Best support for Medusa

[SWAT V4]

From my experience, it has been Crystal Maiden with her mana regen aura.


But crystal maiden need not be in Medusa's lane(if not mid) to get the effect of the aura.
So, I was thinking of a dual support, a lane support for Medusa.


Which support hero from your experience works best in lane with Medusa?

Any defensive dual/trilane will do the trick.

No, I need a name, even though it could vary with situation.

Bane, Earthshaker. Dunno, it's situational.

What, CM? No. Medusa steals a ♥♥♥♥ ton of mana with a well placed Mystic snake. Not only this, but a proper DUsa build (Stacking Ultimate Orbs) gives you a lot of intelligence, thus a high mana regen stat.

Even then, Dusa's ult cancels all of CM damage, they don't synergize at all.

The way to go are either

A) Heroes which abilities help Dusa pull a petrifying stone gaze. Like Tide, Magnus and such. These two in particular, since the first reduces armor and the latter can buff Dusa's damage.

B) Heroes with abilities or ults that in some way enhance Dusa during her ult. Think Dazzle, Vengeful spirit, Slardar. Armor reduction is HUGE with that ult.

C) Heroes with abilities or ults that do strong physical damage. Cause while petrified, enemies have 100% magic res, but are not magic inmune. Someone mentioned WD, but also heroes like SS and so on.

This man speaks the truth, those two ults together are just as scary as a void + WD ult.

Venge is very good because her aura amplifies stat based damage which medusa usually has lots of (yasha, skadi, linkens). Combined with splitshot and wave of terror this can increase the overall damage output in team fights considerably. Also venge can use swap to save dusa which is sometimes necessary because of her poor mobility.

Also wd for his physical damage ult as someone already said.
