Hellbourne Melee Agility Hero Playstyle Summary
-
Against a solo, Tremble should focus on killing creeps, using Terror Mounds to regenerate, harass, and control runes. This strategy is reliant on Tremble being able to use the Mounds effectively. If the Mounds are destroyed, or Wards of Revelation are purchased, Tremble will need to play much more conservatively until he can summon Shudder.
-
In a side lane, the damage output from Dark Swarm makes for a near surefire kill if coupled with a slow or a stun. Emphasis should be placed on approaching an enemy invisible and activating it, coupling the magic damage output from Dark Swarm with the slow and increased damage from Impalers.
-
After the laning phase, Tremble can either continue to farm, or he can use Shudder and Mounds to gank around the map.
-
Tremble lacks any scaling abilities, so he is extremely weak late in the game if he doesn’t obtain the necessary amount of farm to hang with opposing DPS heroes. Maxing out Dark Swarm and gaining enough HP to right-click and cripple a single target will be vital to Tremble’s team-fighting ability.
