Lemminkainen "Undying Champion"

Hero Review

Lemminkäinen: The Man, The Myth, The... Minor Damage Dealer?

"Meet Lemminkäinen, the ginger barbarian from Kalevala who promises fire and fury but delivers... well, mostly just a mild sunburn. We dive into why his 'Flaming Sword' feels more like a matchstick in today's meta and whether his resurrection capabilities can save him from the bench."
