2
Fortress He is good as an ally but otherwise i dont see why he would be a threat

Phinn Easy stacks and his hook (forced accord) is great for you. Most of the time
3
Alpha I havent had much of a porblem facing her
4
Ardan Watch out for his gauntlet and Vanguard he can get away quickly with that.
4
SAW He is slow naturally so he is easy gank material.

Skaarf Stun his ult while he is channeling it. Watch out for the goop.

Rona She can burst you down if you dont keep attacking her. So dont be scared and keep attacking her
6
Krul May the best krul win. I suggest an atlas pauldronto counter him.

6
Koshka Be careful of hit and runs.
6
Glaive Just watch out for his afterburn.
6
Kestrel If she builds crystal then the glimmershots can burst you down.

7

7
Reim Dont stand there and take the winter spires.

7
Celeste Her ult and stun is bad. The heliogenesis should be easy to dodge.

Skye Her mobility makes her a horrrible opponent for krul. Proc shiversteel on her and watch her ult.
8
Taka Hes slippery. So watch out for hit and runs as well.
9
Adagio His heals and damage boosts are disgusting along with the arcane fire which slows. Be cautious while fighting him.
9
Catherine Her stuns and silences are horrible be careful of those.

General Top

Krul is a character in Vainglory that is incredibly hard to master. His skills require timing and the right build to be effective. If played correctly he controls the jungle. However he is very weak early game. So be cautious during the first 10 minutes of the game. Or Until you build your breaking point and some defense. Do not engage early game unless you are 2 v 1 with your roam. When you get to mid-game you are built to gank. Your heroic perk Shadows Empower Me makes it so that you slow the enemy while boosting your own speed.

Abilities Top

Shadows Empower Me
This is a heroic perk that makes Krul great for ganking. After staying in a brush for 1.5 seconds. Krul gains plus 2 movement speed and slows the target he hits. It also helps for escaping.
Dead Man's Rush
This is the A skill For Krul This deals 160% of the weapon power damage that you deal. it also acts as a gap closer. It becomes very useful mid battle when you have your breaking point stacks up. Its also great for chasing people down. It also gives you a Health barrier, like a reflex block.
Spectral Smite
This is Krul's Most important skill. It keeps him alive in fights. It builds up to 8 stacks of weakness and gives you lifesteal. So always overdrive this ability first. Its active deals crystal damage and gives your health, It does more damage and heals you more the more stacks on the target there are.
From Hell's Heart
This is Kruls ult. It only hits heroes. It does damage and stuns them for up to 3 seconds. 1 for point-blank range, 2 for max distance and 3 when you boomerang it back towards you. You can use this to initiate fights or kill off the enemy hero with low health.

Buying items Top

When you first start the game, buy Swift Shooter and 2 halcyon potions a lot of people dont buy these potions but as Krul you are very vulnerable to jungle invades from early game heroes: such as koshka and others, if you get low on health or mana then pop a potion. It never hurts to have some potions.
After your 1st rotation of the jungle camps. You should have about 1000 gold. Buy a Weapon Blade, Sprint Boots and defense ( Light Shield against crystal builds and Light Armor for weapon power builds.) however later into the game, you will buy both, just so you can tank, drag fights out and destroy your opponents with your breaking point stacks.
After you get about 1500 gold then go to the jungle shop again and upgrade to a Blazing Salvo buy an Oakheart and Light Armor. If you have the gold then buy a Heavy Steel as well.
By now you should have the potential to gank the enemy laner if they are across the circle in the middle.
Afterwards, buy your Breaking Point ASAP, upgrade to Travel Boots, Dragonheart, Kinetic Shield and Coat of Plates.
if you get to late game at about 20 minutes then max out everything. Once you do that then you are an unstoppable force. You get so much health and lifesteal that its sorta impossible to die. THEN F*** THOSE B****S UP!!!

Ganking Top

Wait for the laner to go past the circle in the middle, build up your passive and rush out and DMR him/ her once you have built full stacks or you think that it can kill them then pop the spectral smite.
This is the most effective way to gank the laner
If you know the jungler is alone, then go invade their jungle and if you meet them they might run from you, if they do then DMR to get close to them and if you have shiversteel then pop it to slow them.

Final words Top

So hopefully this build helped you out for playing Krul. I will update this guide whenever i feel like there is the need to. So anyways win that battle for the halcyon fold and bring glory to your name. PEACE MOTHERTRUCKAZ.
