Skills

Charge

The knights charge forward to destroy their foes. Even if their charge is interrupted, it will stun units and heroes in front, and increase their damage taken by 30%. For every knight that is interrupted by a hero's crowd control attack, cooldown is reduced by 6 seconds, up to a maximum of 18 seconds.

Formations

Dispersed

A loose formation that reduces unit vulnerability to ranged weapons.

Wedge

The unit forms a wedge-shaped formation to break through enemy lines.

Line

The unit stands in two ranks, making it better at frontal attacks.
