Throw out cluster bombs
Throw a cluster of bombs that detonate after a delay, dealing spirit damage. Enemies hit by multiple bombs take 65% damage.
Dash forward and slash enemies
Dash forward before slashing all enemies in a circle, dealing melee damage. If the ability hits at least one hero, heal a small amount of health.
Take control of Ava
Turn to shadows and possess Ava. You gain bonus move speed that increases over time, and become hidden on the minimap. Taking damage from an enemy hero resets your bonus move speed and puts Ava on a brief cooldown.
Turn to Shadows, gaining movespeed and dealing delayed damage
Instantly turn to shadows, becoming untargetable, gaining bonus move speed, and dealing spirit damage. After a delay, return from the shadows, dealing spirit damage again.
Names, descriptions, values and upgrades are the game’s own text and numbers at level 1, before items and spirit scaling. Some descriptions show the damage type without the number, as in game; the value is in the table under each ability. Data
