Gall is a Ranged Assassin hero from the Warcraft universe, and a part that makes up the caster half of Cho'gall. This character is unique in that one player controls Gall while the other controls the Cho half of the hero.

Background

Though Cho'gall was extremely powerful, he was also dangerously insane. The Twilight's Hammer clan, less of a tribe and more of a religious cult, was devoted to bringing about the apocalypse. In his capacity as a chieftain and as the right hand of Gul'dan, Cho'gall aided his master in the creation of the death knights and the Altars of Storms, and in the transformation of normal ogres into ogre magi.
