So in this video, I'm going to try one of the heroes who received an adjustment from the latest patch... And this one's Alucard.

Alucard: *has a buff*

You forgot alu God Dracula 😎
@@Earnmoneyonline161 u forgot the real boss Cold
Hahahaha
Alucard gods Dracula,And Yuzuke,And Etc.
@@babyblue4033 how about Fredo?
He is, it's only a matter of time until people let go of the idea that Alucard's pick is a troll pick, just like Lesley Alucard needs time too.
This one I agree
Are you sure? Cause it was a revamp that brought her to the spotlight
@@marielcarey4288 If you read the comment carefully you will see that they were agreeing that Lesley was bought into the spotlight due to her revamp while before picking her would be seen as a troll pick just like alucard and the stereotype of "alufeed"
I believe alucard needs a buff for his other weaknesses, I feel like he doesn't really have enough survivability ( aside from his lifesteal ). He is too squishy and can be bursted down quite easily. He also lacks versatility or some form of utility for the team since he is mainly focused on damage and only his own damage. If they gave him a def buff with his ult then I think he would be quite solid.
I don't see him a troll pick now since his revamp
I always use him at ranked in MG and no one complaining getting picked by that hero in my several games
Im a Mythic 2k points and have been trying him out in jungling for a while. All I have to say is how impressive his performance is when it comes to survivability against ganks. His damage is very good too. Only downside is the lack of CC and the vulnerability when he is not on ult.
"Juggling" 💀
@@hatepickles1753 Ah shi 💀
@@officialshaki maybe adding terrified effect after casting ult of alucard might help? 🤔
@@Aouli134too op lol.
but maybe... what if ... any enemies that was hit by Alucard's passive(enhanced basic attack) 3 times will get terrified for 0.8secs . that's pretty good I'd say
@@MTAKIM-xy9jd i think ult making them terrified is good enough
I highly recommend to build Hunter Strike for his first item because of its penetration and CD and its passive too, it will help you a lot in the early game. Just sharing 😅 and proud Alu main here 💖
yeah.. proud to use the most useless hero
The hero isn't useless its just that tgere are far better heroes to use than him
@@shadowharsh8225 oi dont be harsh now
@@harlequinnmeyer7861 Reality is Harsh
Swap the hunter strike for war axe or bod since they grant him more additional dmg in tge late game
Its very good, he can now deal way more dmg and can still be very mobile. But lets be honest, they’ll never top the old days of 1v5 alucard xD
Flippin' 100% lifesteal on marked target + double basic attacks back then
In the good ol days i used to 1v5 with alu using the old vengeance, it was so OP (it worked how argus hp bar would work when 3rd skill is active)
I miss those times! Back when Alucard was popular, but then became forgotten
Who misses this old voice line- Nothing last forever we can change the future :-)
I miss the old animation too. In his first skill there used to be a star-like sign and a satisfying sound.
@@arpel1472 i hate the old one..... jump and passive feels slow and hopefully that voiceline is removed as its too cringe and out of place
ngl alot of the older vc's had more personality then what exists now, feels generic and one note
"demon shall bathe in blood, justice belong to the righteous"
Its not just the chain CCs that can counter him, its also the anti heal items like dominos ice, and like u said, his main way of sustaining is through lifesteal
Another reason why he's played like an assassin
I have been using a full damage build instead of the ol' sustain build and it really helps when the mindset of the enemies is to build anti-heal items to counter alucard
You do not realize how easily he dies to a semi mage gatot, if he gets taunted his main damage source is gone, but with full dmg build you could literally take an mm out in 2 moves
@@JoshieBoyz why would alu fight a semi mage early on tho? Plus alu can crush him in the late since he pretty much has pen items plus lifesteal to sustain for long periods of time
@@JoshieBoyz bruh who fights a gatot head on without proper planning?
