Shadow Baron is an epic support hero. Compared with the other 28 epic support heroes in the database, Shadow Baron sits in the middle of its class on raw stats. Among top players, the most settled part of the build is talent (Revive, 56.1%) and the least settled is pet (Grave Assault (M), only 5.1%), so the pet slot is where you have the most freedom to adapt.
The pick rate of the most popular option shows how much top players agree. Shadow Baron's top talent, Revive, is picked 56.1% of the time, which is 31.6 points more settled than the typical hero (median 24.5%).
| Slot | Top pick | Runner-up | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Talent | Revive (56.1%) | Sacred Light (7.8%) | near-universal |
| Insignia | Survival Insignia (34.4%) | Empower Insignia (24.1%) | clear favourite |
| Square Insignia | Ancient Insight Insignia (30.0%) | Winged Rebirth Insignia (24.6%) | contested |
| Equipment | Holy Conviction (23.5%) | Specter's Instinct (15.3%) | contested |
| Trait | HP (52.3%) | Accuracy (28.5%) | near-universal |
| Pet | Grave Assault (M) (5.1%) | Fragmented Time (M) (3.8%) | no consensus |
Near-universal is 50% or more, clear favourite 30–50%, contested 15–30%, no consensus under 15%. When a slot is contested, the runner-up is usually a reasonable substitute if you don't own the top pick.
| Stat | Shadow Baron | Peer median | Rank vs peers | Rank overall |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base ATK | 370 | 380 | 17 / 29 | 75 / 208 |
| Base HP | 14,000 | 13,000 | 9 / 29 | 23 / 208 |
| ATK growth per level | 18 | 18 | 14 / 29 | 64 / 208 |
| HP growth per level | 320 | 310 | 8 / 29 | 16 / 208 |
| Attack interval (lower is faster) | 1,400 ms | 1,400 | 6 / 29 | 117 / 208 |
| Move speed | 315 | 315 | 15 / 29 | 56 / 208 |
Across all 208 heroes of every rarity, base ATK ranks 75th of 208 and base HP ranks 23rd of 208. Its skill has a 7s cooldown.
These are options where Shadow Baron is one of the five heroes most likely to run them. If you're deciding which hero should get a scarce item, these are strong candidates for Shadow Baron.
19 other heroes share Shadow Baron's core pairing of Revive + Survival Insignia: Flame Darklord, Rosespecter, Tempestia, Tai Lung, Fang Huntress, Evil Harbinger, Bone Bride, Infernal Jailer, and 11 more. If you're rebuilding one of them, the same talent and insignia usually carry over.
Looking at every slot, not just talent and insignia, these heroes' builds overlap most with Shadow Baron's:
Overlap score adds up the shared pick rate across all six slots. 0 means nothing in common, and 600 would mean identical builds.
