Balphagore

Description

Balphagore's gluttonous love of corpses draws him to wherever the Hellbourne's atrocities are at their worst. Armed with an array of dark powers, this daemon is not to be trifled with when hungry -- and Balphagore is always hungry.

Balphagore is a flexible, tanky hero able to push and teamfight with his summons and area-of-effect abilities. Hell on Newerth allows him to react to spell-heavy opposition by turning their mana against them with cataclysmic results.
