Tips and Tricks
Axe is excellent at this, so be sure to use Battle Hunger to pursue escaping heroes.
Due to the fact that Berserker Call is your primary presence with a lockdown and respectable damage when Counter Helix gets activated in the late game, you should try to Berserker Call people as many times as you can during a fight. A particularly effective late game Axe approach is to enter and exit a combat.
Axe’s Ability
BERSERKER’S CALL
Axe obtains additional armor while taunting adjacent enemy units, compelling them to charge at him quickly.
BATTLE HUNGER
Once an opponent unit is enraged, it will continue to take damage until it either eliminates another enemy unit or the duration is over. Axe’s armor increases the damage by a certain amount. As long as the adversary is turned away from Axe, they are likewise slowed.
COUNTER HELIX
Axe will launch a helix counterattack after a predetermined amount of attacks that will deal all adjacent foes pure damage.
CULLING BLADE
Axe attacks when it detects a weakness, causing just damage. Culling Blade resets its cooldown after killing an enemy hero, Axe gains permanent bonus armor, and all adjacent allied units gain permanent bonus movement speed.
