Offlaner
An offlaner, or "position three", is a hero who plays in the offlane. Their main task is to survive under pressure, prevent the enemy carry from farming, and gain experience. In the mid-game, they often take on the role of an initiator or tank, starting fights and creating space for their team. The term "offlaner" comes from the English phrase"hard lane".
