Updated · live data refreshed 1 hour ago · every 6 hours
Bane works best with heroes like as Tigreal and Luo Yi who can pull enemies together so he can do even more damage with his AOE.
Bane is countered by Mages that deal heavy damage from afar, such as Vale and Xavier who can deal significant damage to him before he can get in range.
Level up in this order when playing Bane:
Ale
Shark Bite
Crab Claw Cannon
Cruel pirate leader, Franco's sworn enemy.
Bane infuses his weapon with a stack of Tidal Energy each time he uses a skill (up to 2 stacks). Each of his subsequent Basic Attacks consumes a stack to deal Physical Damage equal to (+95% Total Physical Attack) plus 4(+0.4*Hero Level)% of the target's Max HP to nearby enemies.
Bane fires his Crab Claw Cannon in the target direction, dealing 150 (+160% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to the first enemy hit and then 150% damage to a random enemy behind them (prioritizes enemy heroes). Enemies hit are slowed by 10 (+10% Total Magic Power)% for 1s. Every 100 Physical Attack Bane possesses reduces this skill's cooldown by an additional 8%.
Bane chugs his ale, recovering 200 (+150% Total Magic Power) plus 5 (+1.5% Total Magic Power)% of his lost HP and gaining 50% extra Movement Speed that decays over 2.5s. Use Again: Bane spits venom in the target direction, dealing 140 (+130% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage (scales up to 200% with charging time) to enemies in a fan-shaped area. Every 100 Magic Power Bane possesses additionally reduces this skill's cooldown by 7%.
Bane summons a school of sharks to charge in the target direction, dealing 700 (+80% Total Physical Attack) (+150% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage to enemies hit, knocking them airborne for 0.6s, and slowing them by 75% (decays over 3s). This skill deals 40% damage to turrets.
Skill Order: Prioritise skills in this order — Skill 3 → Skill 1 → Skill 2.

In teamfights, use Bane's 2nd Skill to close in and catch multiple enemies with his Ultimate. Use an enhanced Basic Attack when the enemies are knocked airborne, then use his 2nd Skill and another enhanced Basic Attack. Finally, use his 1st Skill and enhanced Basic Attack to chase and finish off the enemy.

In the laning phase, use Bane's 2nd Skill to get close to the enemy and hit them with an enhanced Basic Attack. Then use his 1st Skill to slow the enemy followed by another enhanced Basic Attack. And end with his 2nd Skill again with another enhanced Basic Attack.

First Item for me is Holy Crystal because once you build it early game you can get bonus magic damage every levels so building it early game can give you bonuses. You can choose to build Sky Peircer or Blood Wings as your second item it depends in your playstyle. For the rest of the build just follow these. If you want your last items for defense you can do that too.
Retribution · Jungle Special
Inspire
Bargain Hunter
Impure Rage
Bane skills cooldown in early game is slow so I usually pick Inspire so he's skill cooldowns will be shorter. Bargain Hunter so he can get a discount in items so he can build items faster. Impure Rage because for his Magic Damage.
This is my First Guide, So sorry if I missed something and this is based on my opinions in play style for him. Thank you

Battle Spell. Bane is an early game dependent hero based on what I experience because he needs to have items fast so I recommend using him as a Jungler or Gold Lane if you prefer. Retribution because it's for Junglers. In using Retribution use Ice Retribution so he can chase down enemies.
