Dark Willow

Dark Willow: Ranged, position 4 (soft support), Nuker, Disabler, Escape. In patch 7.41f the hero has a 48.8% win rate in pubs and a 7.6% pick rate.

A slight flutter from the shadows may be all an enemy sees of Dark Willow, as she eludes pursuit and controls her foe's movements with cunning fae tricks. Calling upon powers far more ancient than any scholarly magic, she binds enemies in place before unleashing the full wrath and terror of the fae realm upon them.
