds and a 175/275/375 mana cost.

Enemies in the light have a chance to miss their attacks and are revealed if invisible.

Illusions hit by the beam also fade away, losing a percentage of their maximum health each second.

It also has a 30-second cooldown and a 50 mana cost.

This ability gives Ringmaster more teamfight utility against invisibility and illusion-based enemy heroes.

The significant miss chance is also nice against physical damage-based carry heroes to reduce their impact in chaotic teamfights.

Additional Souvenirs are held as charges.

If Ringmaster also does not have a Souvenir when he respawns he will be granted one.

Souvenirs of the Dark Carnival include a Funhouse Mirror, a Strongman Tonic, and a Whoopee Cushion.

While Ringmaster does have an Innate ability on release, he doesn’t have Facets yet.

At level 25, your choice will largely depend on what helps you win teamfights more.

Otherwise, the Wheel of Wonder one is a great all-around choice.

What role is best for Ringmaster?

In the midgame onwards, Ringmaster can become a teamfight monster with his array of crowd control abilities.

After that, Blink Dagger and Aether Lens will help greatly with positioning and landing your abilities in clashes.
