Weaver is a ranged agility hero commonly played either as a solo offlaner or as a same lane farmer.
With abilities that make him both highly elusive and very mobile, he is a tough hero to lockdown, but his low health pool makes him easy to kill if he does get caught.
Skills
Skill Shukuchi first to protect against potential level 1 ganks. Also max it first, to increase its damage and significantly lower the cooldown.
Skill and max Geminate Attack second; a passive ability that gives you an extra attack whenever it’s off cooldown.
Get an early point in The Swarm (level 8 is recommended), but max it last. Be sure to cast it on enemy heroes in teamfights; don’t under-estimate its utility.
Always get Time Lapse (levels 6, 11 and 16), use it to escape from sticky situations or to refill your health pool when nuked.
