It’s time for another fighter to come to the Land of Dawn, it’s time for
another strong yet quite tanky hero to take charge of the fight, and as
always Moonton always delivers when it comes to new characters for the
game and this one is a lore-rich character too. So let’s not keep this
character in bay and discuss about Leomord, the Hell Knight!

Leomord Basic Description and Overview
Leomord
is a fighter and specializes with pushing potential and bursting down
enemy heroes meaning he can be a force to be reckoned with in lane and
can push alone and fast since his abilities can kill off a lot of
enemies, minions and champions alike. One of the spiciest things, this
hero have is that he has no mana so you can just use your abilities
without worrying that you will not have mana, energy or any other
secondary resource that your skills require you too. In short, he can
spam if he has the proper cooldown reduction items and purpose to spam.
So beware of this hero when he becomes fed because it could get
dangerous once he gets going.Leomord has these affinities for his overview. His durability is high and way above average which is very understandable for a fighter like him which can be proven with his one of his abilities that has a shield. Also, he can be durable since he can escape with mobility and his ultimate just does that as well. His offensive capabilities can deal quite a punch after all, his skills deal a lot of damage and going all-in against him is a bad idea unless you are in par or a lot more fed than him. Use caution whenever facing Leomord. His ability effects are not so stellar since he relies on his offensive matters.
However, his abilities are something to be noticed since it can deal lots of damage which can be said that his abilities matter on the offensive area rather than the effects like crowd control. Finally, his rated difficulty is not that hard and is rated on average since he is not a hard hero to learn and can be strong in the proper hands too.
Story
He has a story to back up his awesomeness too. He is a well-renowned warrior before the Fortress of Despair have been converted into the undead bastion as it is today. The Kingdom was once a beautiful and rich kingdom and he has the oath to protect the King and Queen of the Kingdom which turned out to be Vexana. All the evils in the world, Leomord would fight for his kingdom, however, the one that made it evil and undead was the one he swore to protect, because he could not escape this fate, he took his life rather than fighting his liege. With the Fortress of Despair almost taken over by Tigreal and the Expeditionary Forces of Light, Vexana remembered Leomord, his loyal retainer.Leomord’s resolve is hard to control and he cannot be manipulated by Vexana but without a choice, she awoke him on his slumber and came to remember Leomord’s oath to protect the kingdom and she told him that the undead were once the people he tried to cherish. Seeing sense in her words, Leomord once again mustered his courage and together with his horse, Barbiel rode to the battlefield to fight off Tigreal.
Leomord wielded the Oath Keeper his famed sword. He demolished one after the another until Tigreal himself challenged Leomord. Albeit, no declared winner was said, Tigreal realized Leomord’s despair and grief while challenging him. It was said that people know their enemies whenever they cross blades, this may be true for Tigreal on Leomord. And that was the day he knew he met a great opponent in the embodiment of Leomord, the Hell Knight.
Skills
Before we wrap this up, we would like to
add some information about his abilities, just like Lapu-Lapu he has
two states and these two have a combined 5 skills altogether, his
unmounted form gave him 3 abilities and the ultimate transforms him into
a mounted form which has 2 more skills that is almost equivalent to his
unmounted skills however much stronger and harder. He can also deal
damage while moving in his mounted form, which makes him mobile enough
to trade damage with opponents. This might spark interest for those who
love to have more than 3 abilities. So if you like what you are reading,
