Storm Spirit’s Ability
STATIC REMNANT
Creates a 12.0 second-long, explosively charged picture of Storm Spirit that will explode and deal damage to any nearby enemy units.
ELECTRIC VORTEX
A funnel that directs an adversary unit toward Storm Spirit.
OVERLOAD
When a spell is cast, an electrical charge is generated that is discharged in a burst during Storm’s subsequent strike. This electrical charge damages and slows adjacent opponents.
BALL LIGHTNING
Storm Spirit transforms into erratic electricity and charges across the battlefield until he runs out of mana or encounters his intended target. The cost each 100 units traveled is 10.0+0.7% of his entire mana pool, and the activation mana cost is 25.0+7.5% of that amount. Damage is measured in terms of harm per 100 units of travel.
