Leash is a status effect that prevents affected units from casting some mobility spells, sharing the same list as root.
Mechanics[]
Leash disables casting several mobility abilities (e.g. Blink-based abilities) and it shares a few interactions with the Root mechanic. Although, Leash prevents casting certain abilities, it does not cancel them when getting leashed while the ability is cast. Leash also does not interrupt channeling, but it always cancels Town Portal Scroll's teleport.
