Faceless Void

Overview

Darkterror the Faceless Void is a melee agility hard carry hero. He is heavily reliable on items and gold, but becomes extremely powerful in later stages of the match. His team has to provide him space to farm his items, but even in the early game Void's ultimate ability is a great set-up for any team fight.

Faceless Void is a perfect team fight initiator. His active ability "Time Walk" is not only an escape mechanism, but a great way to jump on unsuspecting enemies. "Chronosphere", his ultimate ability, is an ideal lock-down mechanism for groups of enemies and enemy towers, which goes through magic immunity, giving Darkterror a window of opportunity to destroy his enemies. His passive skills make him extremely durable hero and scale well into the later stages of the match.

Background Story

Darkterror the Faceless Void is merely a visitor from Claszureme, his home-realm outside of time. The purpose of his journey into our world is mystified, and we can only assume that only his avaricious habits made him leave his universe. Presumably Nemesis Stones are scarce in another dimension, which made Darkterror condescend upon our lands to weigh in on the fight. Time means nothing to Darkterror, except as a way to thwart his foes and aid his allies. His long-view of the cosmos has given him a remote, disconnected quality, although in battle he is quite capable of making it personal.

Abilities

Time Walk is Faceless Void's first active ability that requires target pointing, which provides built-in escape mechanism for the hero. Darkterror launches through hole in time while slowing attack speed and movement of all enemies in his path for couple of seconds.

Backtrack is Faceless Void's second passive ability allows to dodge incoming magical and physical damage by traveling back in time. This ability can only avoid damage. Other effects of spells (e.g. Stun, Slow, Mana Leak etc.) will not be dodged.

Time Lock is Faceless Void's third passive ability affects enemies and inflicts magical damage. When luck is on Darkterror's side he has a chance to lock his enemy in time, stunning and dealing extra damage.

Chronosphere is Faceless Void's active ultimate ability affects all units in range and requires target pointing. Darkterror opens a rift to Claszureme, trapping all heroes under the cupola for a short period of time. Only Faceless void has the privilege to unleash his wrath. Aghanim's Scepter upgrade significantly decreases the cooldown of his ultimate ability.
