Design

King Rastakhan is the most powerful and oldest living troll known. He combines a muscular and brutal zandalari body and the mind of old and wise witch doctor. If that was not enough, he is infused by the powers of the troll gods, making him their representant on Azeroth.
Little is known about King Rastakhan since he rarely shows up. We know he is a very powerful witchdoctor, but unlike Sen'jin, he got a huge and powerful body. When we look at the king of trolls we do not expect him to be casting voodoos and hiding from enemies. His imposing presence must be felt as a huge and powerful Troll. His design is an attempt to sintesize all aspects of the trolls, making Rastakhan a mix of the brutal berserker and the spiritual witchdoctor. His kit allows him to be a strong bruiser, with defensive abilities and a increasing power when he is in dangerous situations. As a king, he also leads and buffs his allies. But his proud stance will make him lack of mobility. He should feel just like that huge badass guy in the movies who won't sprint, just slowly walks in and crushes everybody. Even with Trample at 20, the idea is that he just moves fast because he is huge and won't stop, like a mammoth.

ROLE
Rastakhan is a heavy damage bruiser that grows stronger as he looses HP. He is ultimatly strong against melee assassins and will excel on protecting ground, making him a great solo for objectives in Dragon Shire, or even blocking enemies way to pay doubloons in Blackhearts Bay, for exemple.

PLAYING AS KING RASTAKHAN
Playing as Rastakhan must feel like you are this huge and monstruous troll, marching to your enemie only to stomp it. And when you are fighting, you must feel the blood boiling up in your veins, reducing cooldowns as you bleed, adrenaline will boost you to hit an ability after another in pure frenezy. The closer you are to die, the more powerful and unstopabble you become. You must rely greatly on alives to use your maximum potential, since Rastakhan lacks of abilities for self heal or taz'dingo as Zul'jin.

PLAYING AS HIS ALLY
Rastakhan lack of mobility is his biggest weakness so you must help him to reach target. As a tank, either by positioning or crowd controlling, once you help the king to engage he will become a powerfull combatent. As a support, you must keep him alive but avoid keeping him at full life, since he is way more powerfull with lower HP. As assassin, once he engages, it's time to kill, taking vantage of his heroic buffs.

PLAYING AGAINST HIM
Rastakhan is very powerfull melee but he lacks of self heal and mobility, so you'll want to keep distance, poking and taunting.



I changed the Jin'rohk color so it's easier to know which one he is wielding, since they are pretty much the same but with the blade on the opposite side.

Would be great to see what you could do with him now from his BfA and raid info. I could see you doing two different heroics one based on Rezan and the other Bwonsamdi which would be awesome
