Introduction

Hello. I am Muth303, and if you are reading this, it means you are probably thinking of getting Vulcan, or just want to learn how to play him. While I do not consider myself to be a super-pro Vulcan player by any means, I have used him enough that I have a good idea of what works, what doesn't work, and how to go about using him.

Vulcan can basically be described as an Ability powered, Tank. He uses his ability's to push relatively hard to their tower. He provides amble amounts of damage as well as CC in team fights. Vulcan's niche in that he is one of the best mid lanes in the game, his incredible wave clear as well as damage scares foes off. He takes some getting used to, but once you start getting good with the ability to place your turrets an buildings, he is a very fun god to play as.

Lets go over a quick rundown of Vulcan's Pros and Cons.

PROS
+ Strong Duelist
+ Fast Wave Clear
+ Lots of CC with [Thumper XVI]
+ Very Long Range With [Inferno Cannon]

CONS
- Squishy Early Game
- Can Be Ganked Early
- Not Many Escapes
- Low Speed
- Long CD on Spells
- Very Mana Heavy
