Strategy

Ursa has low base damage so you might want to hit creep once or twice to apply Fury Swipes before lasthitting.

You can jump over walls, cliffs or into treelines with Earthshock.

Ursa typically farms very slowly before Battlefury so you need to play actively and look for kills to gain networth.

Ursa can take Roshan on his own fairly early due to Fury Swipes stacking. Get a smoke and Morbid mask or call a teammate with you to tank Roshan early on to secure it.

Itemize against kiting as you don't necessarily want to switch targets too often due to Fury Swipes stacking.

Consider buying aghanims shard after your 3 core items to help with tankiness.

Make sure to take tormentors with your team to secure the aghanims shards.

Counter Strategy

Keep distance from Ursa as he is able to build up damage against you with Fury Swipes.

Consider saving your disables against Ursa's Enrage status resistance increase.

Eul's Scepter is great for kiting Enrage as it doesn't get affected by its status resistance.

Ghost Scepter, Force Staff and Hurricane Pike are great for kiting Ursa.

Ursa is able to take Roshan early on. Ward and check Roshan frequently before the 20 minute mark.

Lore

Ulfsaar the Warrior is the fiercest member of an ursine tribe, protective of his land and his people. During the long winters, while the mothers sleep and nurse their cubs, the males patrol the lands above as tireless, vigilant defenders of their ancient ways. Hearing dim but growing rumors of a spreading evil, Ulfsaar headed out beyond the boundaries of his wild wooded homeland, intending to track down and destroy the threat at its source, before it could endanger his people. He is a proud creature with a bright strong spirit, utterly trustworthy, a staunch ally and defender.
