Abaddon,Lord of Avernus

 

Introduction

 

A former paladin of great renown, Abaddon fell into darkness during the invasion of the Burning Legion, becoming possessed by many demons, corrupting both his soul and his powers. Now a Death Knight set high in the Lich King's hierarchy of generals, he rides into battle against impossible odds, never stopping until he reaches the World Tree itself. Whether enhancing his own fortitude with a shield of dark energy, or using his life force to aid in combat, the Lord of Avernus leads the armies of the Scourge ever onward, forever locked in combat with the forces of good, and his enemies who were once his greatest comrades.

Skill Introduction & Explanation

 

ris26q.gif

Death Coil(D)

 

A coil of death that can damage an enemy unit or heal a friendly unit at the cost of his own life.

 

Level 1 - Heals or Damages for 100 HP. Deals 50 HP to himself

Level 2 - Heals or Damages for 150 HP. Deals 75 HP to himself

Level 3 - Heals or Damages for 200 HP. Deals 100 HP to himself

Level 4 - Heals or Damages for 250 HP. Deals 125 HP to himself

 

CoolDown: 6 seconds  MP cost:75 at all levels

 

EXPLANATION:this can be used as mini heal for your allies!no big deal :D

Damage to done to your foes is REDUCED by 20% as this skill is considered magic!DotA heroes have a passive 20% magic reduction ability !

Damage done to YOU is PURE!

This skill can be used to finish of a runner who may try to escape death...also you can finish yourself by suiciding when you have 125 hp or less and your enemies will never receive exp-gold from you !

Aphotic Shield(T)

 

Summons dark energies around an ally unit, creating a shield that absorbs a set amount of damage before expiring. When the shield is destroyed it will deal damage equal to the amount it absorbed to an area around it. Removes certain types of negative buffs on cast. Lasts 15 seconds.

 

Level 1 - 125 damage/100 mana

Level 2 - 175 damage/100 mana

Level 3 - 225 damage/100 mana

Level 4 - 275 damage/100 mana

 

CoolDown:22 seconds

EXPLANATION: this is your main harassing skill early game which also is a pain in the neck for your foes!It protects you working as a shield which absorbs damage from your enemies and when it explodes it returns the same damage back to your foes (in 300 AoE i think,not quite sure)

Damage done to your enemies is MAGIC so consider their magic reduction

This skill can be used in many ways!

 

1)On You: Shielding you raises your survaibility and gives you the chance to last hit a creep and so that you can farm easier!

2)On Allied Creeps:when you are low on health and you havent reached 6 lvl in order to use your ulti.it delays your enemies pushing on your lane!actually LoA is strong lane controller so you shouldnt have problems but we just mention it

3)On Allied Heroes:it can be used to save an Ally who has low health and tries to fall back!

 

PLUS this skill NEGATES most of the DE-buffs on you!(slow,poison etc)

*can NOT be used when you have DooM or BloodRage

FrostMourne(Passive)

 

Abaddon strickens an enemy with Frostmourne's chilling power on each attack, causing all units who attack the slowed enemy to gain 10% increased movement speed, along with faster attack speed, for a limited time.

 

Level 1 - 10% increased attack speed, slows enemy by 5%.

Level 2 - 20% increased attack speed, slows enemy by 10%.

Level 3 - 30% increased attack speed, slows enemy by 15%.

Level 4 - 40% increased attack speed, slows enemy by 20%.

 

EXPLANATION:this passive can slow(MS) enemies on hit and increases your AS

 

20t2qte.gif

Borrowed Time(B)

 

When activated, most negative buffs will be removed and you will no longer take damage for the duration of the ability. If the ability is not in cooldown, it will passively activate when your hitpoints drop below 400.

 

Level 1 - Lasts 3 seconds.

Level 2 - Lasts 4 seconds.

Level 3 - Lasts 5 seconds.

 

CoolDown:1 minute(60 seconds)

NO Mana Cost

 

EXPLANATION:this is a GREAT ULTI which cost NO mana and with a very good cooldown capable of using it many times!

The best thing is that this skill can be used either manually either passively when you reach 400hp or less ^^

As long as this skill is active and you receive damage you get your HP replenished thats why you are considered as UNDEAD and BEST tank in game! :)

Borrowed Time removes most negative buffs like stuns, disables, slows and Doom as long it is activated.

