All you need to know about every build and talent for Ana! Lots of Ana specific tips and tricks and playstyle explanations as well! If I missed anything feel free to ask in comments section. Sergeant Ana explained as well!

5/15/2025 Patch - Ana got small buffs to baseline skills, also level 20 Eye of Horus can now be fired 1 at a time. Everything in video is still relevant, doesn't change much.

You already mentioned this in the Ding build, but Spell Power reduction is also a nice tech in E build since it just needs E4 to shine. Yes, you do miss out on the %dmg, but if they have some high spell damage hero you really want to shut down, I think it's a valid choice in E build as well. Especially since you're not dishing out the 8% that fast (E cd is not that short), your team might still need some other form of %dmg to help kill high HP targets. And say a W build Diablo might be more annoyed by having half his W healing denied than one instance of 8% max health as damage.

Hi Fan. I'm catching up with the videos, really helpful stuff, enjoying the Patreon content. Watching this one got me thinking- Do increased healing buffs stack? For example Stitches' lvl 1 talent Patchwork Creation or Hogger's lvl 4 "Hogger's Joggers" stack with Ana grenade.

I believe they do, this is a very rare occurrence so not 100% sure, but I am 100% sure that healing debuffs stack, so this should work the same way.

I like Eye of Horus for when the team isn't grouping as much. Usually a side lane will get ganked, and you will be with your primary group (because that is where your tank is), so if they dive you, they just die, but you can save people from any part of the map and secure a few kills too. I don't even usually use most of the shots, just enough to keep them from dying, then depending what's happening i'll top someone else off or just drop it. Helps a lot when they gank just before an objective, so it's 5v5 instead of 4v5.

Hey Fan! I've been climbing Gold in 3 stack with 2 friends and having Ana as 1 of my >50% win rate. I find grenade build my almost all time build because not only that maximizes what my team does, but also great when I play against self sustain enemies, or teams that clump up due to engage. My party mate that plays tanks such as Garrosh or Anub'Arak always gets in situations when he has a lot of people around him, making me to easy get 3-4 people value out of grenades. Also this build I find easy to use because whenever I get poked I just ask my party to stay around me and I get 90% healing increase on grenade which basically brings me close to full HP. I do play a bit scared reason why I usually avoid E build due to lack of self sustain. Maybe in situations when I am not solo Ana healer I find it more appealing. In case of Eye of Horus, at least in gold league I find it amazing due to enabling me to do what a Brightwing could do while staying safe. On maps such as Dragon Shire or Sky Temple I can assist my solo lane or the guy that gets ganked instantly or even take the kill if my solo laner brings his opponent low (I prio it for healing or stalling BTW). Just a particular element I want to ask you more, and that it is how should I play vs a KTZ or a Alarak. I find it hard sometimes to cleanse mini stuns to get that armor value, or when having a mixture of slows roots and stuns in enemy team sometimes my team get overwhelmed and I get close to unable to actually save them. About Alarak I just find him notorious and unable to react when I see him closing up to combo silence someone or me.. Should I just pick something else in these cases? I don't want to force Ana in all situations, but I just want to find a better way to deal with tough situations. Thanks

I had a game as W Alextrasza putting on steroids a Mephisto vs an Ana. Just because I know well Ana I knew how and when to bait her to grenade my W and that lead us to a series of kills on her in key moments. It depends a lot. A team mate IRL friend of mine used to say that having a button available doesn't imply pressing it. I sometimes tend to believe him

Against a KTZ you should definitely be taking root removal and removing the root the second KTZ hits it, that makes it impossible to hit his ult which will lower his damage dramatically. If they have a mix of stun/roots, you want to go for the talent that removes the most lethal one, so if they have Muradin+KTZ, you should figure out which person is doing more to kill your team. If its Mura get stun removal, if its KTZ get root removal. Againt an alarak if you are struggling to heal the person he combos, a better solution could be to just sleep the alarak before he combos. Alaraks usually run in a pretty straight line when they are approaching their combo target, making it an easy sleep to hit.
