Kilgor

center|375x375px
"At a young age, Kilgor defeated his father for the title of clan chief. His fame was spread throughout Krewold ever since. Many consider him the only warrior capable of winning this generation's Festival of Life."
Kilgor, the most powerful of the Barbarian Kings, has unparalleled endurance, which he imbues his warriors with. His Behemoths also enjoy a tremendous upgrade, making them powerful leaders of the barbarian horde.

Darkruler:
In the current Sandro and Astral meta game, Kilgor benefits the most out of First Aid, Tactics, Mysticism and Wisdom.
Note that in the future, Wisdom will be replaced by Archery as other Stronghold specific units get released.

Darkruler: Mana Suppression
There are a lot of options when it comes to Kilgor.
You have the budget option in the form of Mirth (works well and counters Sandro's Low Morale).
If you can spare the mana, Mystic Domain can shut down opposing units (via silence).
Right now I am getting the best results out of Mana Suppression. With other heroes also running it, you can't afford to be mana starved for your ultimate (you want to cast it immediately as it goes out of cooldown). An active spell mark might therefore be something you cannot afford.

==By Darkruler(10th August, 2020)==
1. What does Kilgor play like and which players would enjoy him the most?
Right now Kilgor is not the top of the pack, so if you are looking for absolute power he is not your immediate go-to hero.
If you already have a good Behemoth he can be an interesting candidate. Also if you like the playstyle of starting to dominate the game sufficiently up to a point where your Behemoth alone can tore apart your opposing army.
As the game goes on and spell-casters start falling from meta, heroes like Kilgor will get better and better. So patience is another important ingredient here.
Finally, I added two videos below. If you can find satisfaction the same way I do in similar matches, then you will like Kilgor.

2. What are Kilgor's biggest strengths?
Kilgor is one of the more affordable faction leaders when it comes to units and investment. Similar to Xeron's Devil, he builds his army setup and strategy around the main faction SSR the Behemoth.
However, unlike Xeron, he relies more on resilience, as the battles last longer - Behemoth doesn't output so much damage so fast, but he's also much more resistant, changing the style of play.
3. What about weaknesses?
Kilgor has a hard time in our current meta game vs same powerlevel Astral, or higher powerlevel Sandro. Positioning is key in both cases. You can still win vs. a 300k more power Sandro if you position your units well and have manual control.
In both cases he is vulnerable to control effects, silence and stun. These will prevent your units from activating their abilities, which you will need to prolong the battle to reach a position of advantage.
4. Which would you say are the core creatures and why?
Behemoth is an absolutely must for playing Kilgor. Unlike Devil he is much more resilient while also sufficiently dangerous, so you can therefore build around him. But you do need a high starred Behemoth (minimum 5*), and Kilgor himself at least 3* for your build to start to shine.
Of course it goes without saying you need to support the Behemoth with a very solid Stronghold Roster. You will also want to hunt for ATK/DEF buffs (Artifacts, Global Hero Mastery, Spell Bookshelf etc).
Supplementary source of bonuses lies in other heroes' global talents (usually 3*) that provide an extra advantage to your army. These include Crag Hack, Mephala, Kendal, Gelu, though optionally Dracon and Adelaide can also help.
Kilgor's abilities have synergy with other Stronghold units, true. But the key lies in the Behemoth.
5. What is your recommended formation for Kilgor?
Team wise you always run Kilgor in a two tank formation with Behemoth and Ogre. There are 2-3 versions of the last 6 units depending on your power level and the type of enemy you encounter.
The standard formation is presented above (top or bottom lanes, with Cyclops and Roc on the outside). With it you can easily manage any F2P hero out there.
With Sandro you may want to switch out 9x units to avoid getting them one-shotted by his spells. I usually replace:
* Goblin - Bone Dragon or Naga
* Orc - Efreti or Green Dragon
In defense, equal power Sandro will usually win as he will flank you.
Astral games usually end up in draw at similar power levels.
6. People are asking more and more about awakenings. Any tips here?
* Ogre Magi - he is flexible when it comes to awakening choices I went with left side. 
** Recovery Pond to amplify healing more for your Behemoth.
** Wild Heart due to the improved damage reduction. (as opposed to damage which is not Ogre's forte anyway)
** Ancient Surge for even more healing, since my Ogre generally does not die (or not early enough to take sufficient advantage of the right choice), but it depends on your composition and Ogre power level.
* Thunderbird - also choose the left side. 
** Thunderstorm since Roc is mostly about damage, so with this choice it will make short work of 9x units.
** Hunting Instinct, once again for more damage.
** Last tier are kind of similar, as both choices have ups and downs. Choose whatever works for you better.
* Behemoth - go with the right side. 
** Violent Roar stuns all melee units which is tremendously powerful.
** Bloodlust Rampage is the more defensive option, which fits into Kilgor's playstyle (more of a turtle approach).
** With Unyielding Anger Behemoth becomes almost impossible to kill. Ancient Fury's immunity to disease is useless since Kilgor already grants this to Behemoth.
