Threat Hero Notes
1
   No Threat
2
 Phinn His stun isn't that long, also, because he is really slow, fairy dust will just make him even more slower, so that phinn won't escape.
2
 Lance It's really fun messing with lance by hiding in the bushes and disappearing, this causes lance's impale to miss.
3
 Krul Krul can be easily countered because his spectral smite ability requires full stacks to receive full healing and damage against heroes, but the fairy dust can slow him down so that he won't be able to reach his targets.
4
 Joule Joule's stun can deal a lot of damage if she were to go with crystal power. But since her abilities all require predictions, going into stealth is flicker's only chance of winning against joule.
5
 Adagio Adagio's ultimate can't stun flicker unless he's in the area, and if he is burning with arcane fire.
5
 Ardan Similar to adagio, Arden's ultimate can't stun flicker unless he's in the area and tries to pass through the barrier.
5
 Glaive Glaive's afterburn can stun flicker if he tries to use his ultimate.
6
 Skye Her mobility can make it hard to escape even if flicker's fairy dust is active. Her stun can also prevent flicker from using his ultimate.
6
 Petal Her munions will try to hunt flicker down and other allies using stealth, also her brambleboom seeds can explode if flicker accidentally steps on it while in stealth.
7
 Catherine Even if Catherine can stun flicker with "merciless pursuit", however this can be easily countered with fairy dust.
8
   No Threat
9
 Celeste Celeste's heroic perk can easily search for flicker if her basic attacks hasn't landed yet.
9
 Fortress His ultimate has wolves that will hunt flicker down, so basically stealth is useless at this point.
9
 Gwen Her skedaddle can counter the fairy dust, so that she won't be slowed down.
10
   No Threat

Willow whisper Top

Willow whisper is flicker's heroic perk. It is very useful for spying on enemy carrys,running away from danger, and it can be used anytime as long as flicker is hiding in the brush. If used properly, flicker can be a threat to enemies because it can be used to trick enemies who are threatening to flicker. Many tactics can be made by captains who use flicker because of its stealth. Also it is very fun to use flicker once you know how he can be used offensively and defensively.

How to support your carry Top

Usually carrys are extremely vulnerable, especially in the early game. So be sure to check on your carry, and make sure that he or she isn't harmed. If flicker were to learn fairy dust at level 1, he can protect his carry by slowing down the enemy jungles, doing so will get your carry to safety.

But when you reach the milestone of level 6, flicker's ultimate can support the whole map, let's say that flicker is in the jungle with a jungler, and your carry is being attacked by the enemy team, his only hope is if flicker uses his ultimate and make the carry stealthy.

Offensive strategies Top

Flicker is not only used for defense, he can also be very useful in being an offensive roamer. So let's say the enemy team is hiding in the bushes, flicker can be stealthy and go in there without the enemies knowing, the rest is up to the player to choose, he can use fairy dust if the enemies are at low health, or flicker can use his ultimate to get his allies to ambush the enemies. Another strategy is to use fairy dust and binding light to make sure that the enemies are rooted and vulnerable to ranged heroes.

Countering enemies who pose as a threat to flicker. Top

Most of the heroes who have abilities that can stun can be countered with a reflex block, but just in case that isn't available. Flicker can run to the nearest bush and disappear.some enemies require physical contact with flicker to actually stun him, for example Catherine, using fairy dust can also make sure that her ability doesn't reach you.
