What they do
Axe is the simplest statement of what an offlaner does: run into the middle of the enemy team and make every one of them attack him. Everything about him rewards being surrounded, which is exactly the situation most heroes spend the game avoiding. Cheap to build, forgiving to learn, and still terrifying at high level.
Signature ability
Berserker's Call
Taunts nearby enemies into attacking him and gives him bonus armour while they do. Blink in, call, and the fight starts on his terms.
