Balmond

Balmond, the Bloody Beast, is a versatile melee hero who balances damage output with survivability. Currently sitting as a B-tier viable option with a 45.3% win rate, Balmond excels as a Fighter. With Damage and Regen specialties, this hero brings a unique kit to any team composition. Balmond is an aggressive fighter with excellent wave clear and a devastating execute ultimate. His Cyclone Sweep deals AoE damage that can critically strike, making him a teamfight menace when built with crit items. His passive Bloodthirst provides strong sustain by healing him whenever he kills minions, creeps, or heroes—making him a lane bully who rarely needs to recall. Lethal Counter deals true damage based on the target's missing HP, allowing him to secure kills on low-health enemies. Simple to play but effective, Balmond excels in the EXP lane or as a jungler who can invade early and snowball through fights.
