Due to Invoker's uniqueness, his abilities are implemented differently in 
Ability Draft.
Quas Wex Exort[]
To compensate the lack of actual talents, Invoker gains the stats of Quas, Wex, and Exort as passive buffs.

Abilities[]
Three abilities are chosen randomly for each match of Ability Draft. Invoker does not add abilities to the Ultimates pool.
Invoker draws the heat from an enemy, chilling them to their very core for a duration. The enemy will take damage and be briefly frozen. Further damage taken in this state will freeze the enemy again, dealing bonus damage. The enemy can only be frozen so often, but the freeze cooldown decreases as the level goes up.

Sadron's Protracted Frisson.
- Cold Snap immediately triggers on the target upon cast, so the next proc can only happen after the trigger cooldown.
- Every time the effect triggers, the target is stunned and damaged.
- On each trigger, Cold Snap first applies the damage, then the stun debuff.
- Only triggers on damage equal to or greater than 10 (after reductions).
- Cold Snap does not trigger on self-inflicted damage, and on damage flagged as HP Removal.
- With its current trigger cooldown and debuff duration, it can trigger up to 5/6/8/10.
- Can deal up to 80/180/344/560 damage (before reductions) when triggering as often as possible.

Myrault's Hinder-Gast.
- Ghost Walk does not interrupt Invoker's channeling abilities upon cast.
- The movement speed slow on the enemies is provided by an aura. Its debuff lingers for 2 seconds.
- The slow debuff places some particles on the affected units, allowing them to know that Invoker is nearby.
- Invisibility is lost upon reaching the cast point of abilities or items, or upon launching an attack.
- Invoker can pick up or drop items without breaking the invisibility.

Killing Wall of Koryx.
- The Ice Wall is always created in front of Invoker, perpendicular to the line between Invoker and a point 200 range right in front of him.
- Creates 15 wall segments, with a spacing of 80 between each, resulting in a total length of 1120.
- Each segment affects a 105 radius around itself.
- With the radius from both sides and the wall length, Ice Wall has an effective length of 1330.
- Each segment has a movement speed slowing aura. Its debuff lingers for 2 seconds.
- The damage is independent from the slow, so getting further than 105 radius away from a segment immediately stops the damage, while the slow still lingers.
- Deals damage in 1-second intervals, starting 1 second after cast, resulting in up to 4/7/9/12 possible instances.
- Can deal up to 48/154/288/504 damage to a single unit (before reductions), when it stays in range for its full duration.
- Ice Wall is not a pathing blocker. Any unit can pass through it.
E.M.P. (AD)
Invoker builds up a charge of electromagnetic energy at a targeted location which automatically detonates after %delay% seconds. The detonation covers an area, draining mana. Deals damage for each point of mana drained. If E.M.P. drains mana from an enemy hero, Invoker gains 50% of the mana drained.

Endoleon's Malevolent Perturbation.
- E.M.P. first applies the mana burn, and then the damage.
- Restores Invoker's mana when it burns mana from heroes.
- Mana burned on illusions and other units does not restore mana.
- The damage and the mana restored are dependent on the amount of mana burned on the enemies.
- This means if the enemy had no mana left to burn, it deals no damage to it and does not restore Invoker's mana.
- Fully affects invisible units, but not invulnerable or hidden units.
- Can deal up to 105/180/255/330 damage to each affected unit (before reductions).
- Can restore up to 87.5/150/212.5/275 mana for Invoker from each affected hero.
- The visual effects and the sound during the 2.9 seconds effect delay are visible and audible to everyone.
Unleashes a fast moving tornado that picks up enemy units in its path, suspending them helplessly in the air shortly before allowing them to plummet to their doom. Travels further based on the level and holds enemies in the air for a duration.

Claws of Tornarus.
- The Tornado travels at a speed of 1000 and always travels the full distance, so it takes 1.2/1.865/2.53/3.2 seconds to reach the max distance.
- With the travel distance and effect radius, Tornado can hit units up to 1400/2065/2730/3400 range away.
- Tornado first applies the basic dispel, then the cyclone on the affected units, turns them invulnerable and fully disables them for its duration.
- The damage is applied upon losing the Tornado debuff. Can deal up to 160/235/310/385 damage to each affected unit (before reductions).
- While in the air, other units may pass below the cycloned units.
- The Tornado provides 200 radius flying vision as it travels. This vision does not last.
- The same vision is also provided for 1.75 seconds after reaching its final destination.
- Does not lift Roshan, but damages and interrupts him for a split second.

