Khaleed, the Desert Scimitar, is a fighter who plays in the Roam.
Also known as Desert Scimitar
Lore
A sand-walking intrepid Clan leader. Moskov and Khaleed fought together with the Thornwolf tribe, but Khaleed became more popular than Moskov and became the leader. Subsequently, the disagreement between the two led to the annihilation of Moskov's army. Believing that Moskov was dead, Khaleed continued to lead his army to fight, and repelled Khufra in a decisive battle. At the same time, Moskov's figure slowly appeared in the darkness.

Khaleed is countered by heroes who have the ability to knock him back or airborne to interrupt his 2nd Skill, such as X.Borg and Chou.

Official combos
In the laning phase, move around to fill up Khaleed's Desert Power first, then hit the opponent with the enhanced Basic Attack to slow them and follow up with 3 hits from his 1st Skill. This should fill up his Desert Power again, allowing for another enhanced Basic Attack.
In teamfights, use Khaleed's Ultimate to initiate, then hit a target with his enhanced Basic Attack and continue the attack with his 1st Skill. Once Desert Power is full again, use another Basic Attack. Then use Khaleed's 2nd Skill to recover HP and reduce incoming damage.