He really needs this buff tbh. Alucard isn't that popular in Legend+. Although I wish that he had increased sustainability, this is good enough. That's pretty insane, imagine the procs for Endless battle and even Thunderbelt when you wanna build him semi tanky, I know the passives doesn't proc every time you press a skill, it'll still do a number on anyone.
the reason why he's sustain is so lessen because the skills only inheritance the 50% of lifesteal he has, so if he has 80% lifesteal he will only inherit 50% of that so its so lessen if it was higher it would probably be a big difference
@@centralml5746 that's still pretty good considering that 40-60% lifesteal that he gets form his ult means 20-30% spellvamp, a built-in bloodlust axe, but this means nothing if he can't deal enough damage, that's why he's built like an assassin, plus anti-lifesteal can ruin his sustainability further, this can be negated with haas claw tho
@@Kenobisan02 that's why he's figther/assassin cuz a figther build can make him sustain and assasin can make him deal more damage than his figther counterpart
@@Kenobisan02 i also personally don't and never build haas claws for him if you want to counter dominace, get oracle, its better than haas claws
and yes I main alucard I know him well, I use him as a mythic l player and so far I've been doing well withyta "non/troll hero"
This buff while it made him more ult dependant, it overall buffed his damage output
I think Alucard need increase his lifesteal a bit. His ultimate should also provide magic defense and physical defense as you said in that video earlier.
I think the lifesteal dosent need any buff bcs we still have items to plus in lifesteal... But then physical and magic defense is a good one to add
@@ahmdjohn.__ Alright then. The magic and physical defenses will be a good buff
He needs to be a drain type fighter rather than a burst assassin because he aint got no worth if he is behind or when the enemies already have enough items to fight back.
I dont think lifesteal is viable for him, once the enemy has dominance, his lifesteal mechanics is done ,take note that his ult only lasts for 6 now, add some cc onto him and he will never fully use that 6 secs duration to gain lifesteal that much
The buff is really good, I like using vengeance more than retri now, for survival
You know what’s a good buff that won’t make him meta so he doesn’t get banned everytime? Bring back his 2nd skill’s movement and the shield it added whenever he used it. That was so long ago but I think it would allow him to survive better. Also, he wouldn’t need antiheals since shields don’t give health when hit with lifesteal or spell vamp.
he has one of the strongest early game dmg once he gets to lvl 4 and now with the buffs, he can keep up against other meta heroes as well, only downside is that he is really vulnerable against cc skills and at late game he gets shutdown easily with just a tank and mm or just an mm with wind chant and inspire. but yeh hes a beast now
As an Alucard user, I must say that this buff is good. Though it's still hard to use him in Mythic...
Alucard literally a treasure boy. He has a good offensive power in terms of his skill sets which gives him a better chasing and fast execution playstyle, good mobility in terms of escaping and entering combat, best sustainability in terms of life steal ability on his Ult and unique passive, and a newbie friendly difficulty which most low ranked players can still handle him perfectly. He also flexible in terms of emblem or roles. You either can play him as a jungler or an offlaner; and you can use fighter emblem build for better offense and sustain or you can use assassin emblem for higher damage and better execution. Alucard truly need more attention onto higher ranked games or tournaments but if Moonton decide to give him more better adjustments, he would be a viable pick on both ranked games and tournaments
Alucard hasn't have buffs in a long time
Zilong too
Yeah, ever since October last year
@@KENKANEKI-ot6ok He isn't buff mostly bc he has always had a very high pick rate
@@hakanoodles6423 I know kids like him 😂
Its very rare to see alucard player in higher ranks since i dont see often alucard player in my higher rank tho
I miss when Fredo and Cold dominates meta heroes using their Alucard back then.
Alucard is ult dependent on teamfights even before the buff, Moonton just decided to capitalize on it and made him dish out more damage on such a small time, like a full-fledged assassin. You should backdoor the enemies and pick out the squishy mm or mage first. Overall, I'd say this is a good buff as an Alucard main.
10:21. Yeah 😊. I have teamed with this guy earlier, and he carried the whole team. (along side me 😉).
Thanks for the amazing gameplay, and advises Mr. Elgin 👍.
