Narud

By:
Last Updated:

Background: A rogue Xel'Naga in service to Amon, Narud manipulated the conflict between the terran, protoss, and zerg in order to bring about his master's return and the creation of the hybrid. Narud took many guises and roles throughout the conflict, a Confederate Resistance Leader and a head of a terran research group to name a few, all these roles were used to manipulate events to bring about Amon's return.

Health: 1410 (+4%/level)
Attack Damage: 96 (+4%/level)
Attack Speed: 0.9
Attack Range: 4.5

Design Philosophy: A hero that specializes in psychological warfare, Narud can take on the form of his allies and trick them into focusing the wrong hero only to find that they have made a mistake while the friendly team punishes them for their mistake. Much like Medivh, Narud's strength and weakness is the teamwork of his allies. If left to his own devices, Narud's deception may become his downfall.

Combat Trait

Shapeshift

Cooldown: 20 seconds

Target an allied hero to turn yourself into an accurate copy of them for 15 seconds and gain 30 armor while active. Narud also copies the target's basic attack properties (speed, range and damage). Using an ability or taking damage from an enemy hero will break the illusion and return you to your original form and losing all benefits gained.

Primary Abilities

Psionic Shove

Ability Key: Q
Cooldown: 6 seconds

Sends a wave of force at a target direction that collides with the first hero hit, knocks them back and stuns them for 0.5 seconds. Deals 138 (+4%/level) damage. Non-heroic enemies take 100% more damage.

Translocation

Ability Key: W
Cooldown: 14 seconds

Switches places with a target hero after a 1 second delay. Increases the cooldown by 4 seconds if used on an enemy.

Impair

Ability Key: E
Cooldown: 11 seconds

Fires corrupting biomass in a target direction that latches onto the first enemy hero or defensive structure that it hits. The biomass reduces an enemy hero's damage by 40% for 3 seconds or causes defensive structures to reduce their attack speed by 50% for 3 seconds.

Secondary Abilities

Void Lance

Activate to reduce the width of Psionic Shove by 75% and removes the knockback and stun but increases damage by 100%.

Heroic Abilities

Void Aspect

Ability Key: R
Cooldown: 105 seconds

Summons a void shade that follows Narud and attacks nearby enemies with Psionic Bolts for 10 seconds. Each bolt deals 100 (+4%)/level damage and reduces armor by 5 with each hit. The shade focuses its attacks on the lowest health target (prioritizing heroes). If used while shapeshift is active, Narud gains 30% increased movement speed for 4 seconds.

Upgrade: Null Bolts

Enemies hit are also slowed by 30% for 1 second. Hero takedowns extend the duration by 1.5 seconds.

Void Latch

Ability Key: R
Cooldown: 110 seconds

Unleashes multiple void tendrils that roots enemy heroes in a large area area around Narud for 2 seconds. If used while shapeshift is active, the cooldown is reduced by 40 seconds.
