These fools know nothing of real armor…

• This ability got replaced by Lucky Shot in the 7.20 gameplay patch.

• Upon proccing a visual effect and a debuff on the target indicate the delay until the armor negation and slow are applied.
  • If the target is invulnerable after the delay, the armor negation and slow will not be applied.

• The armor negation sets the target's armor to 0. This means it also negates armor reducing effects.

• Gaining or losing armor after debuff is already placed does not matter. It always gets negated completely.

• Despite what the HUD displays, Heartpiercer negates all armor, including bonus armor, and not just base armor and that gained by agility.
  • Physical Resist on HUD is always right.

• The armor reduction affects creeps as well, even though their armor value and physical resist does not change in the HUD.

• Does not work against Roshan, buildings, wards or allied units.

• When proccing on an enemy who already has the reducing debuff, it refreshes that debuff, instead of placing a new delay debuff.

• When proccing on an enemy who already has the delay debuff, nothing happens.

• The proccing attack first applies the debuff, then its own damage.

• Heartpiercer uses pseudo-random distribution.
