Julian

Julian, the Scarlet Raven, is an assassin who plays in the Jungle.

Also known as Scarlet Raven

Lore

Julian was the son of Terizla, the leader of the Free Smiths' Guild. The guild was exterminated by the Church of Light on charges of heresy when Julian was at an early age. The poor child was then adopted by the Archbishop, trained and molded to be an elite member of the Ravens, a secret force that listened only to the Archbishop's orders. Later, on his mission to "purify" Xavier, he caught a glimpse of the secret buried in time.

After casting two different skills, Julian enhances his third skill. Casting the enhanced skill makes all his skills go on a 9-6s Cooldown (decreases with his level). After casting any skill, his Basic Attacks for the next 2s will deal 100 (+100% Total Physical Attack) (+100% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage and pull the target toward him (deals 85% damage to Creeps).

Counter / cooperate relationship

Matchups

Counters

Julian is a hero who can constantly grow his own advantage, so he is strong against heroes who are weak in the early game, like Cecilion and Aldous.

Countered by

Julian needs to hit enemy heroes with his skills to bring out his potential, so he is countered by heroes with good Mobility. Such as Joy and Harith.

Compatibility

Julian works best with powerful support heroes who can buff him, like Angela and Diggie.
