Dota 2/Rizzrak the Timbersaw
"Trees? Why did it have to be trees?"
Rizzrak the Timbersaw, known as Goblin Shredder in DotA, is a melee strength hero who is usually played as a ganker. His short ability cooldowns and useful spells give him good power, mobility and durability. His Whirling Death is a good AoE damage spell that can also be used to weaken enemies, being able to interact with trees to cut through armor and magic resistance. His Timber Chain gives him incredible mobility with the help of trees, also letting him do pure damage. Timbersaw is also able to withstand long battles with Reactive Armor, giving a new meaning to the phrase "What does not kill you makes you stronger". His Chakram is a relatively spammable ultimate that can rapidly chip away enemy health and slow them drastically, though it renders him unable to attack using any other way. With multiple sources of pure damage and great survivability, Timbersaw is a hero to watch out for.
