Character description
Pudge operates as a melee combatant, wielding his considerable strength as his primary asset. This formidable hero is typically deployed as a robust hardlaner or a semi-support. His prowess peaks during the mid-game phase, where his abilities truly shine.
Role description
Pudge's arsenal, featuring maneuvers such as Meat Hook and Dismember, renders him an invaluable asset during skirmishes. The passive Flesh Heap endows him with remarkable resilience, establishing him as a formidable initiator and frontliner. With Rot in his repertoire, Pudge becomes a terror on the battlefield, a dominance further amplified by the enhancements of Aghanim's Scepter. When equipped with Aghanim's Shard, Pudge gains the near-miraculous ability to extricate his comrades from the jaws of peril with the use of his Dismember skill.
Character lore
Once a mundane purveyor of meats, Pudge underwent a grotesque transformation. He developed an immunity to the ravages of decay and garnered a voracious appetite for the consumption of living tissue. Now, Pudge relishes the chaos of conflict, seizing any opportunity to devour the flesh of his adversaries.
