Complete Dota Underlords skill guide!

The skills (ults) in Dota Underlords are the skills that heroes use once they fill their mana bars. Each hero has his specific ult and knowing the effects of each piece on the board is crucial to optimize his position and make the most of each unit. Which heroes in the game heal? Which cause damage to the area? Which stun? Our skill guide will explain all of that! The list below is classified into 8 categories:

  • Abilities that deal instant damage
  • Abilities that do damage over time
  • Skills with crowd control effect (CC)
  • Healing skills
  • Skills that cause debuffs
  • Skills that grant buffs
  • Summoning skills
  • Skills with specific effects
Warning : some heroes will appear on more than one table because their abilities have more than one effect. Some even have 3 or 4 different effects.
