  Warmonger

  Buff

  Malice Energy grants Argus an initial Crit Chance of 30%. Argus's Crits are converted into Demonic Slash, which ignores 30% of the target's <1060>, deals 90 (+25% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage, and recovers 140 HP.
  
  Demonic Slash cannot Crit, but can still trigger Crit-related effects.

  Demonic Grip

  Mobility · Debuff

  CD: 12

  First Cast: Argus stretches out a demonic hand in the target direction, dealing 125 (+60% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage to the first enemy hero or creep hit, stunning them for 0.7s. Both Argus and the target are pulled toward each other, then the target is slowed by 40% for 2s.
  If no enemy is hit, Argus pulls himself toward the hand's destination instead.
  
  Use Again: Argus dashes and performs a wide slash, dealing 175 (+100% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage.

  Meteoric Sword

  CC · Damage

  CD: 8

  After a short charge, Argus thrusts his Meteoric Sword in the target direction, dealing 120 (+100% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage. If this hits an enemy hero, Argus briefly stuns them and gains 30% Attack Speed for 3s. Meteoric Sword's damage also gains a 40% boost to Crit Chance and Crit Damage.
  
  Meteoric Sword counts as a Basic Attack and can trigger Attack Effects. Attack Speed shortens the charge time.

• 

  Eternal Evil

  Death Immunity · Buff

  CD: 45

  Argus removes all control effects, gains Death Immunity for 4s, and deals 300 (+180% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage to nearby enemies. This damage scales with Argus's lost HP, dealing up to 50% extra damage when his HP falls below 30%.
  When Death Immunity ends, Argus recovers HP equal to all damage dealt to enemy heroes during its duration.
  
  Passive: If Argus takes fatal damage while Eternal Evil is not on cooldown, he automatically enters Death Immunity.

Hero Relations

Synergizes With

Argus works well with utility Supports like Angela and Rafaela who can provide extra Movement Speed and CC to allow Argus to stick to his targets and dish out maximum damage.

Strong Against

Argus counters heroes with poor mobility who cannot escape his attacks once he closes in, such as Gord and Aurora.

Weak Against

Argus is countered by Tanks with high Physical Defense, like Gatotkaca and Tigreal, because a lot of his damage comes from Basic Attacks.
