Dr. Rooney, the head of the research team, promised him a new future. But what X.Borg didn't knew was that his hometown, his family, and everyone he knew had also perished in the mining accident.

Firaga Armor

Buff

Firaga Armor inherits 160% of X.Borg's and absorbs all incoming damage when it's active. When destroyed, X.Borg rolls in the direction of the Joystick (he is invincible during this process). The Armor's energy will gradually regenerate while X.Borg is in the Armorless State. At full energy, X.Borg re-equips the Armor and restores it to 30% HP. X.Borg's attacks cause enemies to enter the Overheated state. Enemies in the Overheated state will drop Firaga Supplies when they take damage from X.Borg. Picking up supplies restores 10% of the Armor's HP (or 10 Energy while in the Armorless State). X.Borg's skills deal True Damage to enemies in the Overheated state.

CD 4

Fire Missiles

AOE

X.Borg sprays fire, dealing 25 (+60% Total Physical Attack) (+40% Total Magic Power) Physical Damage 7 times over 2s to enemies in front of him (75% damage to minions). Armorless State: The attack area becomes narrower but longer, while the damage is reduced to 60%.

Skill 2
CD 9

Fire Stake

CC

X.Borg fires 5 Fire Stakes forward and recalls them after 1.7s. Each stake deals 50 (+20% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and pulls enemies and Firaga Supplies along its path back to him. Armorless State: X.Borg adjusts the Fire Stake launcher, making the stakes travel farther and closer together.

Ultimate
CD 30

Last Insanity

BurstMobility

X.Borg charges in the target direction while spinning and spraying fire (cannot pick up Firaga Supplies during this time), dealing 90 (+60% Extra Physical Attack) (+45% Total Magic Power) Physical Damage 12 times and slowing enemies hit by 25%. He stops upon touching an enemy hero and will slow them by an additional 40%. After 3s, his mecha suit detonates, dealing 300 (+ 15% target's ) True Damage. If his armor is destroyed, it will immediately explode, but damage drops to 50%. The detonation destroys his armor, removes all control effects, and collects all nearby Firaga Supplies. Cannot be used in Armorless State. Use Again: Immediately stop spraying fire and detonate early.

Counter / cooperate relationship

Matchups

Counters

X.Borg counters Fighters that lack mobility, such as Terizla and Aulus. His 1st Skill has a large range and can be cast while moving, making it easy for him to kite.

Countered by

X.Borg is countered by Fighters with burst damage like Martis and Dyrroth. They can quickly burst down X.Borg when he is Armorless.

Compatibility

X.Borg pairs well with heroes who excel in burst damage, such as Karina and Martis. X.Borg's AOE damage will leave enemies low enough for his teammate to finishing off.
