Professor Putricide

The Icecrown Scientist

"Good news, everyone! I've perfected the plague!"


Professor Putricide is a mutliclass hero that shapes his playstyle with his lvl 1 talent choice that upgrades his Mysterious Potion, allowing him to be either a good damage dealer, good support or a decent off-support. Corrupting Tentacles and Tentacle Embrace are both good abilities to increase your damage output or supporting potential. Finally, he can spread potion madness with Potent Mutation or provide an engagement when he's about to Unleash Festergut.
