Dazzle, the Shadow Priest, is a ranged intelligence hero who conjures dazzling dark light to heal his allies and prevent their deaths. His Shadow Wave is a low-cooldown nuke and chain healing ability, dealing more damage to nearby enemies for each ally the wave heals. Shallow Grave makes an ally temporarily unkillable, allowing Dazzle's teammates to survive impossible situations. Poison Touch is a spammable ability that slows its target and deals damage over time. His ultimate, Bad Juju, allows for all of his spells and items to be used more frequently, while also causing his spells to temporarily reduce his enemies' armor.
A hard support with little item dependence, Dazzle's Shadow Wave nevertheless gives him the option to farm or push waves when he needs to. He also scales well into the late game, as unlike most supports his spells deal physical damage, and all of them but Poison Touch pierces spell immunity. Loyal priest of the shining shadows, Dazzle will save you time and time again.
Bio
Abilities
- Poison Touch's projectiles travel at a speed of 1300.
- Can hit units up to 1000 range away (starting radius + distance + end radius).
- The complete area is shaped like a cone in front of Dazzle.
- The area starts in front of Dazzle, and not at the primary target's position.
- Targets within the cone area are not chosen randomly. It chooses the closest valid targets to the primary target within the cone.
- Deals damage in 1 second intervals, starting 1 second after the debuff is placed, resulting in 4/5/6/7 damage instances.
- Can deal up to 64/140/240/364 ( 304/440/600/784) damage to each target when not refreshed (before reductions).
- The duration gets refreshed whenever a player or Roshan lands an attack on the debuffed unit. This means it does not get refreshed on missed attacks.
- Multiple instances of Poison Touch fully stack.
- Bad Juju effectively reduces cooldown to:
- Level 1: 26.955/23.96/20.965/17.97
- Level 2: Lua error in Module:Calculate at line 35: in expression "27*(1-(/100))".
- Level 3: Lua error in Module:Calculate at line 35: in expression "27*(1-(/100))".
Target Unit
Allied Heroes
- Prevents the target from dying by setting its minimum health to 1.
- This means the target cannot die to damage, not even damage flagged as HP removal, so that it prevents the target from dying to False Promise's delayed damage.
- Does not protect the target against a lethal Culling Blade, or the expiring of Wraith Delay.
- Stops Ice Blast from shattering the target when graved while below the shatter threshold.
- Damage taken is technically not reduced, so any damage event still registers the full damage.
- Can be cast on illusions and creep-heroes.
- ↓↓ Double-tapping automatically targets self.
- Bad Juju effectively reduces cooldown to:
- Level 1: 41.93/33.943333333333/25.956666666667/17.97
- Level 2: Lua error in Module:Calculate at line 35: in expression "42*(1-(/100))".
- Level 3: Lua error in Module:Calculate at line 35: in expression "42*(1-(/100))".
- Shadow Wave has no bounce delay, so all targets are healed at the same time.
- Priority order: Hurt allied heroes > hurt allied non-hero units (includes illusions) > allied heroes > non-hero units.
- The lower the health of nearby allies, the higher their priority gets. This means the lowest health units get healed first.
- If multiple units hit the exact same criteria (e.g. only full health non-hero units are nearby), it chooses between them randomly.
- Regardless of the target, Dazzle is always healed without counting towards the number of bounces, effectively healing 4/5/6/7 units.
- ↓↓ Double-tapping automatically targets self.
- The damage radius is centered around each healed unit. An enemy unit can get damaged by all healed units per cast.
- Can deal up to 320/500/720/980 ( 640/900/1200/1540) damage to a single unit (before reductions).
- With Aghanim's Scepter, applies a basic dispel on all hit allies.
- Bad Juju effectively reduces cooldown to:
- Level 1: 13.976666666667/11.98/9.9833333333333/7.9866666666667
- Level 2: Lua error in Module:Calculate at line 35: in expression "14*(1-(/100))".
- Level 3: Lua error in Module:Calculate at line 35: in expression "14*(1-(/100))".
- Stacks multiplicatively with other sources cooldown reduction.
- Reduces armor of enemies before the triggering spell resolves.
- Affects invisible units and units in the fog of war. Does not affect invulnerable or hidden enemies.
- Does not affect Roshan.
- Does not trigger on active item abilities, on spells with 0 cooldown, or on spells which do not trigger on-cast effects.
- Places one debuff on enemies. This debuff gets stronger when it gets refreshed with successive casts.
- A number on the icon shows how many times the debuff was refreshed, including the first cast.
- With Aghanim's Shard, causes Dazzle to perform instant attacks on 3 enemies within 1200 radius around him whenever he casts an ability (compatible with Ability Draft).
- Does not target wards, buildings, invisible units, or units inside the fog of war, but does target attack immune units, and couriers.
- Chooses the closest targets to Dazzle, prioritizing heroes. Treats creep-heroes as heroes.
- These instant attacks can proc any attack modifiers and on-hit effects normally.
- If Dazzle is blinded, the instant attacks can miss, unless he has True Strike. The instant attacks can also miss to evasion.

Gameplay
A journey to the Nothl realm changes all its visitors, not least of which Dazzle, a young acolyte of the Dezun order. Consecrated as a Shadow Priest, Dazzle sends outs Shadow Waves to mend and maim. Foes are crippled by his Poison Touch, while allies are blessed with Shallow Grave, cheating death no matter how severe their injuries. Enemies within earshot of his incantations feel their bodies weaken, for those who cross Dazzle are invariably afflicted with an eternity of Bad Juju. | |

Trivia
- Dazzle's weapon is based on the khakkhara, a type of staff carried by Buddhist priests.
- The current version of Dazzle was created in 6.39 (upon release, Weave was a regular ability while Shallow Grave was his ultimate), but there was another version of Dazzle, which was released in 6.00. However, this old version of the Shadow Priest only lasted for 3 version, as he was removed in 6.03. He was considered a "filler hero".
- Upon his release in 6.00, his name was Razzle, the Shadow Priest. His Title, Shadow Priest, and his abilities Shadow Word and Power Word are most likely a reference to the Priest, a playable class from World of Warcraft, a title from Blizzard Entertainment. The Priest class is able to assume a Shadow Form, turning it into a Shadow Priest and has several abilities named Shadow Word and Power Word, from which some have a similar effect to Razzle's spells.
