Infest

N'aix tears its way into the unfortunate body of a target unit, laying dormant and undetectable inside its living frame until he is ready to come to form. When he comes out of the unit, he deals damage to all nearby enemy units. If the infested unit is an enemy, the Lifestealer will devour it first, gaining the health the unit currently has.

Level	Mana Cost	Cooldown	Casting Range	Area	Duration	Effects
1	50	100	150	700	Enemy non-hero units, allied units	150 damage
2	50	100	150	700	Enemy non-hero units, allied units	275 damage
3	50	100	150	700	Enemy non-hero units, allied units	400 damage

• Damage type: magical
• N'aix gains experience from kills made nearby the Infested target while he is traveling with it.
• If the Infested unit is killed before N'aix uses Consume, he will not be healed.