 

*Consider taking a look at Best Allies/Worst Enemies section for more info

Almost every player who respects himself uses this build :) though you can change it anytime you want and make it as you wish. 

 

 

ITEM BUILD

 

sp85g9.gif

Speed  over Treads! Reason why BoTs is because you are pusher,tank etc and you need instant teleports around map!synergizes with your ulti LoL! use borrowed time when try to teleport will heal you and might take you to another spot on the map healed ready for battle!if you get stunned then you have used your ulti wrong :D :D :D

xbihl1.gif

vlads is a must for LS,MP regen,armor . an item needed for every(non-invis) melee hero in order to survive and kill

5dphfc.gif

HP bonus,HP regen + damage since you are STR hero and every STR add gives you damage :) very nice choice

2mg44ee.gif

For disabling purposes :-/ you can be a supporter hero too along with tanking

w7otu9.gif

for extra own + allied heal (Supporting)

2e2gl5t.gif

This item completes you as tank :D armor boost,Stats,AS,reduce of AS on enemies,synergization with Frostmourne,makes you first target (lol) and activates your ulti as you draw all the hits giving your teammates all the precious time they need in order to finish a battle ...thats why you are a very good tank

 

OPTIONAL-ALTERNATIVES

10e3ct5.gif

209je4p.gif

Best allies

 

Cleavers

11gheu0.gifvxl1qr.gif2nrznk8.gifvnzgd0.gif5wdsmp.gif

 

they are capable of cleaving your enemies whilst you draw their attacks

Healers

 

2ekhz52.gif2klt20.gif2pyooqr.gif

Some extra healing assistance never hurt anyone

 

Pushers

 

16a2muu.gif2zdxi6f.gif2953hpl.gif334kmrd.gif

 

Since you are a good pusher the cooperation with other pushers there will be no tower left in short time

 

 

Worst Enemies

 

High Instant Damage(Nukers)

 

ixs3g6.gif2pyooqr.jpg2625v7p.gif6z5xz5.gifx4nbwp.gif

 

There are many nukers but these guys'ulti can cleave your HP before your ulti can be passively activated so you need some caution before finishing them.they can deal more than 400 dmg borrowed time needs in order to be activated thats why they are special occasions

 

Cleavers

11gheu0.gifvxl1qr.gif2nrznk8.gifvnzgd0.gif5wdsmp.gif

 

your best friends are your worst nightmares too :D

 

 

EASY PREYS(Special)

 

YOUR ULTI ALONE IS CAPABLE OF RUINING THEIR ULTI :D

*Lucifer's Doom triggers Borrowed time so as you take damage borrowed time heals you

*Strygwyr's Rupture triggers Borrowed Time so as you take damage Borrowed Time heals you

*Pudge's channeling Ulti triggers Borrowed Time and you can still trigger Borrowed Time and get heal

*Rhasta' Mass Serpent Wards trigger Borrowed Time and you get healed as you get hit

*Voljin's Death Ward triggers Borrowed Time and you get healed as you get hit

*Sven's God's Strength deals huge damage so when you use Borrowed time You get healed as long as you get hit

Cleavers

11gheu0.gifvxl1qr.gif2nrznk8.gifvnzgd0.gifzk259u.gifsq4ls8.gif

Anyway Thank you a lot NobLe for this guide!

This hero is not a bad tanker, but i think that its way better as a killing machine with that atk speed and slow.

Indeed... His MS is also high, and I still can't understand why you said S&Y is bad...

 

I've seen Abaddon with Mask of Madness and MKB, he owned , it's really not that bad when you use Abaddon for DPS

 

Posted

of course abaddon can be great dps since he dies hard thats why i placed radiance and rapier on the list or satanic!

about SnY, frostmourne doesnt stack with it :) only for stats would you take it?

 

abaddon is usually played as tank,supporter or dps!all those roles can be played !

 

@NAB:about mask of madness, this item just makes you more vulnerable whilst frostmourne and(or) assault cuirass make you super fast to the maximum :-/  the option of mkb is good and i suppose he was DPS in that game

Wait wait, how can it not stack? Frostmourne is a buff placer but SnY is an orb. Buff placers and orbs DO stack with each other, 2 buff placers do not stuck and 2 orbs do not stack together...

Posted

i spent a pub trying to share the same opinion you have and we end up that SnY is just useless for the reasons of the other item builds ;) :D its a long story
