Mordo enters The Contest November 10th at 10AM PDT!

About Mordo:

An advanced student of the mystic arts and fellow pupil of The Ancient One, Mordo saw the potential in the fledgling apprentice Stephen Strange and took him under his wing when the one-time neurosurgeon first sought healing. Like Strange, Mordo came to Kamar-Taj lost and broken. The Ancient One helped channel Mordo’s anger and led him down the path to enlightenment. While Mordo sees a bit of himself in Strange, his reason for vetting him is much shrewder – in the fight against unknowable darkness, Kamar-Taj needs all the help it can muster.

Recommended Masteries

Enhanced & Extended Fury: Mordo relies on his Fury effects on his Heavy Attacks and Special 3 to do a lot of damage. Fury and attack enhancing masteries are a clear win for this Champion.

Recovery: His Special 3 has the chance to trigger Regeneration Buffs. Enhance it for maximum potential.

Parry & Stupefy: Players need to charge Heavy Attacks in order to get Fury stacks and Power. Stunning the opponent makes it an easier task.

Strengths
