“Give those sweeping arms room.”

Lore

Whitebough's shaggy giants emerge from snowbound dens when fighting reaches their territory. Their sweeping blows punish defenders gathered too closely.

Combat behavior

White fur, charcoal face, hands and feet; no accessories. The Yeti is visibly larger than the Giant, which is larger than the Frostbound Reaver.

A planted windup leads into a frontal physical sweep against up to three nearby defenders. Contact resolves once; death or interruption cancels pending contact. Ordinary single-target melee remains available.

No fear, stun, freeze, tower disable or magical crowd-control aura. No Crownless allegiance is established.

  • Heavy single-target melee.
  • Sweep: 44 damage, three targets, 9s cooldown.

How to counter

  • Spread defenders outside the sweep.
  • 0.75s windup; three-target cap.
