Hecarim: The Shadow of War
Hecarim is also known as the Spirit of the Dread. According to the lore, he was a knight destroyed by the Ruination's energy. He is a fusion between man and beast, spreading rampage in the lands of Runterra. He dominates the jungle lane with impressive stats. At the base level, he has 600 health and 380 mana. In addition, he has +8 health and +15 mana regeneration every 5 seconds. Hecarim is a must-have for the jungle role. Well, players can buy Wild Cores to purchase the hero and its skins.
Abilities of Hecarim
Hecarim's abilities are more focused on attack damage and movement speed. These help the players to clear the jungle quickly and help their teammates when required. The abilities of Hecarim are as follows.
- Warpath (Passive): His passive ability grants him Attack Damage proportional to Movement Speed. He can easily engage and damage opponents with this ability.
- Rampage (Ability 1): This ability allows Heracim to charge his weapon and increase his movement speed. It also increases the damage area. Players can tap the skill again to deal damage. The most effective way of using this ability is to wait till the weapon is fully charged and then attack. A fully charged weapon attack gives bonus movement speed to the champion.
- Spirit of Dread (Ability 2): Spirit of Dread makes him a tank in the battle. It grants him Magic Resist, and Armor and heals the champion. Players can use other abilities when Spirit of Dread is active. This ability can help in team fights.
- Devastating Charge (Ability 3): As the name suggests, this ability increases the movement speed. This speed increases over time. After the dash, Heracim attacks the enemies dealing damage and knocking them back. The best way to use this ability is to target an enemy and isolate them from behind. This helps to team kill enemies quickly.
- Onslaught of Shadows (Ultimate): The ultimate is similar to the Devastating Charge. Using this ability summons spectral riders. Heracim charges the enemies and knocks them back. It deals damage and inhibits fear in them. Players can get behind the enemies and knock them toward their teammates. This allows them to easily take down the enemy.
Heracim is one of the best ganking junglers in the game. Players can start with a Devastating Charge and get behind the opponents. After this use the ultimate ability Onslaught of Shadows to engage the enemy. His first ability, Rampage, deals a lot of AoE damage to the enemies.
