Lore

Before there was daytime, there was only night, and the world was full of dark creatures like Balanar. When the First Day dawned, most of them died. All but one. Night Stalker is that one—the embodiment of evil, the original Boogeyman. He's the reason kids are scared of the dark, and he loves it. He doesn't just lurk in stories; he actually stalks the unwary, the ones who wander off the lighted path or ignore the warnings. He's living proof that every child's worst nightmare is real.

Kit

Abilities

Void

Unit Target

Creates a damaging void that slows an enemy unit and deals damage. At night, Void also mini-stuns, interrupting channeling abilities, and its effects lasts longer.

Balanar creates a vortex of infinite night, tearing opponents violently into the eternal darkness that once was.

Facets

Blinding Void

Enemies affected by Void do not share vision with their allies. Affected enemies take damage per second when they are not visible to their allies.

Night Reign

The game now starts at night instead of day. Night is longer than day.

Voidbringer

Increases the max level of Void. Level 5 Void at night becomes ground targeted and applies to an area.
