==Tips and Tricks==
===Hero Synergy===
=== Strategy ===
Nyru is a fast, long ranged magic damage hero, with some support capabilities. Nyru has high damage and can be quickly deployed anywhere due to high speed, making him useful in many stages. He is effective against armored and flying enemies alike, especially when using his Sentinel Wisps ability, which provide more ranged magic damage temporarily.
If absolutely necessary, Nyru can tank against low-medium damage enemies for enough time to deploy reinforcements or bring over your other hero. 
Nyru can also provide support, by using Enfeeblement Charm and weakening the damage of enemies in an area so that your allies last longer. His hero spell, Root Defender, deals moderate damage along part of a lane, but it also slows down enemies so that your towers and other hero have more time to attack enemies. It doesn’t work against flying enemies, however.
A tip to keep in mind is that when a blinker stuns Nyru, if Sentinel Wisps were already summoned, they can still attack the blinker.
