[Twookie]

Kunnka


Ghost Ship now drags enemies within a 200 AoE of it towards the crash site. It now starts from where you are, rather than behind you, lands in the same position it normally would have.
Enemies are still able to perform actions while being pulled by the Ghost Ship.

 

[Volodja]

Oh god, it's actually here.

NEW RUNE

NEW ITEMS

FUCK ME SO GOOD

 

[bounchfx]

[bbd23]

AETHER LENS

The Aether Lens boosts the mana and magic resistance of its bearer, while also granting improved health regeneration. With the lens as a focal point for arcane power, a caster gains increased spell range and damage output.

[misses bull]

THIS IS THE BUFFS NECRO FANS WANT

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Also the neutral creep magic res changes are so dang smart

The only junglers(to my knowledge) that rely on magic damage to kill creeps are Batrider and Dark Seer, so giving magic resist to jungle creeps would only nerf those two's jungling ability. Batrider would need a significant buff to make up for this, Dark Seer already needs a nerf so this would be an okay one.
