Weaver

Weaver's lane identity is a mobile, self-sufficient farmer who avoids all-in trades early. Winning Weaver players prioritize farming safely and hitting their first core items (Dragon Lance or Desolator) around the 21-minute mark—the data shows both items correlate with 53%+ win rate at this timing. Weaver should avoid extended teamfights before these items come online, relying instead on Shukuchi for positioning and The Swarm for trading from range.

The 20–30 minute window is Weaver's critical spike. The data shows win rate stabilizes around 50% once Dragon Lance or Desolator complete, but the real power comes at 25 minutes when Lesser Crit enters the build (59.6% win rate). Once this item completes, winning Weaver players tend to group for teamfights and leverage their mobility to kite around objectives. Smoke ganks (coordinated ambushes using smoke of deceit) and rotation plays become viable as Weaver transitions from pure farming to active fighting.

Weaver's late-game win condition is extended teamfights where mobility and sustained damage output decide the outcome. By 30+ minutes, Weaver builds toward Black King Bar and Demon Edge (both appearing at 27 min with 55–63% win rate), providing survivability and crit scaling. The data shows Weaver's win rate dips slightly in the 25–50 minute range but recovers at 40+ minutes and climbs into the 52–54% range after 60 minutes—indicating Weaver is a true ultra-late hero who wins through patience and proper kiting. In fights, Weaver should position at max attack range, use Shukuchi reactively to dodge damage, and maintain distance while The Swarm applies pressure.
