Hera damages enemies in a cone in front of her before opening a portal for Argus to attack through. Enemy minions hit by this cone are knocked into Argus' path. Argus then slams his fists at the target location dealing heavy damage. If both of his fists connects with an enemy, it deals 15% extra damage.

If Argus is active, Argus shines with the same Divine power as Hera, causing him to deal radiant damage and move at an increased rate.

Argus, the Defender

4 Y
Hera brings Argus crashing down at a location, damaging and knocking up enemies. On landing Argus will attack the nearest target. Hera can control where Argus moves through refiring this ability onto an enemy or if he has a target, to recall him. While recalled Argus will defend Hera and attack anyone that gets close. Argus has a hit chain that starts with a normal basic attack, into a ground circle AoE slowing enemies by 20% for 1s, into a line attack.

Always try to hit the enemy with 2nd skill so that it can be easy and secure to hit with your 1rst.

To secure your kill, use her main combo:
4-3-2-1, easy.

I like to start with aegis because in case of a gank or if the enemy mid is playing aggressive you can always drop Argus and do her main combo, usually they will keep trying to kill you and not Argus, after mitigating great damage with your amazing shield (3rd skill) you activate aegis and keep mitigating damage while Argus does the dirty work, after all, she only dirties her hands against truly powerful threats.

In late game it could be tempting to use your 3rd to get to the team fights faster but this is something you should avoid, it's better to get to the fight a bit late and do her main combo so that you can deal more damage with Argus' aura. In order to pull this off you must always use wards and be aware of the map and where your enemies are.

I'm main Hera and I always have lots of fun playing her, hope these little tips can help you main this amazing Goddess.

PD: Sorry if the page looks rustic, this is my first guide but I will do my best to update it with better looks :)
