Aghanim's Shard Upgrade:

Axe is the only reinforcement this army needs.

• This ability was reworked at 7.33.

• Can only proc when an enemy unit lands an attack on Axe, regardless of distance. This means it cannot proc on missed attacks.

• Can proc on the secondary attacks from other instant attacks.
  • Except from the following instant attacks that cannot proc attack modifiers: Split Shot (without the Split Shot uses modifiers talent) and Flak Cannon.
  • Cannot proc on attacks from buildings, wards and allies.
  • Cannot proc on spell damage.

• Counter Helix procs do not use a regular cooldown. It is neither displayed on the ability icon when proccing nor is it affected by cooldown manipulating effects.

• Despite the visual effects, the damage is applied instantly within the radius.

• Counter Helix uses pseudo-random distribution.

• Fully affect Couriers.

• SHARD
  Counter Helix now places a debuff that refreshes on successive procs on enemies within its radius.
  • Successive procs also refresh the entire stack's duration.
  • The debuff can stack up to times. A number on the icon shows the current number of stacks.

• Applies a unique outgoing damage reduction debuff on affected enemies that reduces attack damage.
  • Only affects the target's attack damage against Axe. Neither reduces any other damage types nor attack damage against other targets.
  • Can reduce an enemy's attack damage by 15%/30%/45%/60%/75%/90% with each amount of stacks.

• The proc chance increase is only updated upon Axe's death.
