Infest

Description, attributes and patch history, in one place.

CURRENT GAME DATA

Lifestealer infests the body of a target unit, becoming undetectable, and healing for a portion of his max hitpoints every second while inside. He can then explode from the host body, dealing damage to nearby enemies. If the infested unit is an enemy creep or a neutral creep, he can take control of the unit's ability to move and attack, and the creep loses a portion of their max hitpoints over time. Does not work on enemy heroes. DISPEL TYPE: Basic Dispel

Lore

With this infestation, N'aix consumes the life blood of the host, restoring him back to full unholy power.