Yes, he's good. I've used him more than I can remember in high ranked matches
I swear just give alucard cc immune and defense buff in ult he's gonna be monster for that
You guess it right for prediction a new defense on ultimate
Aside from Alucard's buff, gotta appreciate too the buff on your video editing!
I have never used lifesteal item on alucard since he got revamped a long time ago. His Ult is his main source of lifesteal. You'll be surprised with the lifesteal when you marked a lot of your enemies with your ult. Not even anti-heal items can stop him when you marked a lot of them. Better have cd reduction and physical penetration on him. Heptasease, hunter strike and malefic roar is good if you want to target squishy back lines.
the "Hey Guys! What's Up!" intro will never get old
Back then when he can't really die in 2016 haha I hope he will be back to it's former glory
Dracula is coming back! YEAAAAAAAAAH
"Everything will come to an end"
The Alufeed Era has come to an end?
"alucard gets an buff"
Me and another high ranks main alucard users: *cries happily and proud user*
*HIGHER RANKS
shows Epic
It is a "high" rank, but it doesn't matter when the people there don't even bother to learn anything new
Epic is the start of the higher ranks
I've always been an au user since s4 he's the hero that makes me wanna play the game when i saw my classmate used him and said "he's the king of lifesteal". Since then i started trying out heroes and personally, i like heroes with hp regen for some lowhp outplay lol. Im just happy that the hero i like is getting a buff, can't wait to get his epic skin in the m4 event
From Alufeed of Moonton to Alu being fed by Moonton
Mlbb need to fix title because we need to show or title to enemy on loading screen
I personally think what was supposedly lacking in Alucard's kit is innate DMG. He's very item dependent as of now but it's also the fact that his playstyle isn't really idealized for a mid-game jungler. He lacks the killing speed of most other assassins and lacks the survivability of fighters. I think a DMG buff(where some of his skills should at least have Total Physical ATK) should be enough but we'll see from this update
He's a mix of both, and I can see why he lacks in both departments, A snowball dependant hero
Actually hes a monster in the early if we pit him against ling, haya pr others he has a higher base dmg and pursuit passive in which he is hard to escape
@@Kenobisan02
He's somewhat of a monster but he lacks like the stealth and the killing speed that other assassin junglers have due to his fighter role which is unfortunate.
His buff isn't bad, but I feel like he should've been buffed a different way
@@spider-man5544
Mind you though, while pursuit is a good chaser, it is also a bad tool in escape since the passive will allow the enemies to properly outplay your style due to your weakness in mobility(mobility can be used for chase but chase ≠ mobility) which means your would have a hard time relocating yourself such as escaping.
my buff suggestions for him: (edited)
once Alucard has used ground splitter, his defenses will increase by 40% for 3 seconds
pursuit's basic attack now does 1.5x
and it has a new effect where the enhanced basic attack heals him by 5% of his total hp
his ult's cd is decreased by 5 seconds on all lvls and it increases his pen slightly
Instead of reducing its better to increase his own defence
Or just make his ult state give him anti-cc but only for 4 seconds
@@rikoalfiez6291 well i guess, his current dmg and with my pursuit idea would alr be more than enough
@@spider-man5544 that would be op no one can stop him once he has drawn his sword
@@hwowownkyouma8702 I see what you did there
Alucard mains, we rise and reap anyone who stands in our way.
Hope has shine a bright light upon us, let us decimate everything that stands in our way!
If you look at the update notes, Skill 1 is already 9.5-7.5. They included both the change to it and the Ult in today's update.
This gameplay had a bug before. I tried aiming 1st skill during the ult state and it resets when the time runs out. The bug has been fixed and he's doing great now. But I'm going to miss his 8 second ult.
Now, the skill pattern I have is 3B2B1B3B2B.
