Hades

God of The Underworld

Hades is a strength melee hero that excels at initiating and surviving in fights. The best lane that he fits in is the offlane, since he can lane and survive confidently against multiple enemy heroes. Gaining XP and farming is not too much of a problem for him, since his three-headed companion is there to pull the lane and tank the neutral camps.

His abilities don't deal too much damage, however they're great at keeping Hades alive and his foes under control.

PROS :
  • Very durable and self-sustainable
  • Great at disabling the enemy heroes
  • Takes away the pressure from the team in fights; can survive being focused a prolonged amount of time
CONS :
  • Not very mobile
  • Relatively low damage output
  • Can only fulfill one role

Primary Abilities

Trident worthy of a God, set them ablaze!
Tainted Scales
Hades has spent so much time in Hell that his armor has melted over and over again, turning into a tough armor to penetrate once he came in contact with the world. Foes who dare attack Hades have their base attack damage reduced.

conclusion & thank you!

To sum it up, Hades can fit in any team composition and played properly can really make the difference in a match. I think building sustainability items such as Guardian Greaves, Pipe of Insight, Crimson Guard and so on to keep the team alive in fights even more is the best path for him to follow.

This is my concept, thank you for checking it out and please let me know what you think! :)

Hero concepts are awesome! :D

I think it's boring. Nothing special.
