The mystic light of the north have always been a natural wonder for the people of the planet. Never was it thought possible for them to be used as a weapon. Used as the final blow to finish of his enemies, this secret weapon of the cosmos paladin never fails to finish its target.

Level 1 - Summons three beams of light from the heavens and the swirl around him. Light beams deal 50 magical damage per second and lasts for 5 seconds. Each 2.5 seconds, the beam has a 25 % chance to stun the enemy. At the end of the spell. The spell dissipates and damages 250 damage in a 300 AoE of the cosmos paladin.

Level 2 - Summons three beams of light from the heavens and the swirl around him. Light beams deal 60 magical damage per second and lasts for 7.5 seconds. Each 2.5 seconds, the beam has a 25 % chance to stun the enemy. At the end of the spell. The spell dissipates and damages 300 damage in a 300 AoE of the cosmos paladin.

Level 3 - Summons three beams of light from the heavens and the swirl around him. Light beams deal 70 magical damage per second and lasts for 10 seconds. Each 2.5 seconds, the beam has a 25 % chance to stun the enemy. At the end of the spell. The spell dissipates and damages 350 damage in a 300 AoE of the cosmos paladin.

Scepter upgrade - Summons three beams of light from the heavens and the swirl around him. Light beams deal 80 magical damage per second and lasts for 10 seconds. Each 2.5 seconds, the beam has a 25 % chance to stun the enemy. At the end of the spell. The spell dissipates and damages 450 damage in a 300 AoE of the cosmos paladin.

Mana Cost: 170/180/200
Cooldown: 60/70/80
Framework: Solarion raises his hands and 3 lunar beams come down around him (does not deal damage) and then start circling him like Necrolyte's aura. When dissipated, the beams will burst and radiate out in a powedery and misty way.

Logic behind the idea

Okay. Now on towards the skill synergies for this hero.

->

{Optional}

The main idea of this hero is to chase the enemies one on one. To engange, turn on your ultimate and blink in and start whacking. If creeps are present, use the shadow chains to slow him even more before starting to hit the enemy. Even in a team battle, Solarion is very useful to finish off the fleeing enemies by chaining them and start hitting the enemy. Your ultimate is also useful for attacking the enemy when they are gathered in a group. So, in addition to the spell combo, you may want to add blink -> ulti -> chain -> Shiva -> whack or Ultimate -> lothars -> whack -> chain -> shiva -> whack

So, the suggested Item build for this hero would be

Boots of travel
Lothar's Edge/Kelen' Blink Dagger of Escape
Shiva's Guard
Assault Curiass
Vanguard (upgrade to heart?)
Vladimir's Offering

However, this hero lacks in power early game and wound only be lucky to assist in a first blood due to the low damage output. Able to start ganking and killing at level 6 when he gets his ultimate and his added move speed, attack speed and slow.
