Overview
Since hylos got a new mythic skin heres some tips when using this hero.
Strengths
The longer the fight last the more damage he will deal to enemies.
Weaknesses
This hero doesn't have mobility like a dash skill, this hero only boost movement speed of allies while reducing the enemies movement speed. I suggest that you only use his ult to chase enemies along side your allies because this hero is not a good setter. Dont use his ult to charge straight to an ixia's ult or other enemy tanks that can set.
Item
The boots for reducing cc. I always build dominance ice for anti life steal and the second build is thunder belt to stack hybrid defense. These 2 are my core items. Clock of destiny in order to stay longer into fights. Guardian helmet for healing overtime and chastise pauldron for enemy marksman and survivability although you can change it to cursed helmet if you want more hp.
Build
Having extra defense right of the start is good since this hero is not a ranged type and he will always soak up the damage for your team. I use bargain hunter so i could build thunder belt more faster and gain more stacks right of the bat. Concussive blast for extra damage.
Battle Spell
There are two spells that you can use depending on your teammates: Revitalize: I suggest this spell if your not solo and make them build the item oracle. This boost your allies chances of survivability. Vengeance: I suggest this spell if your solo or have an enemy such as karrie, claude, etc. This is more useful if your team doesn't have coordination or the enemy can shred tanks
THUNDER STACKING
You can use his first skill to gain movement speed and basic attack your enemy to gain thunder stack and chase enemies. I do this everytime but if you are solo, your allies tend to charge with you thinking you will initiate and clash so do remember that solo players and the enemy can also use their mobility to gain distance so always remember that too.
AOE of doom
Ah yes, the most annoying skill for this hero his second skill always activate this skill when charging to enemy heroes in order to stack the reduced movement speed, attack speed and damage of this skill. I can guarantee you that you can melt tank heroes and even deal damage to enemies if you can last longer.
Death Charge
Now for the ult, most people use the ult in the most obvious ways. Remember the enemies can use it for their advantage to. The moment you charge to the enemies their tank might use that opportunity to set and stun your teammates giving them chance to retaliate and you ended up losing. Just use his ult for chasing, locking down heroes or if the enemy tank is not near.
