==Skills==
Royal Edict 
: King Denas empowers nearby towers with a purple aura in a large AoE radius. The aura grants towers 20% extra attack speed and range for a set amount of time. Barracks are not affected by this skill. (Cooldown: 10 seconds)

Catapult Barrage 
: King Denas orders his subordinates away from the war zone to unleash mayhem on a small area located on the path via an 'X' mark. Catapults fire on the 'X' mark on the area, dealing damage. King Denas can move without interrupting the skill as long as the 'X' mark is present. The projectiles ignore 1/2 armor. Cooldown: 12 seconds.

==Tips and Tricks==
*King Denas is a hybrid offensive physical damage hero adept in empowering towers and supporting his chokepoints.
*Similar to Bolin Farslayer, King Denas lacks synergy with his skills when it comes to melee combat, so it is discouraged to send him in melee combat. Rather, focus on his quick ranged attacks so he can level up quicker.
*Royal Edict can be used to raise experience whilst waiting for the next wave timer to clock out. This provides some breathing space and a much refreshed King Denas for battle.
*By micromanaging King Denas, you can time the best possible moments to catch as many enemies under Catapult Barrage, even if it means not often using Royal Edict.
*King Denas has a unique "minimum range", where he cannot attack enemies too close to him. Put him slightly behind your men or on the edges of paths to avoid this.
*Players should note that King Denas can tank moderately against a group of enemies such as Shadow Archers or Demons, but keep in mind to retreat when his health is low in order to avoid a 15-seconds respawn.
*King Denas moves slowly like Malik Hammerfury, Bolin Farslayer and Hacksaw, thus it is important not to switch lanes unless urgently required.
*Note that Barracks and their upgrades are not affected by Denas' Royal Edict; thus, it is pointless to move to a path full of Barracks. Players should instead create different towers around your Barracks to maximize the use of Royal Edict.
*Do not send Denas against bosses with instant kill mechanics like J.T., Vez'nan or Sarelgaz, as he lacks the speed to kite them efficiently.
==Related Upgrades==
* Spiked Armor (3 Stars)
**When attacked, soldier's spiked armor return a percent of the damage received to the attacker. (10% reflection of damage, dealt as True Damage)
==Range==
*Scope = 300 in ranged
==Quotes==
*"Bow... to the KING!"
*"Go ahead, make my day!"
*"Get off my land."
*"For me!!!"
*When triggering Royal Edict: *garbled babbling*
*Also when triggering Royal Edict: "You slacker!" (This is what it sounds like, though it's probably just prattle that sounds that way.)
*When triggering Catapult Barrage: "Attack!!"
*(upon death) "Ahhhg!"
==Trivia==
*'Denas' is an anagram of 'Sande', the first surname of Gonzalo Sande, one of the three founders of Ironhide Game Studio.
*"Go ahead, make my day!" 
** A line spoken by Harry Callahan in the film Sudden Impact. The film is part of the Dirty Harry series, making it the second quote from the series, the first made by Bolin.
*"For me!"
** A twist on the phrase shouted by Barracks soldiers, "For the King!"
