Garrosh Hellscream

Warchief of the Horde

Garrosh is a high-damage melee Assassin, wielding the legendary axe Gorehowl.

Strengths:

Garrosh has a large health pool compared to other Assassins.

Mortal Wounds provides a lot of utility to you team, with the choice of Hellscream providing even more.

Both of Garrosh's Heroics offer large boosts in damage, with Hellscream providing damage to both you and your team, albeit for a shorter duration.

Battleborn is able to provide either sustain or damage.

Weaknesses:

Garrosh is exclusively close-range and is prone to being kited.

Garrosh is lacking in crowd control, so it is hard to pin enemies down.

Garrosh relies mainly on his basic attacks to damage enemies, so blinds are very potent against him.

Gorehowl's Hunger lacks utility for your team.

Stats:

Health: 1500 + (6%)

Health Regen: 10 + (20%)

Attack Damage: 130 + (6%)

Attack Speed: 1

Ill be the first one to give feedback for you.

So first off, im not sure the rage mechanic is needed. The same feel of a berserking orc warrior can be accomplished with a momentum based toolkit with low cooldowns and kill reset mechanics. Not to mention rage is the same mechanic sonya uses so unless it also works exactly the same it wouldn't be consistent.

D- Love it. Its the perfect amount of strong without being broken because it has to be stacked. And having a healing reduction ability at a baseline level gives him a specific niche no one else does yet.

Q- Again, i just dont feel like rage fits here which also makes this ability not fit. Sonya rage mechanic works well because she basically doesn't have cooldowns, theres always a moment where you can dump rage, with your concept you are limited by long cooldowns so it might as well not have a rage cost and just a simply CD. Now i understand the passives where more rage gives you more damage, but is that fun? you choose to do more damage by basic attacking or you choose to do more damage by using your abilities? I think theres better ways to give him sustain without a pimped out version of sonya's 7 talent

W- Kinda boring, which isn't a bad thing, but i feel like it could be more creative. A front cone cleave has been done to death.

E- I like it. Its seems fun enough BUT, i feel like it shouldn't be used as an escape, as i cant imagine Garrosh a person who wants to run away from fights. So im not sure how you could change that, but thats my opinion. Garrosh should 100% have some kind of engage, but not a disengage.

R1- Similar to the E and Q passive combined, doesn't bring or add anything to the play style.

R2- Thats a lot cooler. I honestly like it and the only critique to give on it is 50% is too much. No other vulnerability in the game is past 25% except nazeebo's 13 talent which gives him 30% physical vulnerability only. And also, spell armor is already covered by armor, no need to mention it.( there is psychical armor, spell armor, and then theres armor which covers both types.

Suggestions

Overall- Ditch the passive on every ability thing. Passives should only be used seldom as a tuning tool, not to enhance gameplay. If you want to buff the ability, buff the actual ability imo.

D- The stacking healing debuff is great, no critique there.

Q- I dont like the rage mechanic on him, and i dont like this ability as an extension. I get it, hes a warrior, but that didnt stop varian from having mana and it didnt detract him the trifecta warrior feel. Maybe some sort of victory rush type ability instead?

W- Boring imo. Perhaps make a more decision based skill rather than more mindless aoe (not just you, i mean the game in general has too much silly aoe), such as interacting with your trait stacks?

E- Idea is solid, but perhaps make it only as an engage rather than disengage somehow. That im not sure how you could accomplish, but something like the butchers E, where the chances of using it to run away is very low but its a great engage tool.

R1- Doesn't add anything notable or special to the kit, id redesign.

R2- Good ult, tune the number down slightly though. Even just a simple aoe 25% vulnerability would be strong.

Anyways thats my starting feedback, hope this was helpful
