Clearly some heroes will be useless with it - ie cent and traxex But who do you think would benefit from having an aganims upgrade?
Here's a quick example of what I mean -
Anti-Mage - my idea here would be to burn mana equal to damage dealt also in AOE. ie// if you did 600 dmg you would burn 600 mana from target, and anyone caught in the AOE - and reduce mana cost of cast.
Bat Rider - decrease CD? to 20 seconds or 15, with extra half second or second on lasso?
Bloodseeker - increase cast range, increase duration to 10 seconds, auto 'ON' for blood lust during the 10 seconds, MAYBE decrease cd slightly, but anything less than 45 seconds would be OP
Bristleback - pointless, can't really justify it, without being op - 1 extra stack longer duration?, but then it's not worth buying an aganims
Chaos Knight - +1 illusion (now 4) decrease cd to 100 seconds
ETC? Anyone have good idea's for the remaining heroes without aganims?
Magnus, Kunkka, Enigma would be good ones..
Cloud also gets a bonus when you get aga - larger aoe, longer time.
Riki: breaking his invis with an attack
should give bonus damage like bounty hunters
also perhaps a permanent speed boost.
As long as his fade time is not decreased, that
would be completely OP.
Also, saw the white hole thoughts from the guy above me, what about a white hole that tp's everyone in the black hole to the target location, if so that enigma can get away or let his team do the killing
Sounds pretty imba.

It wouldn't be. Even late game with high end regen items tinker still burns through his mana in teamfights fast. Having zero mana costs would be like, godlike.
I'd support reducing the mana cost to 100/150/200 or 100/200/300 with Ags. I'd don't see another way to ags buff it, since at level 3 channel time is almost a non issue.
As for Enigma, reducing the CD on BH would be the only good way as I see it. That's the biggest drawback of the ulitmate, especially since if your team relies on it and you don't get a good one, you have wait ****ing 3 minutes to have a good team fight again. Maybe 120 at level 3.
As for PL, my idea is a simple one, increase the chances of illusion procs, since that what he needs to do to be a significant hard carry. Increases Juxtapose to 25%(juxtapose +ulti bonus=25%) and illusion duplication to 12%. And or have it work on structures, but that may be either too good, or not good at all.
Alchemist-reduce CD to 30. Increase bonus HP to 1200 at level 3. Regen 75, mana regen 18.
You could unload your entire Mana pool into
I have two ideas for an alternative to this, however:
1) After using
2)
As for the other heroes, scaling
No opinion on
I can't imagine 0 Mana Rearm being balanced.

More ideas
Rubick: cooldown reduced from 20/18/16 to 10/8/6
Duration of the spell stolen from 3/4/5 minutes (or until death) to infinite (until death)'
Ability to steal allied spells
Ability to steal neutral spells (lol why not)
Manacost from 25 to 0
Tinker: Rearm manacost from 150/250/350 to 0
Tinker's is impossible - the reason why rearm ISN'T OP is the mana cost, tinker burns through his mana in 2 quick skill cycles, removing 700 mana cost, and adding nearly 500+ mana, will let him get through 5 rearms cycles - WAY too OP.
Perhaps a similar upgrade to Ogre Magi, where Tinker gets another skill? or even a stun/disable? (and passive's) like march of the machines doing more damage or faster movespeed of machines -, 3 rockets - laser has longer miss duration etc..
Rubick stealing from allies would be OP - every line up would have rubick and tide together, just double tide ulti's, or something similar,
but infinite, and mana cost is plausible..
Some Agha's don't even upgrade ulti. For instance, Tiny. He just gets a nice pushing buff. Also, Ogre Magi, he just gets an extra single-cast of his stun.
Anyway, here are some ideas:
This is basically small buffs in specific areas. I doubt this would realistically be picked up since his ulti isn't that reliable all the time, but now with a longer stun and a little bigger radius, it puts a little more emphasis on landing the ult.
I agree - buffing like ogre magi (not actually changing ultis) would be excellent. but as mentioned some heroes are difficult to justify - such as
