"At Last, the whole of Azeroth will break...and all will burn beneath the shadow of my wings..."
Once one of the Five Dragon Aspects, Neltharion, the leader of the Black Dragonflight, was driven mad by the whispers of the Old Gods, forcing him to turn on his fellow Dragon aspects during the war of the ancients. Thought to be dead by many after his defeat in the second war, Deathwing emerged from the recesses of Azeroth and laid waste to the world in an event only known as "The Shattering".
Now, the Aspect of Death has found his way into the Nexus, and he'll stop at nothing to bring the end to every realm in his wake.
STATS:
Deathwing is a massive and imposing Warrior who excels at area control, both around his enemies and his allies. Deathwing stands as the largest base-size hero in the game, being on par if not a little larger than that of Alexstrazsa's Dragon form. This hero is designed to specialize in grouping enemies together and peeling aggressive heroes off of his teammates, on top of just being an overall imposing presence on the battlefield.
Damage: 7/10
Utility: 6/10
Survivability: 9/10
Complexity: 5/10
Strengths:
+Massive Health Pool
+Natural immunity to slows and push effects
+Above average damage for a Warrior
+Excellent wave-clear
+Some of the best Peel abilities in the game
+Global Flight
Weaknesses:
-Massive size is weak to all forms of damage
-Escape is difficult against a majority of heroes
-heavily susceptible to stuns
-Very little Self-Sustain outside of specific talents
Synergizes Well With:
LT. MORALES, DECKARD, KAEL'THAS, KEL'THUZAD (Deathwing's ability to group enemies together allows for heroes who excel at AoE damage to truly shine, namely the likes of Kael'Thas, Kel'Thuzad, Jaina and Azmodan. He also greatly benefits from healers who can provide consistent healing as his massive size means he's going to be taking damage a majority of the time.)
Excels against:
KERRIGAN, MAIEV, VARIAN, GARROSH (Deathwing excels against melee heroes that lack the overall burst damage to take him down quickly, giving him ample time to wither them down with abilities and basic attacks. He also excels against overly-aggressive dive heroes who move out of position in order to try and confirm kills)
Struggles Against:
TRACER, THRALL, JUNKRAT, HANZO (Deathwing's biggest weakness is the fact that he's a very big target, meaning that it's incredibly easy to be hit by stray damage. On top of that, heroes that can kite his abilities and focus him down with sustained damage are a major problem unless accompanied by a healer)
HEALTH: 2800 (+4% per level)
HEALTH REGENERATION: 6.32 (+4% per level)
MANA: 500 (+4% per level)
MANA REGENERATION: 6.11 mana per second
