Warner Bros release a new Battle Profile gameplay video for Guardians of Middle-earth. The Battle Profile features the White Lady of Rohan, Eowyn, a true Shieldmaiden who fights to defend Middle-earth with her sword skills that rival any Rohirrim and Mozgog, an Orc who can stay in the fight long after others would have bled out. Every swing of Mozgog’s terrible sword may be the end of an enemy, since Orc warriors like Mozgog are by definition, treacherous and brutal enough to claw their way into a position of power.
Éowyn Bio:
Proud, courageous, and a skilled warrior in her own right, Éowyn is a true shieldmaiden of Rohan. Raised in the Golden Hall of Edoras and expected to dwell there rather than take part in battle, Éowyn cannot be restrained from defending her king, Thèoden, and the lands of the Mark that she loves. Eager to take part in the fight for Middle-earth rather than being left behind in Thèoden’s halls, Éowyn’s skill with a sword rivals any Rohirrim. Known to many as the White Lady of Rohan, she prefers to be known for her bravery and prowess in battle, which none can deny.
Éowyn Gameplay Abilities:
Shieldmaiden: Shields self and nearby Allies
Great Renown: Heals Allies at the cost of own Health
Know My Fury: Roots nearby enemies
I Am No Man: Damages targets and stuns all Enemies
Éowyn’s Class:
• Defender
Mozgog Bio:
Orc warriors like Mozgog are by definition those treacherous and brutal enough to claw their way into a position of power. Having killed many jealous Orcs to reach his standing in the armies of Mordor, Mozgog has no friends and many mortal enemies, making him as dangerous as a cornered animal. Forays into Gondor to harry the enemies of Sauron have earned him the loathing of the proud soldiers of the South, but many have fallen seeking revenge. Mozgog can stay in the fight long after others would have bled out, and every swing of Mozgog’s terrible sword may be the end of an enemy.
Mozgog Gameplay Abilities:
Berserker Rage: Increases own Movement and Attack Speeds, Health
Vile Taunt: Taunts Enemies and reflects Damage
Brutal Draught: Trades Health for increased Damage
Bloodied Blade: Area attack with Damage and Fear
