Swashbuckle
Pangolier dashes along the target line, then slashes and briefly slows all enemies in the drawn direction with several quick swipes. Lucky Shot has a chance to activate from this damage.
Shield Crash
Pangolier jumps in the air and slams back to the ground in front of his current position damaging all enemies in a radius. Pangolier gains an all damage barrier for a short time if Shield Crash hits an enemy hero. Forward movement is maintained if Shield Crash is used while Rolling Thunder is active, and allows Rolling Thunder to clear walls or cliffs.
Lucky Shot
Pangolier rolls the dice and lets fate decide the outcome for his enemies. Grants a chance to drastically slow their attack speed and reduce armor on any damage dealt by Pangolier's attacks or abilities.
Roll Up
Pangolier curls into an immobile protective ball, gaining debuff immunity, 80% magic resistance, and allowing him to turn. Can be cast during Rolling Thunder to temporarily hit the brakes. Can cast Rolling Thunder and Shield Crash during Roll Up. If enemies attack Pangolier during this, he will roll away from the attacker, applying Rolling Thunder damage/stun if there are enemies in the way.
Rolling Thunder
Pangolier curls into a debuff immune ball with 80% magic resistance and rolls out. When rolling, he moves at an increased speed and can move through trees, but has a decreased ability to turn. Striking enemies knocks them back, inflicting damage proportional to his attack damage and stunning them when they land. Colliding with walls or cliffs will cause a temporary pause while Pangolier reverses in direction. DISPEL TYPE: Basic Dispel
