Neither myth nor song exist to tell of their coming.
Deep below the surface of the world lay unknown wonders and horrors. Down and down again, well beneath the slithering magma fields and simmering roots of dormant volcanoes stands the obsidian city of Aziyog, its incomparable stonework spanning an endless cavern. Within honeycomb walls mortared with the bones of countless slaves lies the domain of the Abyssal Horde, and their brutal underlord Vrogros.
Armed by the monstrous forgemasters of his kind and well-practiced in the arts of the Dark Rift, Vrogros is able to conjure forth flame and crippling malice through the twist between worlds. He seeks always to expand his holdings, destroying or enslaving all he encounters. Yet the lands offered by the subterranean realm are few, and so his sights have turned upward. By his command the first waves of abyssal invaders have already marched through the rift, a few doomed legions meant merely to test the might of nations above. Now, as his full force readies itself for unending conquest, Vrogros himself steps into a sunlit world to announce his coming reign. Those who face the Underlord will bow and pay tribute, or be crushed where they stand.

90% of Dota heroes are straight up stolen from various series or myths. Zeus, Lina are two easy examples.

Dark Rift can basically be used like a mass Wisp-Relocate since no channeling right? Just needs a unit and a Blink Dagger?
|
Yes, no channeling. There is just a delay.

Played against one, he was dumb and went bad battlefury build, cause underlord is not a carry, but his ult is a pretty hard to deal with escape outside of glimpse/x. IF you can't burst him, he will teleport away.

Eul works against it as well.

Didn't think of that, so eul, imprison will work, gotcha.

Not everything good is flashy, not everything flashy is good. Sometimes boring but strong is fine. Think of it like magic missile, nothing flashy, but it's a strong solid ability.
Get the aura, have fun being offlane in dual aggro lane.

The build is obviously HotD into running around with a creep in the enemy jungle into 5man surprise ganks!
That said, combining him with a HotD builder or Beastmaster seems honestly powerful in an organized team.
I also expect to see some glorious ult fails because it doesnt destroy trees like relocate does. You can trap your whole team in a group of trees if you Rift onto a hawk at the wrong moment.

That's because vs didn't had a cooler spell prior to magic missile. The dislike stems from a boring spell replacing something sweet.
I remember expulsion used to heal you and ministun too :\

You can't relocate on controlled units....

You can. They added that, along with the firestorm DPS change and pit of malice not revealing invis units.

Ye I tested it, works on both HotD units and BM Hawk. The possibilities...
And yea, I did simulate the tree trapping too

I think I found my new favorite offlaner, build like undying, build like tank and team fight and profit.
I didn't even have to use my ult for anything special this game outside one or two get out of jail free card. No rat needed.

Yeah this hero is ridiculous. Lots of fun to play as a tanky offlaner/fighter. I played him tonight with WD as a duo off and the kill potential was just gross. Same game we had a riki - rifting riki makes lifestealer bombs look like a gentle caress.
It's also nice to have a new hero that doesn't require a PhD in dota to play well. Oracle, wyvern, arc warden are all a lot harder to use effectively. This guy you just have to exist and throw your skills that are the opposite of skill shots. The ult is icing on the cake.
4-4-1 definitely seems like the build. I like aura at 1 to make it easy to trade hits and get CS - you're at 85 damage and the enemy is at 50 after the first wave.
