Kane

Description

Kane the Usurper is an orphaned, mixed-breed warrior raised by Maliken to despise all forms of royalty and authority. His utopia is a Newerth bereft of crowns, with only the strongest and most savage allowed to hold dominion over others. He is incredibly cocky, but he can back it up, so maybe he's just confident...

A front line team fighter, Kane excels at leading the charge and locking down the enemy's carry while bolstering his team's strength.
