Ultra mobility:

Blink (QoP)
Teleportation
Illusory Orb
Ball Lightning


Actually, Ball lightning with essence aura might be nice...
Wait... Does Ball Lightning work with Aftershock?

Blink
Overpower
Take Aim
Impetus

on a Sniper (good attack animation).

For a real game though, my three favorite games of Ability Draft were:

1. http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/811634249
I was Razor. Story of that game: Static Link + Curse of Avernus is insane. To top it off, I had Shadow Dance and Gravekeeper's Cloak.

2. http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/751059014
I was Mirana. Overpower + Elder Dragon Form makes tower pushing a joke. Really. Natural Order + Craggy Exterior mostly for trolling :P

3. http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/793942384
I was Chaos Knight. Incapacitating Bite is an awesome skill that's wasted on Broodmother. Oh, and there were at least three instances in that game where I forgot I had Time Lapse on, and died. Apart from that, I felt pretty invincible.

1. Teleportation
2. essence aura
3. Nature's Call
4. Rearm

It's like a regular Nature's Profit, but much much worse.
There's no earthy way of knowing which direction we are going. There's no knowing where we're rowing, or which way the river's flowing. Is it raining, is it snowing? Is a hurricane a-blowing? Not a speck of light is showing, so the danger must be growing. Are the fires of Hell a-glowing? Is the grisly Reaper mowing?! YES! The danger must be growing! For the rowers keep on rowing! And there's certainly not showing ANY SIGNS THAT THEY ARE SLOWING!

Hit that Rep button, you know you want to.

I had a really fun one recently. I was a Nature's Prophet.

Teleportation
Thunder Clap
Liquid Fire
Omnislash

Not perfect or anything but the combo of tele and omni was just ridiculous. Plus farming the agh was easy.

I also faced some annoying ones recently. Glaives of Wisdom on a tidehunter.... he was hitting very hard and at range.

I just remembered something else I saw recently

Arcane Orb
Overcharge
Essence Aura
Ball Lightening

that combo is actually insane, you basically just build huge int items such as sheep stick etc. because you deal so much damage.

Your effectively dashing around the map with infinite mana 2 shotting anyone and anything

And the best bit is when you get all this on Pugna....dat int gain though
Do as I say, not what I do

I believe they do. Search youtube for 'they see me drafting' by dopatwo.

I think Ball Lightning + essence aura does works, I used to have a favorite draft like this:

Essence aura
Mana Shield
Overload
Ball Lightning

I almost literallly cannot die and hits like a *****

Summon Spirit Bear
Rot
Voodoo Restoration
Infest
So how does this work you might think. Well i'll tell you.
1. Summon Misha
2. Activate Rot and Voodoo Restoration
3. Infest Misha.
4. Now you just start hitting people till they die.
Not sure if it works anymore. But it was based on the fact that you didn't lose mana when you were insaid Misha.
