Introduction Top

Frist of all I want to introduce myself. My name is Obnox and I live in Germany, so it is possible that my English is not that perfect. I played several games on high ranks before, most likely under the name "Obnox" or a name with the ending "-nox" like "Prednox" or "Deathnox". For a long time I was raiding with the guild "Affenjungs INC" in World of Warcraft and also participated "Melk Trupp" one of the best PvP guilds EU. In League of Legends I am curretnly Diamond 4, but since I focused on Heroes of the Storm I almost never play it. I am playing Heroes of the Storm since the technical alpha and have been since then on rank 1-5.

Basics Top

I will introduce you the DPS build of Butcher.

Pros


Good CCs (Slow, Stun)
Can easy chase for enemy Heroes
Nice Heal

Cons


Not that good Mobility
Long Cooldowns
Mana Problems

Basic Abilities


Q Hamstring
Deal 40 (+10 per level) damage and slow enemies by 49.92% fading over 2 seconds. Your next Basic Attack will strike immediately.

W Butcher's Brand
Deal 30 (+2.5 per level) damage to an enemy and cause your Basic Attacks against them to heal you for 75% of the damage done for 5 seconds. Healing doubled versus Heroes.

E Ruthless Onslaught
Charge at an enemy, becoming Unstoppable and gaining Movement Speed. If you reach the target, they are stunned for 1 second and take 60 (+10 per level) damage.


Heroic Abilities (R)


Furnace Blast
After a 3 second delay, fire explodes around you dealing 300 (+35 per level) damage to enemies.

Can be cast while using Ruthless Onslaught.

Lamb for the Slaughter

Talents Overview Top

Talents


Tier 1
Best choice is Vitctuals which will increase your survivability immense. If you have no or bad support in your team then this Talent is a must-have.

Another good choice is Invigoration with it you gain half of the Mana back and the Cooldown is reduced by 1 second. This is good for us because we can do more damage.



Tier 2
Envenom offers you extra damage and burst you need to kill someone and it is usually a great counter to stealth heroes.

Alternative: Cheap Shot

Tier 3
Abattoir
More Fresh Meat = More Damage, it also perfectly combine with the Tier 6 Talent Blood Frenzy


Tier 4 / Ultimate
Lamb for the Slaughter

You chain an enemy Hero preventing him for 4 seconds to chase you or to escape. In my opinion a really nice Talent.

Furnrae Blast


Tier 5
Burning Rage This Talent is constantly doing damage to your enemys. Especially in team fights this is really useful.

Alternative: Crave Flesh

Tier 6
Blood Frenzy 35% Attack Speed, this is insane



Tier 7
Bolt of the Storm When you play against a really hard team matchup which is always focusing you, then this Talent is a good choice because it is an excellent escape.

Nexus Blade With this talent you clearly win every 1v1 when you have stored 35 fresh meat.

I will update this guide as fast as I can.
