“

King of the Fire Demons.

”

A warrior who believed in the Abyss and was appointed as the leader of the Abyss Legion. Because the Fire Demons were affected by the Abyss for thousands of years and are considered the race closest to Abyss, Thamuz has always had a high sense of superiority and self-esteem.

Lore

Deep within the mountains, darkness reigns over everything. The only light is the crimson lava that flows in the bottomless crevices. Since the beginning of the Abyss's reign on the mainland, countless demons became loyal followers of the Abyss. Fervent in their beliefs, the demons chant the will of the Abyss in these deep caverns—Only the strong deserve to rule!

Guarding the Abyss for millenniums, a tribe of fire demons nearly became the rulers of the Abyss. Thamuz, the king of the fire demons, and his people made the Abyss into a formidable power. unabashed to use cruel methods in achieving his goals. Possessing ungodly natural strength, Thamuz was appointed chief of the Abyss, who led the Abyss to conquer all of the underworld.

To Thamuz, all of his opponents were worthless scum, unworthy of living in this world. In his eyes, only he was worthy to [leading]. Thamuz could not accept the Blood Demon, Alice, as her bloodline was not pure — Thus, unworthy to command and enter war.

With the gates to the Abyss about to open, legions of demons eagerly await Thamuz's return. However, once the King of Fire Demons returns, he will burn away all the weak demons — Only the strong deserve to be a part of the Abyssal Army. Thamuz has been waiting for the day he leads the Abyssal Army across the Land of Dawn to let it be known—Only the strong shall reign!

Abilities

Passive

Grand Lord Lava Debuff Thamuz's  Basic Attacks have a 10%-60% chance (based on Lava's Rage) to conjure Lava Energy beneath the target that erupts after a brief delay, dealing 55 (+8 × Hero Level) (+60% Total Physical Attack) True Damage. Basic Attacks that don't trigger Lava Energy will increase Thamuz's Lava Rage. When without Scythes, Thamuz gains 25% Movement Speed. After retrieving his Scythes, his next Basic Attack slows the target by 30% and is guaranteed to trigger Lava Energy Skill terms Physical Basic Attack Deal Physical Damage to enemies. Triggers ATK Effects and Lifesteal. True Damage If there is no way to reduce damage taken, you can try increasing Max HP. Movement Speed Movement Speed on the battlefield. Usually Calculated and Actual Movement Speed is equal. But when Movement Speed is below 230 or over 420 both Slowdown and Speedup Effect will decay. Calculated Movement Speed = Basic Movement Speed × (100% + All Speedup Effect% - All Slowdown Effect%).

Skill 1

Molten Scythes AOE Slow Thamuz tosses Scythes in the target direction. After travelling for a certain distance or hitting the first enemy hero, they deal 120–270 (+60% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage. The Scythes will then slow nearby enemies by 30% and deal 45–80 (+20% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage every 0.5 seconds. After leaving Thamuz for [≈5 seconds] or a certain distance, the Scythes will return to Thamuz and drag enemies in their path to him.

The Scythes do not stop upon hitting minions (added on Patch Notes 1.6.84). Thamuz cannot cast the 2nd phase of Molten Scythes for approximately 0.2 seconds after casting the same skill. Retrieving the scythes by tapping again the skill is not considered as a skill cast. Thamuz can use this skill while under CC effects, including Suppression. Unlike his passive, the enhanced basic attack gained from retrieving the scythes is considered a movement ability, meaning Phoveus can benefit from it through Demonic Force.

Skill 2

Chasm Trample Mobility Buff Thamuz jumps to a designated area to deal 230–355 (+60% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage and slow the enemy units by 25% for 2 seconds upon landing.

New Hero Lord Lava Thamuz Mobile Legends Bang Bang!

Lava Lord Rises - New Hero - Thamuz Trailer - Mobile Legends- Bang Bang!

Trivia

Lore

• In the Determination event, Thamuz claims himself as the Lord of Darkness and wants Lunox to join him.^{[citation needed]}

• Thamuz appears in Helcurt lore, wherein when Helcurt was tasked to defend the Sovereign of the Abyss, Obsidia, the opposing forces marching towards her palace were led by none other than the Lord Lava himself.

• In Dyrroth's trailer, Thamuz praises Dyrroth, seeing a part of himself in the demon prince, mentioning that he "inherited his brutality and valor".

• Dyrroth also mentions Thamuz in one of his voicelines, mocking how his enemy should've been taught by Thamuz instead, praising his own technique.

• Thamuz is also half-heartedly mentioned in two of Helcurt's voicelines, describing him to be a "walking puddle of lava with a pair of dull blades", whilst also mockingly calling out to him. Their relationship could be attributed to that of a father and a family pet.
• Thamuz seems to show genuine empathy towards his kind, depicting him as a strict yet well-meaning ruler, prioritizing his tribe's survival over all else as shown in multiple artworks posted on official accounts.
• A silhouette that looks very similar to Thamuz appears in Nolan's cinematic, A New Journey, wherein he talks about the origins of the Light and Darkness and the Era of Strife. Considering that the events are implied to have taken place an unknown amount of time in the past, it could be theorized that Thamuz has been fighting for the Abyss for longer than assumed.

