I think that this Hero would be an interesting and fun addition to the roster. He is a very underappreciated character in WoW that not many people remember. Fans of the old Scholomance dungeon will remember him quite fondly. With WoW Classic releasing, this would be a perfect classic character to add to the roster.

It is quite obvious that his main counters would be healers, or anyone that has a casted healing ability in general. Krastinov would also counter other Krastinovs because of this fact. It helps to always be attacking something to dish out damage and keep bleeds up. Clotting allows a lower risk for diving in to secure a kill. If by chance you find yourself unable to be doing something (As in returning to a lane from the base or travelling long distances without combat) quite a lot, you should take the Always Pumping talent so your next opener will be quite devastating.

Fighting this character can challenge healers to prove they really know what they are doing and put their skills to the test if he takes Open Heart Surgery. The second they see a massive drop in their ally's health, they should immediately heal their ally. If not well...that healer may have just fed Krastinov another delicious kill. His bloody rampages of death can easily be shutdown by any skilled healer who knows what they are doing.

The Doctor is In, Donate My Body To Science, Stat!, and Operating Assistant can make Krastinov a valuable ally in team fights. If you find yourself not too confident in your abilities in a team fight, take Donate My Body To Science so you can benefit your team even if you die.

If you are in a team fight against a Krastinov, depending on their build it can be quite tricky. If they do not have Donate My Body To Science, go ahead and focus them down as hard as you can. If they are using it. Focus down the people who would benefit the most from Krastinov's death

Undead Krastinov - His undead appearance which can be seen as a rare spawning enemy in the current version of the Scholomance dungeon in WoW.

Surgeon Krastinov - A skin for Krastinov that looks like an actual surgeon wearing surgeon scrubs and an operating mask.
