Centaur Warrunner

Bradwarden, also known as the Centaur Warrunner, is a melee strength Hero who makes an excellent initiator, tanking damage with his immense natural health pool while unleashing nukes and disables upon the enemy team. Hoof Stomp and Double Edge make a great combo of burst damage and stunning on reasonably short cooldowns, while Return discourages an enemy looking to kill Bradwarden with a lot of retaliatory damage over time. Stampede effectively turns the entire team into initiators, granting them high mobility and yet another stun/nuke in their favor upon entering the fight.

Tips

 * When trying to land Hoof Stomp on fleeing enemies, get in front of their path if possible. Most opponents will outrun the stun during the cast-time if they are already on the edge of the AoE.
 * To force a tower to attack you and utilize Return, issue an attack command upon an enemy hero when in range (even one in another lane).
 * This trick also works to aggro lane creeps.
 * You can use Stampede's movement speed boost to help allies escape or chase, given its moderate cooldown and low manacost.

Trivia

 * Centaur Warrunner has the highest strength gain in the game (+3.8 strength per level).
 * In the original DotA mod, Bradwarden's title was the Centaur Warchief.
