Current abilities
Time WalkRushes to a target location while backtracking any damage taken the last 2 seconds.
Time DilationFaceless Void envelops nearby enemies with time dilating fields to slow cooldown progression of their abilities. Each enveloped enemy gains one Time Dilation stack when applied, and one stack per ability they have on cooldown. Each stack deals damage per second and slows movement and attack speed. The duration is paused while affected by Chronosphere.
Time LockAdds the chance for an attack to lock an enemy unit in time while attacking it a second time.
Reverse Time WalkAvailable for 1.5 seconds after landing Time Walk. If used in this period, you will reverse your time walk back to your previous cast location. Does not affect health or proc scepter hits.- DFDistortion Field innateEnemy Attack Projectiles targetting Faceless Void or allied heroes within a 1200 radius of him get slowed by 40%, when they get within 500 distance of their target.
ChronosphereCreates a blister in spacetime, trapping all units caught in its sphere of influence and causes you to move very quickly inside it. Only Faceless Void and any units he controls are unaffected. Invisible enemies in the sphere will be revealed.
