The Iron Commander


 * Orc mercenary and challenger of authority. - Mallhalla purchase description

Xull is an orcish Legend in Brawlhalla featuring the Axe and Cannon as his weapons. He can be unlocked for 5400 gold.

As the story goes...

 * "Orcs can live up to three hundred years. Due to lifestyle choices, few survive past eight." - Ogedai the Chronicler

Xull seized command of the Iron Legion form the Troll Titan with a brutal down stroke. His first order was to create a cannon brigade. His second order was that cowardly long-range combat would not be tolerated.

As warlord of the mercenary army, he was savage, vengeful, and extremely effective. In battle, he rode on t-rex and swung a deadly steel trap made from his predecessor. His innovative use of the tactic "minotaur release" is still studied today.

Under Xull the Iron Legion grew rich and powerful. Recruiting was simple - he placed a generous bounty in his own head. Anyone fearless enough to attempt to claim it, and tough enough to survive the resulting beatdown, would be offered their own lives as the Legion's signing bonus.

His physical strength was legendary, and he would fight any challenger for any stakes. He only ever lost one, and he honored that wager, switching sides in the Undead Wars, despite being certain she must have somehow cheated.

In Valhalla, Xull knows he should always lead. He challenged Kor for leadership of the Golem Underground. He challenged Thor for leadership of Thursday. He challenged Scarlet for leadership of the Valhallan Ladies Book Club. At Ragnarok, he will lead a great army, and it makes little difference to him what side that army is on.

Appearance
Xull is a green-skinned rough-looking orc. His gloves are studded with spikes that complement the skull that's attached to his pelt. His face is one only a mother could love, with an underbite so big it's no wonder no one wants to challenge him. However, his beard gets a 8/10 for best beards in Brawlhalla.

Strategy
Due to Xull's extreme attack stat, the player's instinct may be to be very aggressive - however, this would be a mistake. Many of his signature attacks are sluggish, and hugely telegraphed, requiring "trapping" the opponent into getting struck by them with clever positioning - and in addition to this, many of his signatures do NOT hit stacked opponents. This means the most powerful attacks in his arsenal are guaranteed to leave him vulnerable if there's more than one opponent on the field. Discretion - and light attacks - should be used in group melees. Despite his brutish strength and demeanor, he is a Legend best suited for duelling - that is, one on one combat - as opposed to mass forays such as Free-For-All.

A great strategy with Xull is not to attack constantly but to always punish your opponent for trying to get the upper hand. Every situation is different but Xull can hit hard, and bite back even harder. His strength guarantees that while he has his challenges with ensuring a hit will land, those that do land will not soon be forgotten.
