Devo Wars

Devo Wars is a custom game mode introduced in Version 3.7.12. It is based on the Warcraft 3 custom map, Pudge Wars.

Gameplay

Every player starts the game as  Devourer.

The first team to reach 60 kills wins the game. If the game does not end within 20 minutes, the team with the highest amount of kills wins instead.

Modifiers

Players start the game with 50 .

Players gain 1  and 1.5 Experience every 1.75 seconds.

Respawn times are lowered to 3-5 seconds. Upon respawning, you are invulnerable for 2.5 seconds.

Ability

Devourer has only one ability: Chain Hook.

Chain Hook Cast Time: 0.35 / 1.05 seconds Target Position Range: 5000 Cooldown: 5 seconds The Devourer launches his Hook at a target unit or location.

At default, the hook deals 235 Physical Damage, travels 1600 units at 1100 speed, and has a touch radius of 70.

For every level up, you can upgrade the hook in the following: Damage, Speed, Range, and Radius. There is no maximum level for each stat upgrade, although there is still the hero level limit of 25.

Hovering over the upgrade will display the current values.

Upgrade Hook: Damage Passive Permanently Increases Damage on Hook by 15 Per Level.	Upgrade Hook: Range Passive Permanently Increases Range on Hook by 120 Per Level.
Upgrade Hook: Speed Passive Permanently Increases Speed on Hook by 40 Per Level.	Upgrade Hook: Radius Passive Permanently Increases Radius on Hook by 5 Per Level.

When the hook is launched, it will travel in the direction targeted until it reaches its maximum range. The hook can bounce to walls and the center pillar, and the hook will still travels its intended maximum distance. When the hook grabs a hero, it will drag the hero back in the path it took.

When you hook a hero that is currently being pulled by another hook, it will instantly kill it if grabs an enemy (displays as "HEADSHOT" publically) or deny it if it grabs an ally.
