Wraith King is a melee Strength hero that is considered one of the simpler characters in the game, with only one active ability. However, he is still a very solid and fun hard carry, and one that is very difficult to kill. His Vampiric Aura and Reincarnation abilities gives Wraith King amazing survivability, and his Wraithfire Blast and Critical Strike lets him disable and rack up the damage. Wraith King might look like the easiest hero to play in the game, but he can also be one of the toughest. | |||
