Morphling

Notes:

• Surges with a speed of 1250 and disjoints projectiles upon cast.

• Morphling is invulnerable, and his model cannot be directly selected with during Waveform.
  • However, Morphling can be still be selected through the hero icon.

• With the travel distance and radius, Waveform can hit units up to 900/1000/1100/1200 ( 1150/1250/1350/1450) distance away.

• Morphling can turn, attack, cast abilities, and use items during Waveform.

• Does not travel the full distance, when targeting closer than the max distance.

• With the level 20 talent, Morphling performs instant attacks on every enemy hit by Waveform.
  • These instant attacks can proc any attack modifiers and on-hit effects normally. They do not have True Strike, but completely ignore disarms.

Notes:

• Adaptive Strike (Strength) and Adaptive Strike (Agility) are linked abilities; leveling up one automatically levels up the other as well.

• Casting this puts the other Adaptive Strike (Agility) on a fixed 3 second cooldown.
  • This cooldown can be reset with cooldown resetting abilities, but it is not affected by percentage-based cooldown changes.

• The projectile travels at a speed of 1150.

• Knocks the target back at a speed of 1000, resulting in a knockback duration of 0.1‒0.5 seconds.

• Checks Morphling’s attributes upon projectile impact.

• With Aghanim’s Shard, Adaptive Strike launches 1 additional projectile towards random visible valid targets within the range.
  • With the cast range and the range buffer, the ability has a search range of 900/1000/1100/1200.
  • Cannot target the primary target with the additional projectile, so when no other targets are nearby, nothing happens.
  • The secondary target is chosen randomly within the area, with heroes being prioritized. Treats creep-heroes as heroes.
  • Since the additional projectile uses the ability’s cast range, cast range increasing effects increase its range as well.

Notes:

• Attribute Shift does not interrupt Morphling’s channeling abilities upon toggling.

• Costs 3.33/1.66/0.83/0.416 mana per shift interval, resulting in 10 mana per second.
  • This mana cost is fixed and cannot be altered by anything. It ignores mana loss manipulation.

• Converts 3/6.02/12.05/24.04 attribute points per second, resulting in the following changes per second:

• Attribute Shift continues to convert attributes even if Morphling is disabled, but cannot be toggled while disabled.
  • With the level 25 talent, this restriction is removed, allowing Morphling to toggle Attribute Shift even while disabled.
    • With the talent, it can be toggled while stunned, cycloned, slept, taunted, hidden, or during forced movement, but not while silenced, hexed or prevented from acting.
    • Morphling becomes unable to ⇧ Shift-queue this ability upon acquiring the talent.

• Toggling one Attribute Shift ability On automatically toggles the other Off.
  • If Attribute Shift cannot convert anymore due to lack of attribute points or mana, it stays toggled, but the process is paused until it can continue.

• Can only convert Morphling’s base agility and strength. Bonus attributes cannot be converted.
  • The passively added strength and agility are not added to the base attributes, and can therefore not be converted either.

• Shifted attributes are permanent and not reverted on death.

• The passive agility bonus effectively grants Morphling 0.5/0.83/1.17/1.5 armor, and 3/5/7/9 attack speed and attack damage.

• The passive strength bonus effectively grants Morphling 60/100/140/180 health and 0.3/0.5/0.7/0.9 health regen.

Notes:

• Does not replace Morphling with a clone of the target. Morph only copies the target’s model (including the cosmetic items they wear).

• Morphling keeps his current health and mana percentages upon morphing. He does not copy the target’s current health or mana.

• Also copies the target’s attribute values, primary attribute, movement speed, attack range and range type.
  • This means when targeting a melee strength hero, Morphling becomes a melee strength hero for the duration.
  • Only copies the target’s base attributes. Bonus attributes from abilities and items are not copied.
  • All other base stats (e.g. attack values, armor, magic resistance, etc) are not copied either.

• Removes Morphling’s abilities and replaces them with the target’s non-ultimate abilities, including their passive abilities and sub-abilities.

• Morphling keeps his own items during Morph, he does not copy the target’s items.

• Can only be cast on enemy heroes, including illusions and clones. Cannot be cast on creep-heroes.

• Multiple sources of mana loss reduction stacks additively.

• With Aghanim’s Scepter, Morph can also target allied heroes, with the same rules as above.

Notes:

• Morph Replicate replaces Morph until it expires.
  • The legacy Hotkey for Morph Replicate is also the legacy key of the target’s ultimate ability.

• Morph Replicate interrupts Morphling’s channeling abilities upon cast.

• Casting this does not end Morph. Instead, it shifts Morphling back to his original form. When used again, it shifts Morphling back into the target.
  • Goes on cooldown whenever forms get shifted.

• Whenever Morphling shifts back into the target, he re-copies all their abilities.
  • This means if the target leveled up their abilities, Morphling now copies the new level as well.
  • This also means if the target learned or acquired new abilities (e.g. Invoker invoked new abilities), Morphling copies the new abilities.
