This is a really strong overall pick, especially if you're going to be putting Baelog in a solo lane and split pushing. Pain Don't Hurt - Baleog's Basic Attacks and splash damage heal for 20% of the damage dealt.
The lost vikings how to#
Make sure you know how to best take advantage of mercenary support before picking this talent. Not terribly exciting, but a good choice on The Lost Vikings because of how easy it is to get stacks and because they're so good at taking down mercenary camps already. USe 40 stacks to bribe target mercenary, instantly defeating them. Viking Bribery - Kill enemy minions to gain stacks of Viking Bribery. Explosive Attacks allows your Baelog to do some serious damage, and is especially good on large maps where he can push without as much opposition. It's also a great choice if you're planning to split your vikings and leech as many lanes as possible, since it saves you from having to pay too much attention to Erik.Įxplosive Attacks - Increases Baelog's splash damage against non-heroic enemies to 100%.Ī better choice than the others if you feel like you're going to need to carry your team or worry about their pushing potential. This talent is a great choice for organized teams and on maps with important objectives like Dragon Shire or Sky Temple. The stealth persists for 3 seconds after moving. Spy Games - After standing still for 3 seconds, Erik gains stealth and his sight radius is increased by 75%. This doesn't do anything to protect your other vikings and there are much better choices. What is usually a safe choice on warriors is pretty much a waste of a talent on The Lost Vikings. Olaf the Stout - Every 8 seconds Olaf can block a basic attack, reducing its damage by 75%. Go Go Go! (Z) - The Vikings gain 30% increased move speed for 4 seconds. Their mount ability is a little different as well: Viking Hoard - Gathering a Regeneration Globe with a Viking permanently increases all of their Health Regeneration by. The Lost Vikings only have one base ability, Viking Hoard - the rest are gained through talents. A stiff breeze will knock him over, so make sure to keep and eye on him in fights or pick up one of the talents that will help him survive. The fastest of The Lost Vikings, Eric also has the highest sustained damage and the longest range, making him great for scouting, chasing down weak heroes, and safely leeching lanes. His basic attack does 50% AoE damage, and can be upgraded, so make sure to take advantage of his teamfight and pushing power. With a short range splash attack and good health, damage, and speed, Baelog is by far the best solo laner among The Lost Vikings, and has several upgrades to make him better at split pushing or taking mercenary camps. He regens quickly and can be upgraded to stun, do area damage, and be even beefier. When you right click an enemy hero with Olaf, he will charge and slam them with his shield, slowing momentarily. The beefiest of The Lost Vikings, Olaf is great for getting in enemies' faces, bodyblocking, and soaking up damage. Here's a quick rundown of each viking: Olaf the Stout Tier Two: Pain Don't Hurt/It's a SabotageĮven though all of the Viking's abilities, once learned, are the same across all three heroes, each of the vikings plays differently and has different strengths and weakness.Olaf's shield can also be used as a stepping stone for Erik to enable him to reach higher ground, which would not be possible without the shield.(See "Talents and Skills" section below for more detailed explanations)Ĭompetitive Map Pressure/Split Push Build

Olaf can block enemies and their projectiles with his shield, and use his shield as a hang glider. The bow can also be used to hit switches from a distance. Each of the Vikings has a unique set of abilities:Įrik can run faster than the other two, can jump, and can bash through some walls (and enemies) with his helmet.īaleog can kill enemies with his sword, or from a distance with his bow (and a "life-time supply of arrows"). After escaping through the airlock of the spaceship, they must traverse various bizarre locations to find their way home.Īll three Vikings (Erik, Baleog and Olaf) have three health points which they can lose by getting hurt by enemies or by falling from great heights, and the ability to carry and use items, mainly keys, bombs, and food (which restore health points).

In the game, the three Vikings get kidnapped by Tomator, emperor of the alien Croutonian empire, for an inter-galactic zoo and become lost in various periods of time.
