Gall Build Guide “Those who oppose me invite their own demise!”

Gall is the Assassin half of the entity controled by two players known as Cho'gall. The player in charge of Gall has the burden of using the entity's most powerful Abilities, whereas the second player, in control of Cho, acts as the "driver" that controls Cho's more simple Abilities, physical position, and Basic Attacks. Gall's strongest points are his high area of effect damage and outstanding resilience, due to being tied to Cho's extremely tough body. Should Cho be killed, Gall will die with him, instantly yielding two kills worth of experience to their opponents.

Given the highly unusual nature of Gall, we highly recommend that you use this guide along with our Cho guide, so as to get a better understanding of the Hero.

• Shadowflame is by far your highest source of damage. Use it whenever it is off-Cooldown, and take advantage of the fact that it deals its damage instantly.
• Dread Orb has an extremely long range; using it against nearby Structures whenever there are no better targets is an effective way of maximising its potential.
• Runic Blast requires you to be well-coordinated with your Cho partner; ask them to let you know whenver they use Rune Bomb, or pay close attention to Cho's "Bomb's out!" shout.
• Twisting Nether works particularly well with Cho's Upheaval; try and use them together. Use the Ability's movement speed reduction effect to keep enemies within attack range.
• Shadow Bolt Volley can be difficult to aim, especially if Cho is not prepared for it; let them know ahead of time!
• Shove is extremely useful for avoiding dangerous skillshots and area of effect Abilities.
• Be mindful when activating Ogre Rage in combat, as it leaves Cho 25% less resilient than he would otherwise be.

Gall is permanently attached to Cho's body, and as such, goes wherever Cho goes. Gall's Abilities have little to no utility to them, and are in stead capable of dealing large amounts of damage to multiple enemies. As such, Gall's primary goal is to lay waste to whatever comes within range and coordinate with the Cho player so as to maximise the effectiveness of their Abilities.

Given the nature of Cho'gall, communication is extremely important between the two players that are sharing the Hero, but also, with the remaining members of the team that must deal with the unusual situation of playing with only four total bodies.

Drafting-wise, Cho and Gall should almost always be picked last, for certain Heroes tend to counter them. It is also important to draft them along a Hero that is capable of performing the duties of a Tank, as Cho'gall is unsuitable to effectively perform such duties despite being labeled as a Tank by the game.

It is important to note that Cho'gall has the best late game in Heroes of the Storm, and in most games it will be important not to risk yourself during the start of the match, making sure you will reach the Level 13, 16, and 20 Powerspikes.