Belerick Sacrificed Himself! Who's Responsible?

• During the Abyss's invasion of the Moonlit Forest (in "Belerick Sacrificed Himself! Who's Responsible?"), Thamuz indirectly killed Belerick, as he sacrificed his life to defend the Tree of Life.
• When Belerick was revived, his skillset was revamped to better counter continuously damaging opponents ^{[citation needed]}. One such enemy, being Thamuz.
• Whether or not Belerick grew specifically to defend against him is unclear.
  • However, there have been multiple real-life cases of plants evolving and adapting to specific threats.

Demons Approaching

• In the official comic "Demons Approaching" debuting Brody, Benedetta, and Phoveus, Thamuz reveals that he is in possession of one of the "Nine Demon Lords of the Abyss", an orange crystal that Astaros recognizes as 'Gamunti'. Due to Phoveus's revamped lore however, it is unclear on whether or not this remains canon.

The Abyss: Sovereign's Will / Post-Revamp

• In the cinematic Sovereign's Will, Thamuz interrupts Alice and Dyrroth from harvesting Obsidia's blood. Convinced that her corruption still lives within her bloodstream, he expresses his frustration as a result of Obsidia's past crimes against his people, corrupting them into Spawns of Decay.
• Shortly after, Thamuz encounters a corrupted Fire Demon, hesitating, before being forced to kill it, fueling his rage further.
  • Due to the small stature of the Fire Demon, it is possible that Thamuz was forced to kill a juvenile member of his species ^{[citation needed]}, making it the second depiction of a youth's death, the first being Mila, in Arlott's lore.
• In Obsidia's concept video, Thamuz's race, the Fire Demons, do not seem to naturally grow a head as he does when compared to the usual depictions of his kind. This might suggest that Thamuz may have carved it himself to assert his dominance as the rightful Lord Lava.
  • This is further reinforced by the entry in Chapter 1 of his Mastery Code, where Thamuz is described to have "forged his body from lava".
• In the seasonal story for Season 38, Obsidia encounters a Fire Demon corrupted by the God of Darkness and on the verge of turning into a Spawn of Decay, breaking down as he fears for not only for himself, but for his tribesmen.
  • The fire demon, in his last moments, isolates himself from the rest of his people to protect them from disease, in the name of Lord Thamuz.

Nexus Sea

• The Annihilator is heavily based off of H.P. Lovecraft and his works of cosmic horror, primarily of the Cthulhu mythos, wherein beings commonly known as the "Outer Gods" (a term popularized by the heavily Lovecraft inspired roleplaying game "Call of Cthulhu") exist beyond human comprehension.
  • They are described to serve purposes far beyond mortal understanding, and are known by many names (in Thamuz's case, he's also known as "The Great Scourge"), very similar to the skin's accompanying lore.
• Additionally, a squid-like buckle adorned with wings can be seen on his model, heavily reminiscent of Cthulhu's (the titular Outer God) most common depiction.

Miscellaneous

• Thamuz's original hero showcase video on the official YouTube channel had an abrupt change in thumbnail design.^{[citation needed]}
• Thamuz had four different walking animations for his Scytheless form throughout his development.
  • In the advanced server prior to his release, Thamuz used to run on all fours without his scythes.
  • On release, he instead walked on his hind legs, slightly leaned in with his arms stretched outward.
  • On his soft rework on Patch 1.6.84 on May 24, 2022, his posture was changed to be straighter and started to jog, more akin to how a human person would run.^{[citation needed]}
  • However, this change would soon be rolled back to the previous version an unknown amount of updates later.
  • On his revamp on September 17, 2025, he was given a new scytheless animation, similar to his removed one on Patch 1.6.84.
• Thamuz was the first hero introduced from the Abyss faction, predating heroes like Alice, Dyrroth, and Selena in the lore.
• His passive Grand Lord Lava was one of the first abilities in the game to consistently deal true damage based on enemies' HP.
• Some players compare his look to Balrog from Lord of the Rings or Ifrit from Final Fantasy.
• His weapons, Molten Scythes, return to him on their own, similar to boomerangs.
• After his revamp, Thamuz now has different glow effects on his model during his ultimate, depending on his skin.
• When Thamuz moves, a lava trail forms behind him, showing his burning presence. He is one of the few heroes whose footsteps leave elemental effects on the battlefield.
  • Unfortunately, this has been since removed after his revamp.

• On December 18th, 2025, Thamuz received a skin survey with a design very reminiscent of Khorne, a deity of chaos known in the Warhammer franchise.^{[citation needed]}
• Thamuz shares the same Japanese-language voice actor, Nakamura Taishi, with Franco and Grock.
