Sharaka is a strong duelist who prefers to soften her opposition with very efficient skirmishes before executing them with swift brutality.

Type: support

Elphimas is a squishy support that balances a total inability to deal damage and low base defenses with potentially permanent stealth, high mobility and a set of skills that confuse enemies and support allies, resulting especially aggravating to heroes relying on stealth and deployed items. Having no damage contribution, it's important to pair them with a hero with high damage output. Elphimas benefits best from an increased magical power, cooldown reduction and enhanced movement speed.

Gregarious Heart (Passive)
Elphimas' basic attacks deals no damage, but grant vision of the target for 3 seconds. Whenever an allied hero gains gold from killing a unit, Elphimas gains the same amount of gold if that hero has been affected by one of Elphimas' abilities or Elphimas has his that unit with a basic attack in the last 5 seconds.

Veil (Q)
Passive: Elphimas' basic attack passively grants true vision (ignores stealth) of the target for 3 seconds, and increase the damage the target receives from allies by a percentage proportional to Elphimas' magical power. Elphimas becomes invisible to enemies after (10 to 6) seconds of not using their basic attack; enemy heroes in Elphimas' immediate vicinity and items that grant vision can trace their movement.
Active: Elphimas stealths target ally for (1.5 to 3) seconds and creates a controllable illusionary double of that hero; projectiles from targeted attacks and abilities en route to the target are rerouted to the illusion. The stealth ends prematurely if the target hero attacks or uses a damaging ability, and the illusory double disappears if damaged by a hero.
If the double is affected by Magic into Illusion, the cooldown of both abilities is increased by 20 seconds and the illusory double is upgraded: it gains the same health and resistances of the original hero in addition to the Magic into Illusion shield, and doesn't expire before the duration ends unless brought to 0 health; if the stealthed hero would break their stealth performing an action compatible with the double's position (attacking an enemy within the double's attack range, for example), the stealth isn't broken and the upgraded double goes through the same animations (casting or attacking) the hero is going through.
Cooldown: 12 seconds

Planar Phasing (W)
Passive: The enemies hit by Elphimas' basic attacks grant vision on a small area around them for 3 seconds.
Active: Elphimas starts channeling, and a gradually increasing radius (its speed is proportional to Elphimas' movement speed) appears on their player's map. Activating this ability again makes Elphimas and the allied heroes in their immediate vicinity blink to the target visible location. This ability's cooldown is increased proportionally to the traveled distance.
Base cooldown: 6 seconds.

Magic into Illusion (E)
Passive: Illusory doubles targeted by Elphimas' basic attacks are dispelled.
Active: Elphimas targets an allied hero or an item deployed by a hero. If the target is a hero, they receive a shield that protects them from a certain amount of magical damage; as long as a portion of the shield remains of the target, that hero is immune to incoming crowd control. If the target has been deployed by another hero, it permanently loses all properties, included its damage collision: "artificial" terrain can be traveled through as it wasn't there.
Cooldown: 20 seconds

Vision Omnifold (R)
Passive: Every item deployed by a hero targeted by Elphimas' autoattack in the last 3 seconds remains indefinitely visible on the map even if stealthed and outside ordinary vision.
Active: For (8 to 12) seconds the whole map is visible regardless of stealth and hidden areas (like bushes in LoL), all hidden items are revealed and illusions are dispelled. items revealed this way remain visible after this duration even if stealthed or outside ordinary vision. All allies are considered affected by this skill for the sake of Gregarious Heart.
Cooldown: 90 seconds.
