He's ridiculously powerful, unstoppable even, later in the game.  Once he gets good movement speed & can slow down opposing demis well then UB is insane.

I cleared out an entire wave of mobs in two swings with UB and it was my fist time playing him with mediocre items and level....I think that maybe you played him badly? Try playing him again, or watch someone who knows how to play him - that would change your perspective methinks.

I agree . UB is good only VS A.I.  In real game is not really what we can call a Beast.

I do have done some crazy thing with it but it was rather because we were in a 3v3 or more and i could sneak in the fight.

just... sickening...

Even...beastly?

Sorry sorry, I couldn't resist

Hahaha, that was pretty good

Then gimme karma!

The beast imo have been nerfed a little too much (mostly the bestial wrath).

Compare this to regulus .. hes ranged, can activate his wings to give more damage than the beast (not normal since hes ranged character so he already have advantage) and on top of this, the bestial wrath is only good for 10 or 15sec ?  while  regulus can maintain this power form for a much longer time.

Your also getting hit hard from the little lvl 1 creeps it is complicated to creep in 1v1on prison. And again , I look at reggulus who just throw mines and get away unharmed...

It is supposed to be a BEAST. It doesnt look like that in beta 2. Regulus look more like a beast lol.

Demigod balance changes with the number of demigods and the size of the map, just like item balance changes. UCB is definitely not durable like Rook - but it seems like on a large map a well-played UCB could run rings around an average Rook whereas on Prison he'd get rocked in the face before you can say "Plague" - much like Regulus can dominate Prison on account of his snipe's range and damage combined with a tracking device, but isn't quite as great in a ten-man match on the Ziggurat. Oak is great - an Oak backing up a Rook is amazing. One Torchbearer is good - five Torchbearers can stun the entire enemy team for stupidly long periods of time, saturating them with AoEs all the while.

And if you think that the rage is bad, please remember that there are a variety of items that A: boost attack rate further and B: have a chance to do something on a hit. UCB gets a proportionally better chance to nail an enemy - or a bunch of enemies if he's raging. So a good strategy for him might actually be killing enemy demigods by abusing their creep waves.

Even his flavor suggests that while he's good at combat he's better at hit-and-run. He's the spirit of pestilence, with a damage-over-time attack. Trying to play him as a stand-up fighter against a Rook will probably result in you cleaning bits of Beast off of the level, yeah, but saying that he's got no other use seems a bit hasty.
