Primal Companion
Scepter grants new ability
PASSIVE: No
Creates a Brewling based on Brewmaster's current Drunken Brawler Stance.
A new Brewling cannot be resummoned for 3s if the current one takes damage from enemy Heroes or hero-controlled units. If the Brewling dies, the ability goes on cooldown for 70 seconds.
Only one Brewling can exist at a time. If Brewmaster uses Primal Split, the existing Brewling disappears.

Mangix doesn't hold to it by rule, but he vaguely recalls an old master musing that, if one could manage, scaring up a companion was always preferable to drinking alone.

Strategy
Get {urn-of-shadows} as soon as possible as it allows you snowball off of first kill. Soul Release activates Cinder Brew.
Ask your laning partner to activate Cinder Brew if you can't yourself.
Make sure to cyclone an important target at least twice during Primal Split.
Don't forget that Storm Panda has AoE dispel which can remove certain spells, runes and damage basic illusions.
The Earth Panda carries all the auras and AoE effects like Radiance or Cloak of Flames.
Look to use your aura items like Crimson Guard and Pipe before Primal Split. But beware of your mana pool.
Counter Strategy
Try to lock down or silence {brewmaster} and kill him before he uses Primal Split.
Don't fight Brewmaster's Primal Split unless you have damage to kill all the Brewlings.
Storm Brewling's Dispel Magic is an AoE basic dispel. So, avoid purchasing dispellable items.
{black-king-bar} is amazing against all of the crowd control {brewmaster} has.
Lore
Deep in the Wailing Mountains, in a valley beneath the Ruined City, the ancient Order of the Oyo has for centuries practiced its rites of holy reverie, communing with the spirit realm in grand festivals of drink. Born to a mother's flesh by a Celestial father, the youth known as Mangix was the first to grow up with the talents of both lineages. He trained with the greatest aesthetes of the Order, eventually earning, through diligent drunkenness, the right to challenge for the title of Brewmaster, that appellation most honored among the contemplative malt-brewing sect.
As much drinking competition as mortal combat, Mangix for nine days drank and fought the elder master. For nine nights they stumbled and whirled, chugged and struck, until at last the elder warrior collapsed into a drunken stupor, and a new Brewmaster was named. Now the new, young Brewmaster calls upon the strength of his Oyo forebears to speed his staff. When using magic, it is to his spirit ancestors that he turns. Like all Brewmasters before him, he was sent out from his people with a single mission. He wanders the land, striving toward enlightenment through drink, searching for the answer to the ancient spiritual schism. Hoping to think the single thought that will unite the spirit and physical planes again.
