Tips

• Use Ghost Wolf (Z) as a combo move for an extra amount of damage.

• Earthbind Totem (E) can be used as a scouting tool. Place it near mercenaries to discover if the opposing team is trying to capture them. If so, coordinate with Rehgar's team and ambush.

• Use Lightning Shield (W) as a means for killing the Infested Servants on Garden of Terror. The area of effect ability will help you clean up the clumps of plants in a swift manner.

Matchups

Pairings

Being a more aggressive Support, Rehgar can reliably keep The Butcher alive and provide additional damage to his targets. Lightning Shield is good for extra bits of damage, and also aids in waveclear, which is important when The Butcher is gathering Fresh Meat, while Earthbind Totem is useful to prevent opponents from fleeing, especially when they have been marked with Butcher's Brand. Lastly, Bloodlust greatly boosts The Butcher performance.

Similarly to Uther, Rehgar is a strong healer, and has the right tools to complement Li Li's set. His Lightning Shield can be used in conjuntion with Cloud Serpent on Warriors and Melee Assassins to improve their trading ability, while Earthbind Totem works fantastically with Water Dragon, especially if Earthgrasp Totem is taken, allowing for a massive slow chain.
