Description

The Four Horsemen intend to provide a unique and diverse playstyle allowing a multiclass playstyle with a unique twist. Instead of other multiclass heroes in where your role is selected at the beginning or as an ultimate, the Horsement allow you to change throughout the game (Albeit once you die), letting you change your role and playstyle to fit the needs of your team and not having to worry about making a bad choice because it can be changed later

The Horsemen

Each of the Horsemen bring a different role and play-style which must be accounted for when choosing what Horseman you will respawn as

Baron Rivendare

Being the ringleader of the group; Rivendare leads the charge and serves as the tank role within the Horsemen. He boasts the highest HP of all Horsemen and passively gains 10 armour allowing him to take more damage than that of all Horsemen

Ghostly Strike empowers your basic attack to heal yourself on a relatively short cooldown allowing you to sustain against a single target. More effective against tanks use this ability often to last longer in the fight

Spectral Swing is a conal sweep that benefits your team by reducing the damage the enemy team deals and works well against heavily clumped enemy formations

His tanking potential only increases with his Bone Armour ability. Increasing for a short duration his armour to 30 and gaining a pseudo imposing presence
