DOTA Madness

The stun duration was less than two seconds, it seemed short in normal times, but at this moment it seemed abnormally long!

After Zhao Dingguo recovered from the stun, he noticed that it was the Vengeful Spirit that ambushed him! After she went from the upper lane to the middle lane, he secretly roamed to the bot lane again!

However, Zhao Dingguo clearly remembered that there was no one nearby!

Is it …

After a moment of hesitation, Zhao Dingguo realized that the other party was probably eating the Invisibility Rune and lurking beside him for a while. That’s why two Scourge heroes would come here, intending to cooperate with the Vengeful Spirit to kill him!

Rune was an enhanced buff condensed by magical energy. It was divided into five types: Double Damage, Haste, Illusion, Invisibility, and Regeneration. Rune appeared in 2 rune spawning locations every two minutes. Because only one appeared at a time, and they were randomly located, Zhao Dingguo usually didn’t pay much attention to it. Ar most, he would consume if he was passing by, but he never actively looking for it. He didn’t expect today he ate a loss due to an Invisibility Rune!

Frost Nova!

With the help of Vengeful Spirit, the Lich and Alleria caught up in time. The former released a skill which slowed down while inflicting damage. And the latter, while doing normal attacks, opened Windrunner and quickly approach him!

Wave of Terror!

The second skill of Vengeful Spirit also followed closely, although the damage was extremely low, it could reduce the armor.

After a round of skills, coupled with normal attacks, Zhao Dingguo’s HP fell below 50%. This was also because he has Ironwood Branches and Circlet of Nobility, plus Power Treads was also changed into Strength, otherwise, it may be even more unbearable!

“Dazzle, come quickly!”

Suddenly encountered ambush, needless to say, Zhao Dingguo was panic. But he was the kind of person who could participate in big competitions: the more critical the situation, the clearer his thought. Although it’s very dangerous at this moment, Zhao Dingguo carefully calculated his HP, opponent’s skills, and position with each other, and did not immediately release his life-saving skills.

“Coming soon! Imprison yourself if you can’t bear!”

Dazzle, who was still in the jungle, realized the danger, and quickly set aside the creeps to come to Zhao Dingguo, and did not forget to remind him.

Astral Imprisonment could temporarily seal a target hero into an astral prison. The hero would be separated from the real world for the duration of the spell. If cast on an enemy, it also stole Intelligence from the target for 60 seconds. Moreover, this ability could be self-cast. As long as the timing was right, it can be used to dodge some skills, and also save teammates at critical moments. It is for this reason that Zhao Dingguo liked this skill!

Although Zhao Dingguo had skills at the moment, he didn’t activate it.

He knew that this skill was his only means of self-saving. If he couldn’t release it at the most appropriate time, then he would likely be dead! Even if the HP dropped rapidly, Zhao Dingguo still told himself to stay calm and wait for the opportunity!

In just a few seconds, his HP fell below a hundred points!

This was an extremely dangerous value!

“Powershot!”

At this time, Alleria finally used her killer move.

This linear skill’s horizontal damage range was not wide, as long as a hero paid attention to the position, he could avoid it, so Alleria didn’t put it first before. Now she was thinking the opportunity has come, so she released this skill to KS!

“Now!”

At the moment when Alleria was pulling the bow, Zhao Dingguo made an instant decision and immediately imprisoned himself! A dark green light soared into the sky, temporarily isolating Zhao Dingguo from the world. Although he could see outside, the enemy heroes lost track of their target. Nothing could harm the imprisoned hero-except for Obsidian Destroyer’s own ultimate!

The game mode didn’t allow duplicate pick, so of course, this would not happen!

Alleria did not expect Zhao Dingguo to imprison himself, and it’s too late to cancel her skill. The powerful arrow whistled, flew past the prison, hurting only a new wave of treant soldiers.

“F*ck!”

Lich, who also had the idea of KS, spit out a word and had to guard it near the prison.

Astral Imprisonment level 1 only lasted one second, and then increased by one second per level. Fortunately, Zhao Dingguo’s skill upgrade method in this field was to learn Arcane Orb first, and then the second and third skills were added in turn. In this way, at the sixth level, he had the Astral Imprisonment level 2. Two seconds were long, but it just happened to be enough for Dazzle to arrive!

When Zhao Dingguo came out from the astral prison, Dazzle also gave him a Shallow Grave at the max casting range.

At this moment, strange energy enveloped Zhao Dingguo, and a countdown appeared on his head at the same time. This number indicated the end time of the skill, but only allied units could see it.

At this moment, Zhao Dingguo was full of confidence.

For five seconds, he was immortal.

Lich apparently hadn’t noticed this yet. Seeing Zhao Dingguo’s HP, he immediately threw out Frost Nova which had just cooled down. Zhao Dingguo’s HP drooped to the bottom as he wished, but the killing reward expected by the Lich did not come … The special effect of Shallow Grave forced Zhao Dingguo to retain 1 HP, regardless of the damage!

“What?”

The chasing Alleria noticed the existence of Dazzle and immediately realized that it was the effect of Shallow Grave. Seeing that the other party used this time to retreat to the tower, she knew they have missed the best chance to kill!

After the duration of Shallow Grave was over, Dazzle decisively cast a Shadow Wave on Zhao Dingguo, and gradually restored his HP.

If the mana of Vengeful Spirit was enough to release another Magic Missile, or if the Lich’s level was higher by one and had the ultimate, Alleria may dare to dive the tower. But Vengeful Spirit had released a round of skills once in the middle, and now it’s clear that her mana was not enough. Without her CC skill, diving the tower was estimated to be a bit dangerous.

She knew that Zhao Dingguo’s ultimate hadn’t been released yet!

Although she and Lich were both Intelligence heroes, there was not much difference in Intelligence in the early stage, thus the damage caused by Sanity’s Eclipse was limited. But there was a Dazzle nearby, even if they killed Obsidian Destroyer in the end, they would likely be killed too!

The most important thing was that here was the tower of the other party, they could arrive by TP at any time!

In this case, giving up is a wise choice!

Seeing the Scourge heroes retreating, Dazzle and Zhao Dingguo were relieved. This gank was secret, full of threats, and almost succeeded!

“Why didn’t you immediately TP? You obviously have one scroll!”

Dazzle asked. If he was late for even half a second, Zhao Dingguo would be dead!

Zhao Dingguo also took a breath and said, “Alleria still keep her Shackleshot. If I dare to stand in place, she only needs to wait for a second or two before interrupting me, then I’m really dead!”

Shackleshot was the only control skill of Alleria the Windrunner, but it had strict requirements on the environment around the target. If there was only one target, Shackleshot could only stun for 0.75 seconds, which was only useful at interrupting channelings. But if there were other units or trees on the straight line after the target, she could shackle them together and stun them for up to four seconds!

That was very impressive!

However, just now Zhao Dingguo deliberately paid attention to his position and did not give Alleria any chance to shackle him to another unit or tree. Therefore, Alleria also kept the skill and did not let go.

“So it is the case!”

Dazzle has understood, and he could not help looking at Zhao Dingguo’s calmness and wisdom.

In the situation of life and death just now, not many people could calmly consider these details. This also made him a little more confident in this late carry.
