Abilities

• Plasma Field: Releases a wave of energetic plasma that grows in power as it expands, but also zaps on contraction, slowing and dealing damage to enemy units caught in its path. Damage and slow increases with distance from Razor. The Plasma Field hits each unit twice, once each direction.
• Static Link: Creates a charged link between Razor and an enemy Hero, stealing damage from the target and giving it to Razor. Allows Razor to attack while moving with the link active.
• Storm Surge: There's a chance when attacked, and always when targeted with a spell, to release a forked lightning that strikes the target and other nearby enemies, prioritizing the unit type of the attacker, dealing damage and slowing movement speed.
• Unstable Current:
• Eye of the Storm: A powerful lightning storm strikes out at the enemy unit with the lowest health, dealing damage and reducing armor.

Lore

Among the emblematic powers that populate the Underscape, Razor the Lightning Revenant is one of the most feared. With his whip of lightning, he patrols the Narrow Maze, that treacherous webwork of passages by which the souls of the dead are sorted according to their own innate intelligence, cunning and persistence. Drifting above the Maze, Razor looks down on the baffled souls below, and delivers jolts of scalding electricity that both punish and quicken the souls as they decide their own fates, hurrying on toward luminous exits or endlessly dark pits. Razor is the eternal embodiment of a dominating power, abstract and almost clinical in his application of power. Yet he has a lordly air that suggests he takes a sardonic satisfaction in his work.
