Summary
“ The Dark Prince deals area damage and lets his spiked club do the talking for him – because when he does talk, it sounds like he has a bucket on his head.”

- Make sure to place him late so it doesn’t get knocked off early
- Support pushes

- He can takeout swarms and also take out defenders
- He is also great when paired with the Prince
- Bridge spam

- He is especially good at countering in the other lane after your opponent lays down an expensive tank, due to most cheap counters being swarms