A good way to buff alucard would be increase base DMG of skills but lower (total physical attack bonus) to increase his early game farming speed and maybe give him a one time immune to cc when ultimate is pressed but increase ult cd a bit
Just wish they brought back his old basic atk passive where he can deal aoe damage and get aoe lifesteal unlike now. And they reduced his physical atk growth and base hp making him squishy😂
As an Alucard Main this is a pretty good buff for playing in solo, the didn't made him way to strong But enough to be barely meta
Also i found a little bug in moskov with the basic attack that makes him stay still after every attack
The best time to pick alucard is when you have tank not support or assassin as roamer and theres not much cc on the other team
Or just tanky sidelaner or tanky jungler.
His ulti time cooldown was really a big nerf to me. I used it to survive in teamfight but also to chase
I really love Alucard advent children skin.
I am alucard user so seing you playing and explaining it makes me feels there is hope again for me
6:25 did you just call Yu Zhong a lizard? 🤣
I realized, There's often Karina in the enemy team when Elgin plays
the POTENTIAL ALUFEED BUFFED EDITION XD
galing ng editing sir elgin!!!!!!😍
Imagine if alucard get immunity every using his passive
That's dope, tbh.
I think alucard will be like fanny and ling which will be a bit reliant on their blue buffs to reduce the cd even further
I can still remember where he used to go turtle for like really fast wayback 2016 😂
Once Leomord and Martys get a little bit more nerf, Alucard is back in banning section
7:22 Elgin do be showing us some YSS moves.
The thing is with this rework is that Alucard weakness stays exactly the same
Instead of just reducing CDR on Ulti they should also reduce his CDR on normal mode
Currently in the mg rank and ive played against 2 jungle alu despite his so called unpopularity in the highlevel ranks. And i lost both games. I think its highly likely that he is going to be a more common pick especially with his adjustments and buffs. He can easily burst squishy heroes with a quick combo and escape then after. He definitely reminds me of karina haha
He can give really heavy dmg trust me. If you build full armor pen
He does not need to sustain heavy dmg if he can finish them off quickly
Boots,
Hepta,
Hunter strike,
Malefic,
Endless,
Bod
Try it to yourself.
You will not be dependent in your ult since you can kill easily by using 1st and passive.
This is literally my build plus the marksman emblem weapon master, 1st and passive will kill any squishy hero
@@optimumpride9118 nc, haven't try that emblem yet, i've been using ass emblem movespeed,armor pen, and killing spree for so much movement so he can very easily either chase or escape
.
But yeah i'll try yours 🫰
As an alucard main im so proud haha
Even in mythic 2 i still use him
Alucard need his old life steal king title back i hope developers will buff his life steal
As a main ALU he is very strong with the recent buff especially in the early
Fun Fact: While reading this, you will manually breathe and manually blink and this will be stuck on your head for a while.
I hate u...
I am a chang'e main, I played with multiple Alu jungler and they have a good early game advantage, but when i started to get my 3 core items specially my ice queen wand they were started to rattled out. Alu can easily countered by heroes with a good poke abilities and a range skills also.
FINALLY!!!! Elgin playing alucard🤍🤍
'Before we moved on let me just steal this cabbage from karina!🤣
7:06 probably edited error
I'd preferred the Old Ultimate with short Cooldown maybe reduce it eith10 or 8% it would be better than keep on buffing the 1st & 2nd skill
Well for me that buff doesn't needed, people things Alucard bad cause they can't position or don't know when to engage in team fights. And go in like headless chicken then dies. It's just player. My main is Alucard and still dominating Mythical Glory even without those buffs.
He was my main once and I am looking forward to trying him now
When I suggested Alucard adjustment, I said: Alucard needs to have a massive right click damage. Decrease his attack growth but make his passive deal x2.0 multiplier when casting spells. That's it and I'm still waiting for Alpha's additional or attack speed from his 2nd.
Blade armor should reflect all kinds of damage seriously.
