Overview
Ares is the most aggressive guardian in the game. His chains deal significant damage for a support, and No Escape forces the entire enemy team to either use their escape ability or get pulled into a death sentence.

Tips & Strategy
- Blink Rune into No Escape is the classic combo. Blink into the enemy team, ult immediately, and follow up with chains on anyone who used their escape.
- Shackles cripple enemies, preventing dashes and leaps. Chain the enemy jungler when they dive your carry to shut down their escape.
- Each aura item you build increases your passive damage. Ares deals more damage the more defensive items he has.
