Kardel Sharpeye - The Dwarven Sniper

August 28th, 2008 | Posted by admin in Agility, Dota Heroes, Dota Tips, Featured, Intelligence, Light Tavern, Morning Tavern, Sentinel


Kardel Sharpeye is a testament to his name and race. Using only his finely honed skills of marksmanship and his trusty rifle, he systematically destroys his opponents from afar. Taking great care to aim for the most vulnerable of areas, he is capable of severely injuring an opponent, and with a little extra time, has been known to simply dispose of an enemy in a single shot. His rifle is equipped with a secondary barrel, capable of launching a short burst of shrapnel at close range, causing massive damage.

Kardel Sharpeye Getting Started/Tips Dota Guide

Choose his third skill, because it give him the edge to be in a far distance against arm attacks. Second skill is his headshot, it can stun enemies and has a bonus damage. Focus this two stills until level 5 then select Assassinator when you reached level 6, the focus again to your third and second skill. Kardel is a soft character and have a low moving speed so as early as possible, you need to assemble the Lothar’s Edge for escaping enemy heroes. You may use it to surprise the enemy when they are off guard. I refer focusing on the stat attribute than the first skill.

    I love Kardel Sharpeye. This hero is good to use when just starting out and learning Dota because it is a range hero

    i find that the skill build of pumping scatter shot from lvls 12 to 15 ineffective. especially against strength heroes. it has to be a flexible build btwn headshot or scatter shot with take aim still being foccused on.
