== Trivia == * Azmodan was mentioned in ''Diablo'' (December 1996), but did not make an in-game appearance until ''Diablo III'' (May 2012). * Azmodan is voiced by David Sobolov.<ref>[http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/7054209/the-voices-of-diablo-iii-part-one-9-13-2012 The Voices of Diablo III, Part One]</ref> * Azmodan was one of the three heroes revealed at Gamescom 2014.<ref>2014-08-13, [http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/15200759/new-heroes-revealed-at-gamescom-2014-8-13-2014 New Heroes Revealed at Gamescom 2014], accessed on 2014-08-13</ref> * Azmodan is the largest assassin hero in the game. * Azmodan is one of four demons in the game, the others being [[Diablo]], [[The Butcher]], and [[Mephisto]]. * One of Azmodan's gag quotes ("Nephalems and Woozles") refers to "Heffalumps and Woozles" from the Disney short, ''Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day'' (December 1968). * Despite being classified as a 'Lesser Evil', Azmodan is extremely powerful and has long warred with Diablo for dominance over the Burning Hells. Their rivalry eventually led Azmodan to stage a successful ''coup d'etat'' against Diablo, ending in Diablo's exile from the Burning Hells and beginning the events of the original ''Diablo'' game. * Azmodan was designed to match his reputation as a masterful (although overconfident) military commander and tactician of Hell. Although he went through many iterations on his individual abilities, Azmodan stayed a specialist hero during development. The developers made sure he would focus on pushing down enemy forts with summoned units, bombarding enemies from afar with siege abilities, or conscripting mercenary camps. They wanted to do Azmodan the justice of being powerful in his own right, strength that a true Lord of Hell would deserve. In ''Heroes of the Storm'', Azmodan is certainly able to wade into the thick of battle himself: he's got more health than any other specialist currently, and his All Shall Burn ability is excellent for focused damage on enemy heroes and structures. Obviously Azmodan prefers going into battle with an army of minions and mercenaries at his back, but whatever the situation, he won't be going down without a fight.<ref>[http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/16353767/developer-insights-azmodan-tells-all-10-15-2014 Developer Insights: Azmodan Tells All]</ref> * Due to his size, Azmodan is limited to [[mounts]] he can stand on (such as Blackheart's Doubloon, Champion's Nexagon, Championship Banner, Hearthstone Card, Magic Carpet, Star Chariot, and Void Speeder). * Azmodan's "Azmodunk" skin originates from ''Heroes'' tournaments. People commented that Azmodan was "dunking" on the enemy, as his fireball looked like a big basketball, and he hurled it like he was throwing a three-pointer. The nickname was coined, and the community desire for a skin was noticed by the developers. The developers found a place in their skin development cycle, and created the Azmodunk skin.<ref>''[[Forging Worlds: Stories Behind the Art of Blizzard Entertainment]]'', p.g. 180</ref>
