Hayabusa Limited Time Discount (First Week)
Price: 419 Diamonds (Original: 599 Diamonds)/32000 BP
Backstory:
In the town of Iga, the strongest ninja of every generation receives the title of Shadow, responsible for the most dangerous and difficult missions, protecting the town of Iga day in and day out, all without the knowledge of its inhabitants.
At present, the freshly-anointed Shadow of Iga, Hayabusa, has been transported to the Land of Dawn to carry out the most dangerous and difficult of missions:
Find and kill the previous generation's Shadow who betrayed and killed his friend, the one who was once lauded as the greatest ninja Iga had seen in centuries.
Abilities:
Ninjutsu: Shadow Heal (Passive): After dealing 5 hits of ability damage on the same hero, Hayabusa will regen HP. The lower his HP is, the more he will regen.
Phantom Shuriken: Throws out three shurikens in a fan-shaped area in front of him. Each shuriken deals damage to the first enemy it hits. If 3 shurikens all hit the same hero, then Hayabusa will regen mana.
Quad Shadow: Releases four phantoms of himself in 4 directions. When a phantom encounters an enemy hero, it will cause a slow down effect, deal physical damage, and burrow itself into the enemy's body. The next use of this ability will move Hayabusa to the phantom's location, and if directed towards a phantom inside of an enemy, it will deal additional damage to the enemy.
Ougi: Shadow Kill: Turns into a shadow and dashes around the battlefield, dealing multiple hits of damage to enemies within a certain area, starting with enemy heroes first. Each attack deals physical damage. Damage will increase for multiple hits in a row on the same hero.
