Abilities

• Frogstomp: Largo tosses froglings to an area. They stomp the ground every 1 second, dealing damage and ministuns, and enemies in the area have reduced movement speed.
• Croak of Genius: Largo strums a tune to a friendly hero. The hero's items and abilities have reduced mana cost and a percentage of their damage reverberates over the following 5 seconds. When an affected hero spends mana, the remaining buff duration is reduced by 0.5s. Duration is not reduced for Largo himself.
• Encore: Buffs that Largo applies to himself or his team have extended duration.
• Amphibian Rhapsody: Largo gets ready to groove. He is disarmed and his ability bar switches to 3 song abilities, each with different effects. Songs are only effective if strummed on the beat. Every time he strums successfully, he gains a stack of Groovin'. Each stack gives him bonus armor and reduces the mana cost of every song, but he loses a stack if he misses a beat. Stacks linger for a short duration when Largo's song ends.
• Bullbelly Blitz: Largo plays a song that deals 20 magical damage to nearby enemies. The song also increases nearby allied heroes' spell amplification and grants their attacks additional magic damage.
• Hotfeet Hustle: Largo plays a song that increases nearby friendly units' movement speed and grants a brief slow resistance.
• Island Elixir: Largo plays a song that heals nearby friendly heroes.

Lore

The exiled Murkroots of Velu’Mar discovered a living island so ancient it speaks only in song. Raised among the shamanic bards who learned to commune with it, Largo now roams the realms with a troupe of frogling disciples, looking for inspiration for new melodies to bring back and share with his island home.
