There are legends passed through the halls of Arcane Study. Many are simply tales told to inspire young Sorcerers and give them something to strive for. The Legends surrounding Kai are all too true. Before his tale was an epic, Kai was a young apprentice Sorcerer aiding his master in the creation of golems, both for war and for personal use. This all worked out well until a golem went berserk during an imortant ritual. Kai and the golem were thrust into the center of it and something strange happened... The two bodies were destroyed and from them a new one was formed from Mana and willpower. When Kai awoke, he was no longer human. No, he was now something beyond the understanding of any wizard. He was now a being crafted from magic. And gifted with unsurpassed control ofer its flow. For a long tme, Kai remained hidden; ashamed of his new form but when the call for battle came, he knew he could use this form to his advantage. He now stands by the heroes of the Sentinel, defending the world tree from any who would dare attack it.



Mindstab
By contorting the flows of mana in the proper way, Kai can 'stab' an enemy in their mind, causing pain and taking some of their mana.

[1] Deals 65 damage and burns 55 mana.
[2] Deals 90 damage and burns 80 mana.
[3] Deals 115 damage and burns 105 mana.
[4] Deals 140 damage and burns 130 mana.


Note: 0.1 mini-stun is caused by this skill.
Manacost: 125/140/155/170
Cooldown: 15/11/7/4



Mana Tithe
Kai's power over mana allows him to distort and warp the flow of mana by casting even the most simple cantrip, however, his connection can easily backfire.

[1] Constantly burns 2 a second mana from all units around Kai. Burns 60 mana.
[2] Constantly burns 5 a second mana from all units around Kai. Burns 90 mana.
[3] Constantly burns 8 a second mana from all units around Kai. Burns 120 mana.
[4] Constantly burns 11 a second mana from all units around Kai. Burns 150 mana.

Note: AoE is a constant 500. If an enemy casts within your AoE, you get burned.

Passive

Spell Burst
On occasion, Kai is able to dispurse spells that are fired at him into the area around him, negating the damage to him and increasing the pain for his enemies.

[1] 12% to deflect spell.
[2] 18% to deflect spell.
[3] 24% to deflect spell.
[4] 30% to deflect spell.

Note: Kai takes no damage from deflected spells. AoE 500. Deflected spells still set of Mana Tithe, but Spell Burst does Trigger Mana Tithe.
Passive
Manacost: Equal to the spell deflected


Counterspell
Kai's strong connection to the channels of mana around him gives the Arcane Avatar the unique ability to dispell an enemie's magic before it can be cast.


[1] Costs x4.5 the manacost of the attacker's spell. AoE 450
[2] Costs x3.0 the manacost of the attacker's spell. AoE 500
[3] Costs x1.5 the manacost of the attacker's spell. AoE 550

Cooldown: 5
Manacost: 10

Meant to be toggled on and off as needed. If an enemy casts within Mana Tithe's AoE and you have Counterspell active, you take no damage, but your foe does. Spell Burst does not work while this is active



Thiss started out as a bunch of random skills Bard Man randomly thought up on a boring day when his internet was down. Now they are part of a new hero. Huzzah!

No, Spell Burst over-rides HoD's resistance.

Fragile? You can say that again. Any "right-click-ftw" agility hero will rip this hero apart. With a strength gain of +1.2, and an extremely high int gain of +3.9 (resulting in the highest base damage excluding tiny), i can only see this hero being used somewhat unconventionally. You'd probably have to get a few strength items or a few soul boosters to avoid being raped. As for dishing out your base damage, an agility of 13 + 1.35 will probably see you hitting the enemy 3-4 times before you die.

With 2 passives and active abilities that cost 170 and 10, i don't see why he needs so much intel gain. Yes i understand you will be burnt 150 mana when a spell is cast, and he will spend mana to negate a spell before it's out, but people will just aim you with their attacks. Tinker for example, uses up to 700 mana or something in his 4 spells. He needs intel gain.

Is there something I'm missing? The synergies and theme are good though.

Strength gain: 1.2 x 24 x 13hp
Base HP: 416hp
Bonus Attribute: 20 x 13hp

= 1050 hp at level 25

Needs fixing.

You forgot Pugna and Nessaj. Anyway, His stat gain isn't much different from Pugna's.

Lemme show ya.
Pugna - The Oblivion
Range: 600 | Move Speed: 315
Primary: INT
Str: 17 + 1.45 | Agi: 13 + 1 | Int: 26 + 4
Damage: 45 – 53 | HP: 416 | Mana: 338
HP Regen: 0.76 | Mana Regen: 1.05
Attack Speed: 1.43 | Armor: 1

Also, if you hadn't noticed, Mindstab is very spammable. 4 second cooldown.
