New hero to celebrate Source 2.

Gabe, the Trickster.

Bio: Some shitty mage who got off on playing a lot of tricks on people. Eventually, while messing around with some magic to punk some fools he accidentally transported himself to a black void, where he encountered a glowing orb of light he came to know as "The Source", the beginning of all the universes. He tapped into a small portion of its power then bla bla bla he's fighting ancients.

Movespeed: 310


Q: Internal Shuffle
Shuffles the targets stats. If used on allies, a stat bonus is applied to all of the targets stats after the shuffle is complete.
Stat bonus: 2/4/6/8
Duration: 8
Cooldown: 3
Mana cost: 95/105/115/125
Notes: For example, an enemy with 20s, 18a and 15i may wind up with 18s, 15a and 20i. However, an ally with those same stats will wind up with (assuming the skill is level 4) 26s, 23a and 28i. Depending on the difference between stats and the skills level, it could have a net positive affect on each stat if used on an ally. Low cooldown allows you to wreak havoc in a fight, although has short cast range.

W: Break
Breaks the fundamental connection between an enemies item and The Source, causing it to malfunction. Item is selected at random.
Duration: 5/6/7/8
Cooldown: 60/50/40/30
Notes: An enemies malfunctioning item will be marked in his inventory. A malfunctioning item will continue to provide stat bonuses, but will not offer any other passive effects. Attempting to use the malfunctioning items active ability will result in a 50% chance of the active malfunctioning (doing nothing and going on cooldown), a 40% chance of it backfiring (varies from item to item. Abyssal Blade will cast on yourself, whereas BoTs will simply deal damage to you) and a 10% chance of functioning normally.


E: Block
Blocks random amounts of damage from each source of damage applied to Gabe.
Min Block: 5%/10%/15%/20%
Max Block: 10%/20%/30%/50%
Notes: It is NOT evasion, so it cannot bypassed with True Strike. Works pretty simply. After the final amount of damage is determined (after magic resistance, armour, other blocks, etc) the damage is reduced further by a random amount. For example, if Lina's ultimate would strike for 500 damage with this ability ignored, once the ability is taken into account (say, a level 3 Block) a random amount between 15% and 30% is blocked. In this case, say 20%. Only 400 damage will be dealt.

R: Rewind
Turns back the course of events in the universe, returning everything to its original position several seconds earlier.
Cooldown: 360/320/280
Manacost: 100
Time rewound: 4 seconds
Notes: This works as if rewinding the game in a replay. EVERYTHING goes back. If you used a BKB two seconds ago, and Gabe uses this ability, your BKB is back off cooldown, its time restored. All spells go back to whatever their cooldown was a few seconds ago. Etc. It's just like restoring a save state. It's a 'free undo' of a bad teamfight or an ally getting ganked. Nothing can prevent it or block it.

Another potential ultimate is Randomise. Everyone on the map has their positions swapped (with some limitation, eg no swapping with someone within enemy tower range. They're either immune or can only swap with allies (the latter allowing for more tactical use)).
