Damage
Magical

Maverick thanks his Lucky Stars often, and it pays off. Gives him a small chance to instantly kill a creep, or deal 200 bonus damage to a hero or structure. Additionally, Maverick's lucky gambling allows him to profit from most attacks.

Proc Chance: 5%/6%/7%/8%

Non-creep Bonus Damage: 200

Maverick is bestowed with unusual luck, giving him an advantage in combat.

• This is how Lucky Stars bonus gold per attack works:

• Gold granted per Attack Formula: (EventDamage/TargetMaxHP) * SalvageCostRatio * TargetCost (Warcraft III's Pillage Formula)

• Target Cost: How much gold you have to spend to create a unit (Warcraft III Mechanic). Constant.

For Example:

Melee Lane Creeps: 120.

Ranged Lane Creeps: 145.

Siege Creeps: 210.

• Salvage Cost Ratio: 1%/2%/3%/4%.

• EventDamage: Gambler Right-Click Damage.

• TargetMaxHP: Enemy Hero Max Health.

• So if Gambler deals 60 auto-attack damage to a ranged creep that has 300 HP. He gains (60/300) * 0.04 * 145 = 1.16 gold per attack.

• Neutral units Gold Cost constant:
  • Roshan: 545
  • Drakken Camp Units: 150
  • Ancient Golem Camp Units: 180
  • Black Drake: 150, Black Dragon: 200
  • Ogre Bruiser: 130, Ogre Frostmage: 190
  • Hellbear: 165, Hellbear Smaher: 182
