Hex

Hex (sometimes been referred as Sheep) is a type of status effect that transforms the affected unit into a critter. While hexed, a unit's base movement speed is reduced to 100 and it is unable to perform actions that Heroes can, such as use, pick up, or drop items and cast spells. Also, hexed units cannot gain any experience.

It mutes all abilities on heroes except the following:
 * Skeleton King's Reincarnation
 * Item Ability based abilities like Marksmanship, Spell Shield
 * Triggered abilities like Counter Helix, Dispersion, Backtrack, Craggy Exterior
 * Dragon Knight's Dragon Blood is also not affected as it's bonuses granted by Upgrades

Auras have a fade time and thus are disabled after 2-4 seconds.

Hex also disables True Sight from Gem, Burn damage from Radiance, Evasion, and Damage Block (as they are based on unit abilities).

Certain abilities (most notably Lycanthrope's Shapeshift) will grant maximum movement speed even while hexed.

Hex will not affect unit's magic resistance or armor. Hex have no dispelling properties, so it will not dispel any Buffs.
