Heroes with Self-Healing

In the Deckard Cain Meta Tier List made by @Oxygen, @MagikMurlok asked if someone could compile a list of Heroes that have strong self-sustain that can be viable in matches that features no Supports. I decided to help.

I ended making a list of all non-Support Heroes that have any form of self-healing. Took me around 6 hours to compile every single nook and cranny (with all the revisions and edits), so here it is! I hope this help. Any feedback is welcome.

I've also included a suggested build for each character to use in the event that there is no Support in the team, aimed at maximizing survivability.

Special thanks to @ExorionAether for the help with talents and Heroes I missed, forgot or did not include originally for other reasons.

ASSASSINS

  • Alarak (suggested build)
    • Lightning SurgeLightning Surge provides a decent sustain, which becomes even stronger with the talent Sustaining PowerSustaining Power (1) and Lightning BarrageLightning Barrage (16), with the latter allowing Alarak to cast two Lightning SurgeLightning Surges in succession, thus doubling its effects. 
  • Cassia (suggested build)
    • Ring of the LeechRing of the Leech (4) provides passive self-healing to Cassia when dealing damage to any opponents inflicted with Blind.
      • Any talent that increases Cassia's damage in general will increase the healing gained from this talent.
    • Plate of the WhalePlate of the Whale (4) provides extra passive life regeneration, as well increasing her maximum health once completed.
  • Falstad (suggested build)
    • Has access to the Hammer GainsHammer Gains (4) talent, meaning that any additional talents or buffs that increase his Attack Speed and Basic Attack Damage will increase this talent's performance.
  • Fenix (suggested build)
    • Fenix is an exception to this list, because while he doesn't feature any talents that replenish his life, his passive Shields from Shield CapacitorShield Capacitor pretty much adds an extra layer of sustain.
      • To avoid confusion, I will not be listing similar talents for non-Support Heroes that have access to shielding (Johanna, Zarya, etc.)
    • Rapid RechargeRapid Recharge (13) and Auxiliary ShieldsAuxiliary Shields (13) can both be counted as a form of improved sustain, as they aid in replenishing his Shields
    • Unconquered SpiritUnconquered Spirit grants him a massive boost of shields.
  • Gul'dan (suggested build)
    • Has excellent self-sustain with Drain LifeDrain Life, which is part of his core gameplay interacting with his ability to sap his life to restore mana through Life TapLife Tap.
    • Has access to talents such as Consume SoulConsume Soul (4) HealthstoneHealthstone (16) which provides extra self-sustain aside from Drain LifeDrain Life.
    • The Drain LifeDrain Life can be picked to increase its performance, but they often have compete with better talents, so I wouldn't recommend them. However they can work really well in a non-Support composition that features a solid frontline.
  • Illidan (suggested physical build; suggested ability build)
    • Betrayer's ThirstBetrayer's Thirst provides mindless sustain, as you just have hit stuff to get heals.
    • Has access to talents like Thirsting BladeThirsting Blade (7) and Hunter's OnslaughtHunter's Onslaught (7) which further improves his self-healing.
      • Talents that increase the damage of Illidan's Ability Damage will increase the healing from Hunter's OnslaughtHunter's Onslaught, such as Marked for DeathMarked for Death (16)
    • Any talents or buffs that increase his Attack Speed and/or his Basic Attack Damage will improve the performance of Betrayer's ThirstBetrayer's Thirst, such as Unending HatredUnending Hatred (1).
  • Kael'thas (suggested build)
    • Fel InfusionFel Infusion (1) heals Kael'thas when activating Verdant SpheresVerdant Spheres. Not much healing, but hey, it's something!

    • Assimilation MasteryAssimilation Mastery (7) provides extra passive health regeneration.

    • SubmergeSubmerge (20) puts Ragnaros in stasis and heals him.

      • This effect can be further improved by Give Me More!Give Me More! (16). 
        • Fight or FlightFight or Flight (4) and Fuel The RushFuel The Rush (7) both decrease the cooldown of Adrenaline RushAdrenaline Rush, therefore allowing Raynor to use it more often.
    • Behemoth ArmorBehemoth Armor increases Raynor's maximum health by a flat amount, and is further increased each time he hits enemies with his trait, Give 'Em Some PepperGive 'Em Some Pepper, therefore further improving his sustain.

TOP 10 BEST PUBSTOMPERS WITHOUT SUPPORT AID

  1. Fenix: as long his Shield doesn't drop completely, he has one of the most powerful lane presences in the game, essentially having two healthbars. And if losing his Shields he can simply retreat and let them replenish again. Just be careful with hard engages, stuns and damage-over-time (as each tick will put Shield CapacitorShield Capacitor on cooldown).
  2. Malthael: ridiculous sustain that allows him to 1v2 or even 1v3 under the right circumstances. Make sure to hit as many opponents as possible with Basic Attacks to maximize his sustain.
  3. Dehaka: incredibly sticky and slippery, with a global presence that allows him to engage and disengage at ease. His trait combined with AdaptationAdaptation makes him really hard to kill.
  4. Blaze: powerful lane presence and one of the best self-sustains in the entire game.
  5. Diablo: his recent rework made him absurdly resilient, with a self-sustain that can surpass Blaze's under the right circumstances.
  6. Sonya: still one of the strongest solo laners in the game, with reliable self-sustain, great damage overall, and strong engage potential.
  7. The Butcher: with a high risk, high reward gameplay style, he can become unkillable, but requires a really strong frontline to keep him well protected, as well at least one backline Hero that can harass enemies at long range.
  8. Medivh: a Support labelled as a Specialist. With a very versatile kit, he can provide damage, mobility, vision, crowd-control and most importantly, damage immunity and healing. ANY team without a Support greatly benefits from Medivh.
  9. Thrall: very strong on really long matches, as his most powerful quest talents require a lot of farming. At the endgame he deal eye-watering damage while healing for huge chunks of health.
  10. Illidan: with his passive healing, he is a no-brainer. He can easily harass the backline and disengage, forcing the enemy team to waste cooldowns and allow the allied team to retaliate.

 

THE TOP 5 BEST SELF-SUSTAIN TEAM COMBINATIONS

Disclaimer: very team here will feature Medivh. He is essentially a Support classified as a Specialist. Adding him almost feels like cheating. But everyone knows that Medivh Cheats!Medivh Cheats!!!

  1. Stitches, Sonya, Kel'Thuzad, Kael'thas, Medivh.
  2. Garrosh, Stitches, The Butcher, Kel'Thuzad, Medivh.
  3. ETC, Blaze, Fenix, Kel'Thuzad, Medivh.
  4. Johanna, Cassia, Raynor, Fenix, Medivh.
  5. Johanna, Blaze, Sgt. Hammer, Li-Ming, Medivh.

Varian with twin swords and second wind has absolutely stupid healing.

Yeah, in QM where there is often no healer, I pretty much always go twin blades (if we don't already have another tank). It's so powerful, but counterable by hard CC like stuns.

      I'm working on migrating form doomhammer to realms where aome friends have characters (for guild stuff further down the line)
      So i'm making some new characters and iv'e decided that until i know more about the unlocking of the mag'har orcs that my horde main will be a warrior.
      My issue is that i cant decide between an orc or a pandaren. Because they both have a racial ability that works well for a warrior.
      I'm hoping somebody could give me a little a little advice on which would be the best choice.
