Hero Skills

Basically, Balmond's attacks are aimed at a crowd of enemies, he has a strong crushing damage and many tools with which regeneration is activated. Below we will take a closer look at all the skills of the hero - 3 active and one passive buff.

Passive Skill - Bloodthirst

The buff provides Balmond with survivability. After each completed kill of a monster or minion in a lane, the character recovers 5% of his total health. When killing an enemy - 20%.

First Skill - Soul Trap

The character dashes forward until he reaches a target or a marked distance, dealing damage along the way. If he successfully hits an enemy, the defeated one will be thrown back and receive a slowing effect of 30% for 2 seconds.

Skill XNUMX - Tornado Strike

Balmond swings his axe, dealing damage to all nearby enemies around him over 100 seconds. The longer the skill is used, the stronger the damage. If the hero hits the same targets, he can deal increased damage, up to XNUMX%. Has a chance to deal critical damage.

Ultimate - Deadly Confrontation

After a short preparation, the character makes a strong blow with an ax, dealing massive damage in a fan-shaped area. The damage is increased by 20% of the target's lost health points, and the additional physical attack is dealt as true damage.

After the ultimate, defeated enemies will also be slowed by 40% for 2 seconds. If used against minions and monsters in the forest, the skill will deal up to 1 thousand damage.

Suitable emblems

Balmond is most often taken to play through the forest, but sometimes he can defend himself on the experience line. We have put together two builds that will be able to unleash his combat potential in these two roles.

Fighter Emblems

• Agility — +4% to movement speed.
• Experienced hunter — increased damage to Lord and Turtle, faster farming in the forest.
• Killer feast - HP regeneration and increased movement speed after killing an enemy.

Tank Emblems

• Gap — additional adaptive penetration.
• Experienced hunter — +15% damage to Lord and Turtle.
• Shock Wave - massive damage depending on HP.

Best Spells

• Flash - a combat spell that gives an additional dash for dodging or to catch up with an opponent.
• Revenge - A useful choice for close combat. With this ability, you can easily deflect incoming damage.

How to play Balmond

Of the advantages of Balmond, we highlight that the character is endowed with devastating area damage, can inflict pure damage due to skills. He also has strong regeneration abilities - lifesteal is triggered from every kill, whether it's an NPC or someone from the enemy team.

Of the negative points, we note that most often the role of the initiator falls on Balmond, which can cause difficulties when playing against farmed magicians or shooters who will easily kill the hero from a long distance. The character itself is slow, but this is leveled out thanks to his dash.

At an early stage, the hero is already quite strong compared to other playable characters. Do not take more than you can afford - very often players make fatal mistakes, considering the hero to be almost invulnerable from the first minutes.

Farm, upgrade, if possible kill and help your allies. Try to stay close to the tower, if there are several enemies against you at once, you will not fall into a trap. After the appearance of the ultimate, you can get involved in single battles, especially if you overtook a lone mage or arrow. Thin targets are your priority until the moment you collect powerful armor.

Having reached the middle and final stages, Balmond grows stronger. If you are in lane, engage in active pushing, and after the destruction of the tower, walk around the map and arrange mass battles. Try to hit several enemies with skills at once, because the hero has good area attacks.

In the position of the killer, try not to climb ahead of the fighters and tanks, play carefully at first and wait for the right moment. Then calmly break into the epicenter, taking light kills, and easily catch up with the rest of the enemy team with the help of jerks.

Best combo on Balmond:

1. First skill - a jerk to shorten the distance.
2. Second skill trigger a tornado effect, prevent enemies from running away quickly, and increase damage with a sustained attack.
3. Finish the job powerful ultimate, reducing as many health points as possible with the first two attacks.
4. If that's not enough, add basic attack.

Balmond is a light, but very ferocious fighter, a bloodthirsty forester. We wish you good luck in mastering the heroes, waiting for your comments below!