Harlek's Incantation of Incineration.
- The damage is spread evenly among all affected units within the targeted area, including creeps. Unaffected units do not soak up any damage.
- Does not affect wards, buildings, invulnerable or hidden units.
- This is how much damage Sun Strike deals when hitting a certain amount of units (before reductions).
- 2 Units: 81/133/185/237.5 damage.
- 3 Units: 54/88.67/123.33/158.33 damage.

Invoker pulls a flaming meteor from space onto the targeted location. Upon landing, the meteor rolls forward, constantly dealing damage and rolling further based on the level. Units hit by the meteor will also be set on fire for a short time.

Tarak's Descent of Fire.
- Chaos Meteor needs 1.3 seconds to land. It lands at the targeted point within the cast range, not at Invoker's position.
- The falling meteor visual effects and the sound during the 1.3 seconds effect delay are visible and audible to everyone.
- Chaos Meteor provides 400 radius flying vision while it is rolling. This vision does not last.
- Also provides the same vision for 3 seconds after reaching its final destination.
- With the cast range, travel distance and effect radius, it can hit units up to 1590/1855/2120/2385 range away. The area between Invoker and the targeted point is unaffected.
- Chaos Meteor rolls at a speed of 300 and always rolls the full distance, so it takes 2.05/2.93/3.82/4.7 seconds to reach the max distance.
- After landing, the meteor deals its main damage and places the burn debuff to units within its effect radius in 0.5-second intervals, starting immediately upon landing.
- On each interval, the meteor first applies the damage, then the debuff.
- The following Chaos Meteor damage calculations are all before reductions:
- The main damage can hit a unit up to 5/6/8/10 times and thus can deal up to 355/618/1072/1660 damage.
- The burn debuff deals damage in 1-second intervals, starting 1 second after the debuff is placed, resulting in 3 instances for each debuff.
- The burn debuffs from each interval fully stack and do not refresh each other. So a unit can be affected by 5/6/8/10 instances of the burn debuff per cast.
- One instance of the burn debuff can deal up to 42/60/78/96 damage.
- All possible instances of burn damage per unit together can deal up to 210/360/624/960 damage.
- The whole Chaos Meteor, main and burn damage, can deal up to 565/978/1696/2620 damage when a unit is hit by all possible instances.
- With Aghanim's Shard, 2 extra meteors are launched with a 30° angle to the left and right of Invoker.
- The angle is based on Invoker's position. No matter the cast distance, the meteors always land and travel along offset by 30° from the centered meteor.
- The extra meteors land so that they are at least 200 range away from the centered meteor.
- This means when the targeted point is within 346 range of Invoker, they land further ahead of the centered meteor to keep a minimum distance of 200.
- This means, unlike the centered meteor, the extra meteors cannot land within 400 range of Invoker.
Deafening Blast (AD)
Invoker unleashes a mighty sonic wave in front of him, dealing damage to any enemy unit it collides with. The sheer impact from the blast is enough to knock those enemy units back for a duration then disarm their attacks for a duration.

Buluphont's Aureal Incapacitator.
- Deafening Blast travels at a speed of 1100 and always travels the full distance, which takes 0.91 seconds.
- With the travel distance and end radius, Deafening Blast can hit units up to 1225 range away.
- The complete area is shaped like a cone.
- Applies a non-disabling Forced Movement, so affected enemies can still use abilities and items during it and their channeling abilities are not interrupted.
- The knockback and disarm are applied at the same time.
- This is how the knockback works:
- Affected units are moved in 0.03-second intervals.
- They are moved 13/24/35/46 times, defined as
(Quas × 20 / 3). - The knockback calculation can be split up into two sections - the first intervals and the remaining intervals.
- In the first intervals, which is 4/8/11/15 times, units are moved linearly, by a distance of 6 per interval.
- For the remaining of the intervals - 9/16/24/31, the units are moved exponentially with 0.98 times the speed of the previous interval.
- So the remaining intervals together (on each level) move the units by a distance of 48.88/81.2/112.96/136.84.
- The remaining intervals can be defined as at level 1 Quas.
- Summed up, the total distance on each level is 72.88/129.2/178.96/226.84.
- As conclusion, the knockback starts at a speed of 200 and decreases exponentially.
- Can knock units over impassable terrain. During the knockback, all trees the units collide with get destroyed.
- Does not knock Roshan back, but damages and disarms him.
