Largo’s Ability
Catchy Lick
Largo lashes his tongue at a target, dragging it slightly toward him. The ability removes existing effects and deals damage if the target is an enemy. Successfully dispelling a status grants Largo brief health regeneration.
Frogstomp
Largo throws a group of froglings into the target area. They slam the ground every second, dealing damage and briefly stunning enemies, while also slowing movement speed within the area.
Croak of Genius
Largo plays a melody for an allied hero, lowering the mana cost of their items and abilities. A portion of the damage they deal echoes over the next 5 seconds. Each time the affected hero uses mana, the remaining duration is shortened by 0.5 seconds. This reduction does not apply to Largo.
Amphibian Rhapsody
Largo prepares to perform, becoming disarmed and replacing his ability bar with three unique song abilities. Each song only takes effect when played in rhythm.
Every successful strum grants a stack of Groovin’, providing bonus armor and reducing the mana cost of all songs. Missing a beat removes one stack. When the performance ends, stacks persist briefly.
Bullbelly Blitz
Largo performs a song that boosts spell amplification for nearby allies and adds bonus magic damage to their attacks.
Hotfeet Hustle
Largo plays a song that grants increased movement speed to nearby friendly units and briefly reduces the effectiveness of slows.
Island Elixir
Largo plays a melody that heals friendly heroes within the surrounding area.
Encore
Whenever Largo casts a single-target buff on an allied hero, he receives the same buff.
If Largo targets himself, the buff is additionally applied to the closest allied hero within the ability’s cast range.
Amphibian Rhapsody
Largo can perform two songs on a single beat by strumming them simultaneously. When he plays two songs on the same beat, nearby enemies take 50 + 10 magic damage per Groovin’ stack.
