Welcome! to the wonderful world that
is Alarak! My name is: Yigma and it is a pleasure to have you reading up on my most loved hero in Heroes of the Storm
I have gathered a tremendous amount
of knowledge that I would like to share with you. Feel free to leave a comment
on what you would like to see added in
this guide. Enjoy!


Classified as a Melee Assassin Alarak completely decimates victims that dare come near him. As opposed to other heroes within this role, he uses bursts of ability damage to inflict pain to his targets. With this in mind, many truly consider him to be a "Mage", placed high up on the ladder with other mages. Typically, mages are very weak and frail. However, this hero has a decent health pool and some added survival benefits. Let's start!


Discord Strike: Cast this ability to silence any hero approaching death and about to use their escape spell such as Recall. Also, try & familiarize yourself with the delay.

Telekinesis: Can be casted to displace yourself or enemy targets near your vicinity. Very similar to his previous spell, this also requires quite some practice to fully master.

Lightning Surge: Should be constantly casted to clear minions in lanes and harass enemy heroes who over-extend. Also can be used to give some much needed health.

Sadism: Since this is a very big boost into your damage, it is important to properly position yourself so all your spells land on your intended hero & your team follows up.




Talent Build

"Get Over Here"

Alarak's entire tool-kit revolves around proper positioning and a team that can react quickly to it. Typically, you see him picked up in the upper echelon of the competitive scene by talented individuals and teams alike. This particular build centers around improving abilities that don't require specific events to be good in a team fight. There aren't too many variations to his talent path, except his level 10 ultimate talents, which I will explain in the detailed info section, down below.