Dont, i prefer blade armor for physical attack and some new magic armor that could acummulated magic damage and then blast it when it full ( call the mirror of revenge) but an active one, so it has no cooldown but energy to fill from enemy magic damage
Blade armor should have adaptive defense & adaptive reflect
@@andrean2247 that crazy strong, no item on moba game who had adaptive defenses
@@honesty_and_beyond anyway 20% damage resistance on queen wings is adaptive. It reduces magic,phy dunno true damage reduced or not with that
@@andrean2247 once you get adaptive defense, you gonna wish everyhing got adaptive defense and attack, thats how you see thing, you get addicted
good news it was implemented on official server ... he became again the monster we knew years ago
alu is strong at level 4 now but is still alu late game. with the right tanks and support, he can be one of the strongest snowball heroes
As a alucard main, i am greatly happy that they are finally buffing alucard.
Back then it was pretty hard using alucard since he hasnt had buffs.
Mid game and late game where hell because alucard does low dmg because he lacks.
But this new alucard buffs are good since alucard needs ult if u want to do good dmg.
Thank you devs for buffing alucard💪
Alucard's one of my main junglers. Glad he got buffed
My bf tried this...that buff was Soo good alu I think is forgotten somehow but now He is BACK!!!
I think Moonton should give alucard more lifesteal :D
alu is now good only problem is ppl now banning him more and ppl w\think its easy but its not wat u experienced just now is a common phrase of 'alu late game carry' cuz his dmg lacks in the late game and he needs to be carried (its usually siad by the person olaying aluin the late game when he dies more often
Alucard is getting popular, something tells me he may be gett show his appearance in M4, considering Mobazane is been picking alu so often in rank games
Life steal and crit will always be the best especially in the past which is 100 % or maybe higher on his lifesteal when using ultimate and the passive of double damage when in solo and 5 times damage when it is a 1 VS 5 if enemy are together.😮💨
Well Time To Play Alucard Again
Is there a bug with corrosion scythe and DHS items? I cant seem to see the bonus damage numbers.
People often forget that Alucard is a fighter, not just an assassin. Use the fighter talent, " Unbending Will" together with the following items:
-Immortality
-Queen's Wings
-War Axe
-Hass Claw/BloodLust Axe
-Malefic Gun or Hunters Knife/Strife
This with either Aegies, Vengeance, or Flicker will take advantage of his sustain and damage multiplier whilst increasing his tankyness.
Hello Elgin, I asked something, how to do build on youre mini map?
Alucard is such a underrated hero
Aurora’s stun watching : 🤓
It's good but I think it kinda need abit more. Like his ult providing extra magic and physical def like yin, lapu2, Roger and Leomard or extra hp like yu zhong and thamuz. After the change of queen wings which was his only sustain item he can't sustain much nowadays like he did back then.
He is an assassin fighter, no need for extra magic or physical defence
Finally after 2 years of wait the time has come for all alu main myself include to shine🤣🤣🤣🤣
Whenever he snaps he figure out something
It's nothing new, Moonton gives the Heroes buff and a skin. I smell new skin for Alucard.
i think they need to add more resilience/fortitude on alu so he can actually fight back againts cc heroes
Alucard ulti will be more useful than before.
I can smell a new alucard skin coming out soon.
2:26 omg that was truth they applied that buff on the official server
I just faced Alucard today in EXP lane and I could say he is pretty decent
ALUCARD ULT is like ALPHAs 1st and 2nd skill with a very low cd. Imagine him using ULT and keeps attacking u with hes skills cause of hes low cd. Still we need to try it out which is best..
If only they add cc reduction (just like tough boots) on his ultimate buff time then maybe he will be played on higher ranks or in professional league.
You read my mind bro.
If we r talking about chasing ability
Can the build be
Corrosion and thunderbelt?
Along with endless and bruteforce
Malefic roar/war axe then a boot ofc
What do u think
King of life steal is back
He received another buff like today his first skill and second skill cd got reduced
Edit: Alu always dependent on his ult
only first skill cd was reduced 2nd cd already has good cd so it doesn't need to bother with my only complain was rlly the long cd of first
Its not that much tho because he still depends on his ult to chain burst enemy anyway.
Only first skill, dumbass where’d u get that that info 😂
this buff is very good so more players would choose him
