DotA2 Skill: Release

Release

• Replaces Ice Blast until cast or the tracer disappears.
• Upon cast, the tracer stops travelling and marks the total area hit by the explosion once the icy ball of hail reaches its position.
• It also provides 650 radius flying vision at that position for 4 seconds.
• The icy ball of hail travels at a speed of 750, or reaches the targeted point 2 seconds after launch, whichever is faster.
• The icy ball is only released when Release is cast, or when Ancient Apparition dies while the tracer is still travelling.
• It is not released when the tracer reaches the map boundary. In this case, the spell is wasted.
• Every enemy unit which comes within 275 radius of the icy ball as it travels, or is hit by the explosion gets the Frostbitten debuff.
  • The debuff starts expiring only once outside of range of the icy ball. Getting within range again immediately refreshes the duration.
• The icy ball is fully visible to enemies. But unlike the tracer, it is not visible on the minimap.
• The icy ball provides 500 radius flying vision as it travels, which lasts for 3 seconds.

On-Cast: Does not proc any on-cast effects when cast.
