Bounty Hunter

Gondar the Bounty Hunter is a melee agility Hero that excels in dealing high amounts of damage to single targets. Bounty Hunter can easily gank other lanes, using his Shadow Walk to sneak up on enemies and get easy kills. Shadow Walk also allows him to escape from dangerous situations, making him very elusive. Bounty Hunter can be played as a carry, though it is not recommended. Bounty Hunter is also extremely deadly as an offlaner, thanks to Track, which will grant True Sight, movement speed, and bonus gold, and Jinada, which amplifies the damage of his next attack every few seconds.

 * Desolator reduces the target's armor, enhancing the physical damage they receive, as well as providing an extra sixty damage.

Situational items:
 * Monkey King Bar gives an eighty-eight damage boost and fifteen attack speed as well as countering most forms of evasion.
 * Vladmir's Offering allows Bounty Hunter to gain a Lifesteal while still benefiting from a separate Unique Attack Modifier. The basic mana and health regen it provides makes him a more independent roamer, and the bonus damage improves his ability to eliminate targets quickly.
 * Assault Cuirass' armor increases the survivability and attack speed of Bounty Hunter and nearby allies while decreasing the armor of nearby enemies, weakening their ability to resist physical damage.
 * Diffusal Blade's active ability allows Bounty Hunter to not only slow enemy heroes and destroy enemy summons, but also to purge himself of debuffs such as Dust of Appearance.
 * Linken's Sphere protects Bounty Hunter from a spell targeted on him every seventeen seconds, which increases his survivability in fights and may prevent a target from disabling Bounty Hunter before he can kill them.
 * Black King Bar will shield Bounty Hunter from spells while also providing him with a small boost to his health and damage output.
 * Orchid Malevolence provides an active ability that not only silences its target and prevents it from retaliating with spells, it also causes that target to take increased damage. The passive intelligence and mana regeneration it provides allows Bounty Hunter to maintain his mana pool between ganks, while the attack damage and speed it provides will bolster his damage output.
 * Medallion of Courage is an inexpensive way of increasing Bounty Hunter's single target damage while also providing him with some much-needed mana regeneration.

Tips

 * Track provides a great deal of benefits to the team, the vision and movement speed help with ganking enemies as well as with avoiding enemy ganks, and the bonus gold will provide a big advantage over the enemy team if you get kills. You should try to cast it on every enemy hero, though priority targets should be carries as well as those that can go invisible.


 * Despite being classified a carry, Bounty Hunter is also a strong ganker. Your abilities give you a great deal of power in the mid game, you should use this time to gank enemies as the bonus gold from Track more than makes up for the farm you may miss.


 * It is possible to get the bonus damage of Shadow Walk twice by attacking once during the fade time and once to break the invisibility. This can help securing last hits or harassing.


 * Getting an Orb of Venom is an extremely effective item when ganking in the early phase of the game as the 12% slow together with the slow from Jinada can make your opponent much easier to kill.

Trivia

 * In DotA, Gondar shared the same hero model and dialogue as Akama, a playable Broken Draenei hero in the campaign of Warcraft III: Frozen Throne, and later an NPC in World of Warcraft.
 * Gondar's line, " bount_battlebegins_01.mp3 No job is too big, no fee is too big." is a reference to the movie Ghostbusters.
