Barbarian

Barbarian is a Legendary Horde Tank hero with Control and Debuff capabilities. He excels at absorbing punishment on the front line while applying a stacking damage-amplification debuff (Showerdown) that causes enemies to explode when the stack count resets, making him a force-multiplier for the entire Horde team.
