Playing Celeste
Celeste is easily my favorite hero to play lane with. Her amazing range helps her hold lane even against the biggest threats because she can play conservative and defensive, yet she can still pose as a offensive threat with her supernova Heliogenesis stars and Solar Storm. Her AOE can help quickly gain levels with minion kills.
Abilities
Heliogenesis is easily your best ability. Using it in bushes provides the vision necessary to avoid ganks, wich are easily your biggest threat. Use of supernova stars also helps catch enemies by surprise with it's damage, and a couple early kills. Conserve your energy though as over use of Heliogenesis can put you in a lot of trouble when you find yourself with no energy against enemy heroes.
Core Collapse can be used to briefly stun your enemies making it a great tool for Celeste. It can be used to secure a kill on retreating enemies, or to land a supernova star. It can also be used defensively to help secure the escape of your teamates or for yourself.
Solar Storm crosses all the way across the map. Enough said. It can completely destroy your enemies, or clear away a crowd.
Core Items
Eve of Harvest is priority number one to provide the needed energy to keep using
Heliogenesis.
Frostburn and
Journey Boots are also both essential for damage and mobility. Now, unless the whole opposing team is weapon,
Aegis is the next in line for purchase.
5th/6th Slot
Shatterglass will provide the most damage to your specials. Some players even run two of them for serious damage.
Broken Myth will help against shielded heros like Catherine.
Metal Jacket is essential against
Ringo and heavy gankers like
Krul.
Celeste is a great pick for beginner's trying to learn the game, and can dominate when used by more experienced players. She's one of my favorite hero's and I'm sure she will be your's too when using this build.
