Spell lifesteal
Spell lifesteal allows the hero to heal from spell damage they deal. Just like attack damage lifesteal, spell lifesteal is calculated by a percentage of the actual damage done to units. However, unlike attack damage lifesteal, it does not heal for overkill damage dealt to a unit, so if a spell's damage exceeded the target's current health and killed it, the heal is based on the target's remaining health.

1 The instantly killing effect of these spells also triggers Spell Lifesteal, healing based on the killed unit's remaining health.
2 Despite these spells using separate units to apply their effects, the damage sources of those are set on the caster, so Spell Lifesteal procs and heals.
3 The rum wear-off health loss does not proc Spell Lifesteal.
4 Does not lifesteal off of the area health cost. Only steals life when targeting an enemy to damage it.
