Chronos is a melee agility hero in Heroes of Newerth. He is based on Faceless Void from Defense of the Ancients: All-Stars.

Info[ | ]

Lore: The greatest inventors of the Human Legion dreamed of making an army of machine warriors to spare humans the bloody cost of war. Only one was ever created, for no one could ever find a way to quicken him. When the Hellbourne fed a stolen soul into its mechanical shell, they brought the Chronos to life and gained the benefit of this artificial monster's mastery over time itself.
 
  While frail early, a Chronos can become one of the most feared heroes in the late game after amassing a hefty amount of wealth through farming. Chronofield is best paired with ranged damagers, as it can lock down an unsuspecting team in a split second.
