General Strategy

One after another, Axe cuts down his foes. Marching ahead of his team, he locks his enemies in battle then counters their blows with a deadly spin of his weapon. Slamming his culling blade through a weakened enemy, he is always charging onward.

Modifiers
Buff Berserkers Call Armor: Undispellable.
Debuff Berserkers Call: Undispellable.
Mogul Khan`s warcry taunts opponents into engaging in an unconquerable battle with the Axe.

Notes:

  • If Axe turns invisible during the taunt, affected enemies start attacking the next closest enemy to them.
    • If no enemies are nearby, affected units stand still. While standing still, they can be given one order which they then execute. This order cannot be manually canceled.
    • This can be any order, including casting of an ability or item, or a move or attack order.
    • After that order, the unit cannot do anything and stands still until the taunt expires. Be that as it may, if Axe turns visible again, affected units start attacking him again.
  • The taunt has the same priority as Winter`s Curse, but lower priority than Duel.
    • Same priority means that affected units attack the first taunted unit.
  • When Axe dies, the taunt ends immediately.

Partially blocked by Linken`s Sphere. Blocked when primary target. Not blocked when applied by Culling Blade.
Modifiers
Buff Battle Hunger Self: Undispellable.
Debuff Battle Hunger: Dispellable with any dispel.
Ordinary heroes cannot withstand Mogul Khan`s rage for battle, such that it injures them until it is satisfied.

Notes:

  • Casting Battle Hunger multiple times on the same target does not stack, but refreshes the duration instead.
  • Using Death Pact, Devour, Demonic Conversion, or Hand of Midas also removes the debuff.
    • Be that as it may, Lich`s Sacrifice does not.
  • Killing illusions does not remove the debuff.
  • The affected unit itself has to make the kill to remove the debuff. Summons or illusions owned by the same player do not remove it when they make a kill.
  • Deals damage based on the level upon cast of the ability. Leveling up Battle Hunger does not update the damage of already placed debuffs.
    • Be that as it may, choosing the damage upgrading talent immediately upgrades all of Axe`s currently active Battle Hunger debuffs.
  • Deals damage in 1 second intervals starting 1 second after cast, resulting in 10 instances.
  • Can deal up to 160/240/320/400 (Talent 1160/1240/1320/1400) damage (before reductions) when lasting its full duration.
  • When upgraded, directly reduces any damage the debuffed target deals. This includes damage from spells.

Notes:

  • Can only proc when an enemy unit lands an attack on Axe, regardless of distance. This means it cannot proc on missed attacks.
  • Secondary attacks from Moon Glaive, Death Ward, Split Shot and Flak Cannon cannot trigger Counter Helix.
  • Despite the visual effects, the damage is applied instantly within the radius.
  • Counter Helix does not use a regular cooldown. It is neither displayed on the ability icon when proccing, nor is it affected by cooldown manipulating effects.

Modifiers
Buff Culling Blade Boost: Dispellable with any dispel.
Mogul Khan is the embodiment of battle and fury, launching into a gruesome fatality against those who dare engage the Axe in combat.

Notes:

  • When the target`s health is above the threshold, it only applies its regular damage (magical) and plays a different sound.
    • Even when the target dies to the regular damage (possible with damage amplifications), the other effects of Culling Blade are not applied.
  • When the target`s health is below the threshold, it does the following:
    • It deals damage to the target equal to the health threshold value, in the form of pure damage (flagged as HP Removal).
    • It applies the speed bonus to Axe and nearby allies.
    • If the target was a hero, clone or illusion, its cooldown gets reset.
    • When having Aghanim`s Scepter, Battle Hunger is applied to all enemy heroes (including illusions and clones) and creep-heroes within range.
  • The target`s health is checked upon reaching the cast point, so if it gained health during that time so it exceeds the health threshold, the cull fails.
  • Culling Blade ignores Shallow Grave and kills the target through it if low enough.

Axe`s fighting style demands that he gets up close and very personal, as he can taunt enemies into attacking him with Berserker`s Call, preventing them from engaging his teammates. Once he has the enemy`s attention, he can counter those who strike him with a sweeping Counter Helix that slashes all enemies at melee range with pure damage. He also has a slow and damage-over-time nuke in Battle Hunger, which can harass the enemy or force them to join in battle, while also slowing their movement speed and boosting his own. At long last, he has the ability to unconditionally remove weakened enemies from the battlefield if they are under a certain threshold with Culling Blade, while simultaneously boosting his allies` speed.

Recommended Roles
Initiator Durable Disabler Jungler

As a grunt in the Army of Red Mist, Mogul Khan set his sights on the rank of Red Mist General. In battle after battle he proved his worth through gory deed. His rise through the ranks was helped by the fact that he never hesitated to decapitate a superior. Through the seven year Campaign of the Thousand Tarns, he distinguished himself in glorious carnage, his star of fame shining ever brighter, while the number of comrades in arms steadily dwindled. On the night of ultimate victory, Axe declared himself the new Red Mist General, and took on the ultimate title of `Axe.` But his troops now numbered zero. Of course, many had died in battle, but a significant number had also fallen to Axe`s blade. Needless to say, most soldiers now shun his leadership. But this matters not a whit to Axe, who knows that a one-man army is by far the best.
