4. Rehgar's Synergies and Counters

Rehgar synergizes with Rehgar is a strong melee Assassin and Tank Supporter. As such, aggressive Heroes like Illidan, Kerrigan or E.T.C. benefit a lot from Earthbind Totem and from Ancestral Healing, in particular. When playing with these Heroes, we usually recommend picking Earth Shield at Level 13 to further bolster their defences. Rehgar is countered by Due to the fact that Rehgar relies a lot on saving pressured allied targets with Ancestral Healing, anti-healing effects on Heroes such as Varian or Ana can negate one of his strongest abilities. Due to the relatively short casting range on most of his abilities, Rehgar is quite susceptible to getting intercepted by enemy crowd control and high mobility Heroes such as Tracer or Illidan.

On larger maps like Warhead Junction, Rehgar struggles a little due to the reduced movement speed of his Ghost Wolf form. On those battlegrounds, we recommend picking Wolf Run at Level 1 to compensate for this drawback.

There is hardly any other support Hero that can be as versatile and adaptable as Rehgar. Rehgar's kit, which consists of a mixture of heals, shields, and crowd control allows him to adapt very nicely to the flow of the game. His exceptional mobility granted by his Ghost Wolf trait, allows him to clear Mercenary Camps more quickly while at the same time providing him with excellent mobility both in and out of combat.

Rehgar's strong single target healing capabilities, but also his exceptional offensive potential using Lightning Shield or even Bloodlust if the need arises, make him an ideal match with most melee Assassins, especially Illidan, Thrall, or Kerrigan, who greatly benefit from his Ancestral Healing Heroic Ability, which is capable of almost instantly restoring even severely injured allies. Talents such as Cleanse, Earth Shield, or Storm Shield will protect your teammates very effectively as well.
