Modifiers

modifier_kill: Dispellable with death only.

Notes:

• Requires at least one corpse within 600 radius to be cast.

• The skeletons are always spawned next to the Dark Troll Summoner.

• As a neutral unit:
  • When the troll is aggroed and at least one unit had died within 600 radius, it casts the spell.
  • This means that the troll does not need a corpse to cast it. When a unit died once within 600 radius, it always casts it when aggroed.

• As a player controlled unit:
  • Can only be cast when a corpse is within 600 radius.
  • A unit's corpse usually lasts for 6–7 seconds after the death animation.
  • Every unit leaves a corpse, even when it is not visible (e.g. illusions).

• Has a cast backswing of 0.6 when cast by Doom (acquired through Devour).

• Has a cast backswing of 1.07 when cast by Rubick (acquired through casting Spell Steal on Doom).
