Helcurt

Helcurt, the Shadowbringer, is an assassin who plays in the Jungle.

Also known as Shadowbringer

Lore

The nightmare of the Abyss who's willing to betray anyone in order to survive. Born into the Styx Clan of the Abyss, Helcurt bore the stigma of his clan's betrayal against the Sovereign of the Abyss. Yet he joined the Tribunal, executing traitors for the very same Sovereign—even his own kin. The Styx Clan had betrayed their master, but in order to survive, Helcurt would even betray his own people. And when the clans of the Abyss rose against the Sovereign, it was Helcurt who struck the fatal blow. Indeed, he was born in darkness and walked among darkness. A traitor by birth, however, even a traitor has the right to live. He will survive, and no one will stop him.

Counter / cooperate relationship

Matchups

Counters

Helcurt can swiftly approach enemies with his mobility and quickly take down heroes like Layla, Chang'e, and Vale with his burst damage.

Countered by

Helcurt should avoid tank heroes that he can't burst down, such as Fredrinn, Belerick, and Gatotkaca. Once Helcurt is caught by their CC, they can make short work of him with their teammates.

Compatibility

Helcurt's Ultimate is a great tool to obscure the enemy's vision and makes it easier for him and his team to engage. Additionally, heroes with CC like Tigreal, Esmeralda, and Terizla work great with Helcurt to secure kills.
