"Flesh is fickle, stone is eternal"
Skale cannot remember his beginning. Nor can anyone else, for that matter. For untold centuries Skale guarded the tomb of a sorcerer from ages past, his remains long since reduced to dust. But Skale waited, ever vigilant, ever bound by ancient magics. Until one day, the tomb's magic was broken by a band of enterprising grave robbers. Skale ripped them to shreds, of course, but he could not say he bore them any special ill-will. After all, they had set him free.

Hero Highlight
Skale is a great support jungler that has the potential to be very disruptive to the enemy team. With almost every skill set (stun, slow, shield/heal) that you ask for in a support, he can be a good addition to almost any team composition. Not only is Skale very duarable, he also has the potential to deal a good amount of damage, making him a very useful hero at all stages of the game.

Crippling Blast

Cooldown: 14/12/10/8 sec
Range: 12 m
Cooldown: 14/12/10/8 sec

Skale channels as he shoots out a deadly, crippling beam at a targeted direction for 4 seconds. The beam deals 30/40/50/60 + [10% Magical Attack] Magical Damage a tick and applies 3 ticks of damage per second, but only affects the first enemy it touches.
Each tick of damage causes a 6% reduction of the target's Attack Speed and Movement Speed, which lasts for 3 seconds and can be stacked. If the slow effects stack up to 40%, the target will be stunned for 2 seconds.
Skale can move freely and cast Stone Soul on only himself as he channels, but maintains the initial trajectory of Crippling Blast until the channel ends.
Skale may reactivate Crippling Blast to end its effects prematurely.

Tips & Strategies
- Skale is classed as a support hero. But from his skill sets, he can be played as a very tanky hero. Give him defensive items and HP increase, and he will get very hard to kill following his Flying Fury and/or Eternal Guardian. Both these skills increase his resilience drastically late game
- Stone Soul scales very well with Magical Attack. Late game with a full mage build, he can easily get beyond 600Hp per cast.
- To unlock the full potential of Skale, you need to practice the mechanic of his Crippling Blast. Once started, you can still move but cannot change direction of the beam And only the first target hit by the beam will receive damage. So, positioning is key.
- With Crippling Blast at level 1, Skale is one of the best jungle invaders.
- Late game, with high CD build, Crippling Blast can be cast almost non-stop!
- Skill combo: Use Eternal Guardian in the middle of the fight to protect your allies with the damage reduction, use next Crippling Blast to stun enemies and when Eternal Guardian is close to end or you need to save your teammates nuke it with Flying Fury.
- Use Flying Fury to quickly clear waves and jungles in the laning stage. Also Flying Fury can help you to escape since it can pass though walls.
