The smoke-blackened foundries of the Iron City have long been known to produce the endless stream of weapons and armor that make the Legion's war against the Hellbourne possible. But now, as manpower becomes harder to replace than supplies, the very Blacksmiths themselves have joined the battlefield, bringing strength earned through decades of toil and a mastery over fire itself.

Applies Frenzy to target for 30 seconds.

Notes
Each Multicast causes Frenzy to bounce to a random ally unit within 600 radius, prioritizing heroes.
The Blacksmith is experienced at gambling with fire, increasing the power of his other spells. When casting his other spells, he has a chance to achieve a much more powerful result.
Range:600 Mana Cost:33% of your Current Mana Cooldown:30 seconds
Passively grants Fireball and Frenzy a chance to cast multiple times, up to 2/3/4 times.
Decreases Fireball's cooldown by 2/4/6 seconds and increases Mana Cost by 10/40/70.
Your auto attacks now have a 10% chance to cast Fireball, Flaming Hammer, and/or Frenzy. These casts can multi-cast and do not share cooldown with your normal abilities. Also, grants a standalone level 4 Fireball to be cast.
And they said never play with fire.
Notes
Chaotic Flames calculates Multicast by rolling for a Multicast 1/2/3 times. The game only rolls for another Multicast if the roll succeeds.
The first roll has a 25/40/60% chance to succeed.
The second roll has a 0/50/50% chance to succeed.
The third roll has a 0/0/50% chance to succeed.
Therefore, Chaotic Flames actually has a 70/45/30% chance to cast once, 30/35/35% chance to cast twice, 0/20/20% chance to cast thrice, and 0/0/15% chance to cast quadraple.
Overall long-term average Multicast multiplier increased from 2.05x to 2.2x.
For Level 3 Chaotic Flames, average damage distribution for 1x/2x/3x/4x changed from approximately 20/29/22/29% to 14/32/27/27%, respectively.
With Staff of the Master, all three of your abilities have an individual 10% chance to cast.
With Staff of the Master, your autoattacks won't trigger Fireball or Flaming Hammer if the target is Physical or Magic Immune, or trigger Frenzy if the target's Physical Immune.
Risky Cast! (a Staff of the Master new ability from Chaotic Flames) isn't tied with regular Fireball, so it is level-independent and having separated cooldown, not shared.
Chance for a strict 1x Multicast (i.e. no Multicast) reduced from 75/60/40% to 70/45/30%.
Chance for a strict 2x Multicast increased from 25/20/30% to 30/35/35%.
Chance for a strict 3x Multicast increased from 0/20/15% to 0/20/20%.
Chance for a strict 4x Multicast remains unchanged at 0/0/15%.
Overall long-term average Multicast multiplier increased from 2.05x to 2.2x.
For Level 3 Blacksmith Chaotic Flames.jpg Chaotic Flames, average damage distribution for 1x/2x/3x/4x changed from approximately 20/29/22/29% to 14/32/27/27%, respectively.
