ITEM & SKILL BUILDS

Optimized item & skill guides for Squirt, the River Nymph.

HEALER BUILD

hard support

Play as a hard support, abusing the power of Aqua Ring with Bottle or Urn of Shadows to quickly heal allies to full, or Urn of Shadows with Puddle Spirits for guaranteed kills. Use Aqua Ring and Ebb + Flow to keep allies alive during early fights, and control the lane, using the heals to push and prevent last hits. Holy Locket helps boost your healing and gives a quick recharge for popping your ultimate. Luxury Items like Bloodthorn or Refresher Orb can massively increase its damage. Your ultimate is good for turning big teamfights and breaking tanks, or securing brutal kills by pulling enemies into towers or towards allies with other stuns the same way you would playing as Pudge, Mars or Magnus.

LORE & HISTORY

Unveil the backstory and characteristics of this idea.

There is a peaceful river that runs through a small forest clearing, in a place far from any city or town. It is a place where dragonflies play along the edge of the water, where fish swim happily in the stream, where bullfrogs hop from lily pad to lily pad. More often than not, this peace is broken by the great battles of heroes in defense of their ancients that turn the waters red and litter them with powerful magic artifacts and the toxic debris from destructive spells. This violence displeases the river's guardian, its playful Nymph who calls herself Squirt. She is a lost spirit, a young girl from an age long forgotten who drowned while swimming drunk, her body never found or buried. Now she spends her idyllic afterlife protecting others who swim in the river from her own grim fate, and the river itself from those who would ruin its natural beauty. But as these battles for the destiny of the ancients drag on, she found her duties far more difficult than ever before, and now has gathered up an army of Puddle Sprites to end the battle once and for all and stop pollution. based on two different versions of an old hero concept: https://dotaconcept.com/hero/64 https://dotaconcept.com/hero/1948
