DOTA Allstars: Mogul Khan - The Axe Guide
By MaxQ

You cant Escape.

If u get this hero and you know how to play him they wont be able to escape your fierce battle hunger. He is a Strength hero so you can acquire a lot of Health and Damage to. This hero is built to kill, and if there are more attacking him the best he performs on his duty, if they outnumber you you will kill them faster. I saw many players with this hero and some of them were to be afraid of, they handled the spells and items like no other and they caught me always every time.

I should say the primary spell that you will need is Counter Helix "Mogul Kahn counters some blows made to him by taking the attacking unit and swinging it around violently, dealing damage to all nearby enemy units.15% chance to counter throughout all levels" you will have to lvl this spell early to gain advantage against the enemy hordes. This is a passive spell. So as i said before the more they are the often you will cast this counter spell. Very useful.

With Battle Hunger (R) you can really piss off the enemy heroes "Afflicts a target with a terrible killing hunger. The target will take damage per second until it kills a unit." Which means 25 damage/second, for 25 seconds at lvl 4 for 135 mana and 25 seconds cooldown.. You can cast this on a fleeing hero and he will die eventually. Or you can just cast it when you attack the hero so it takes damage from you and the spell when hes focusing on you and not on the killing of the creeps.

Berserker's Call (E) "Mogul Kahn focuses all of his enemy's hatred on him, causing them to attack him at all costs. 275 AOE." This is very useful considering the more they attack you the faster you counter them with damage. If they try to run just cast this spell so they MUST stay and attack you at all costs. It lasts 3 seconds and you get 20 bonus armor - very useful, it cost 110 mana and has 15 second cooldown.

The last spell, your ultimate Culling Blade (C) "Purges the weak from Mogul Kahn's sight. Deals moderate damage, but will kill a target that is low on life." Deals 300 damage, but will kill unit if its health is below 625. This will cost you 160 mana to cast and has a 90 seconds cooldown.

The most important item for this hero is Vanguard it costs 2275 4hp regen / second +250 Hit points and 65% to block 35 damage, you will need at least two of these. And after that any other good item is welcome. There you have it another fine product, check back soon.

what item is more advisable to use to increase Mogul Khan's movement speed?

vanguard, S&Y, Vladimir's Offering
are my primary items for axe.
are these items okay for him? what are other items that can optimize Mogul Khan?

Im still new to dota. i just recently played it because my boyfriend is really good at this. he taught me sometimes but i want to learn by myself.

I really appreciate all to be said.

My item for axe are following:
Vanguard
Vanguard
HoT(Heart Of Torraque)
BoT(Boots of Travel)

Vladmir is good for axe cause of lifesteal, but Radiance, S&Y, Battle Fury are okay too.

Get BoT if your opponent are faster than you.
If you really have troublr killing heros, get Kalen's Dagger of Escape and Culling Blade him. Instant death ^-^
GG

In the later game, you can sell one vanguard for Blade Mail too.

I'm really a pro. with the Axe. Mostly I make 2 Vanguards + Power Treads at the beginning. When you play 5 vs 5 ( and that's what I mostly do ) get a Stout Shield at the beginning, and yes, play him with Berserker's Call + Counter Helix and go on side with a hero with AoE Dmg.-ing spells, you just go Berserker's Call ( when there are many creeps from the opposite side ) and you are countering good as hell.. don't worry for doing that, you don't suffer much dmg. 'cos of your Stout Shield. After finishing the Vanguards, go on Vladimir's Offering and Sange & Yasha, then just make a Heart.

P.S. Don't be afraid of using Berserker's Call at the beginning, the creeps won't do much dmg. on you with Stout Shiled, and if you got a teammate with spells that do AoE Dmg. tell him to go with you, and to use his/her spells while the targets are under the Berserker's Call effect.. it will really make them hurt.. and don't forget of you Counter Helix.. 175 bonus dmg. on the target and 175 dmg. on the surrounding creeps / heroes isn't low.. and yes, remember to use your ultimate while the target is below the HP needed to do an instant kill.. that's my guide for the Axe.. hope you'll like it, and remember, I am a PRO :b
