Here is a detailed overview of all Warden abilities and the Ability Point Order in which you must unlock the abilities in Deadlock:
While Warden has great tank potential, he shines greatly in thelane stagesdue to the constant flask damage and a stun ability. That is why you must maximize your flask ability to T3 early to get the slow fire rate buff. With that, you must also upgrade your second to keep staying tanky.
After getting T2 on your Willpower, max Last Stand and survive longer during any full-fledged battle. If you are playing a little passive with an already better tank in your team, you can swap your second skill with a third. Maximizing Binding Word early can get you a lot of control potential.
