Barats – Counters
Weak against (counters)
Barats is countered by agile Marksmen who can deal high damage to Tanks, such as Karrie and Moskov, because Barats lacks mobility and his skills can be avoided, making these heroes very difficult to kill.
Strong against
Barats counters Tank heroes that rely on CC skills, such as Belerick and Lolita, since the extra Resilience provided by his Passive will greatly reduce the duration of their CC.
Barats – Skills
Big Guy
Detona gains a stack of Big Guy for 12s each time it or Barats damages an enemy with their skills (up to 10 stacks). Each stack of Big Guy increases Detona's size and grants 4 - 10 Shield (scales with the level of Detona's Welcome). At max stacks, Detona gains 20% extra Resilience, and its Basic Attacks are replaced with Trample, which deals (+140% Total Physical Attack) (+3.5% Max HP) Physical Damage to enemies in a circular area, slows them by 40% for 0.2s, and refreshes the duration of Big Guy with each hit.
So-Called Teamwork
CD: 7 Mana Cost: 25
Detona spits contaminated oil in the target direction, dealing 60 (+7% Max HP) Physical Damage to enemies in a fan-shaped area. Barats then ignites the oil with a firecracker, dealing 120 (+180% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies in the area (only 50% damage to Creeps).
The area of effect of So-Called Teamwork increases with the number of Big Guy stacks.
Missile "Expert"
CD: 11 Mana Cost: 70
Barats fires two missiles at the target location, dealing 100 (+75% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and slowing enemies by 40% for 1s. The missiles expel fumes from their exhausts upon landing, dealing 100 (+75% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies in a rectangular area and pushing them toward Barats.
Detona's Welcome
CD: 50 Mana Cost: 100
After a short delay, Detona charges in the target direction, dealing 120 (+70% Total Physical Attack) (+1.2% Max HP) Physical Damage to the first enemy hit, devouring and suppressing them for 1.2s, then spitting them out. If the spat‑out target hits an enemy hero or a wall, it triggers an explosion. The target and nearby enemies take an additional 180 (+105% Total Physical Attack) (+5% Max HP) Physical Damage and are stunned for 1s.
During the skill, Barats becomes immune to control effects. If the cast is canceled or the skill misses, 50% of the skill cooldown is refunded.
If Detona successfully devours an enemy, he immediately gains max stacks of Big Guy.
Combo
LANING COMBOS
In the laning phase, spam Barats' low Mana cost 1st Skill to build Big Guy stacks while slowing and poking the enemy. Use his 2nd Skill to push the enemy to him and hit them with Basic Attacks.
TEAMFIGHT COMBOS
In teamfights, use Barats' 1st Skill to maintain Big Guy stacks. Approach the enemy and use his 2nd Skill to push them close before using his Ultimate to minimize their chance of escape, then finish them off with Basic Attacks.
