Creeps[ | ]

Creeps (or Lane Creeps) are weak units aligned to either Legion or Hellbourne. These creeps will advance along their lane, attacking any enemy or building that stands in their way, all the way up to the enemy's main base structure. There are three types of creeps: Melee creeps, Ranged creeps, and Siege creeps.

Melee creeps come in packs and have more health but deal less damage than Ranged creeps. Ranged creeps have less health but deal more damage, particularly against other creeps. Siege creeps spawn occasionally and while they have a low attack speed, they deal extra damage to Towers and Buildings, posing a threat to structures. They also take less damage from heroes and are Magic Immune as well, making them extra durable.

Mechanics[ | ]

Once the clock hits 0:00 and every 30 seconds afterwards, a wave of creeps will emerge from each lane. The wave starts with 3 Melee creeps and 1 Ranged creep. Siege creeps spawn at 3:00 and then every +2:30 after that.

Creeps become stronger as the time passes. Every 7 minutes, Melee and Ranged creeps gain a small boost to their attack damage and health. This bonus maxes out at 30 charges, or at 3:30:00, or when they are transformed into Mega Creeps by destroying all of the enemy's Barracks.

At 17:00, 44:00, and 50:00, an extra Melee creep is added to each wave, and at 33:00, an extra Ranged and Siege creep are added.

When an enemy's Barracks is destroyed, the corresponding Creep of that type will turn into Super Creeps. Super Creeps are significantly more powerful than normal creeps and have a smaller bounty as well.

Neutrals[ | ]

Neutrals reside on the forests (or jungle) in the map. As their name suggests, they are not aligned to any team. Neutrals serve as a alternative source of farm, and a select group of heroes are able to start off killing Neutrals instead of going to a lane.

Neutral camps are arranged by 4 difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Ancients. In Forests of Caldavar, each side of the map contains 1 Easy camp, 2 Medium camps, 2 Hard camps, and 1 Ancients. Ancients are more unique from the other camps in that not only are they much stronger than other Neutrals, they spawn in an area outside of the main jungle, have high Magic Armor and are immune to conversion and Transmute-type abilities.

The Boss unit is a particularly powerful Neutral that takes immense power and teamwork to take down. Kongor resides in Forests of Caldavar and Zorgath and Transmutanstein are located in Mid Wars. Taking down a Boss provides a gold reward to the entire team (plus its regular bounty to the killer) and will drop a powerful item on death. Like Ancients, they are immune to conversion and Transmute and are also immune to certain abilities.

Mechanics[ | ]

Neutrals begin spawning at 0:30, then at 1:00 and every minute after that. They spawn in sets of specific number and kinds of Neutrals, based on the difficulty of the camp. If a camp is occupied by Neutral, other units, certain Gadgets, and corpses, Neutrals will not respawn at the designated time. Players can see this area while placing a Ward of Sight or Ward of Revelation.

When a Neutral is attacked or approached during the daytime, they will attack the unit that triggered their aggro. When a group of Neutrals is not within their camp area during the Neutral respawn time, a new group of Neutrals will spawn there. This technique is known as Stacking, and is essential in maximizing the amount of farm from a given camp. Neutrals can be stacked up to two times, or three groups of Neutrals in one area, with the exception of Easy camps. Neutrals will be forced to return to their camp when led outside of their camp for 5 seconds, meaning the best time to stack a camp is at x:55.

Pets[ | ]

Pets refer to any unit that can be summoned by a hero. Many of them are fully controllable like the Heroes that summoned them, and their strength and utility varies greatly between each other. A few heroes possess abilities that summon pets, and any hero can have two pets of their own by using a Puzzlebox Puzzlebox.

Neutral units and lane creeps can be made controllable by Dominating them with a Whispering Helm Whispering Helm or Ophelia Ophelia's Ophelia Command Command (and by extension, Parasite Parasite's Parasite Infest Infest), but Dominated Neutrals are not considered summoned units, and are thus not truly Pets.

Gadgets[ | ]

Gadgets are different from standard units in that many of them are partially or fully uncontrollable by the player, but can still be interacted with. While similar to Pets, Gadgets have their own specific type of immunity. Gadgets are immune to Magic and Splash Damage and are unaffected by abilities, status effects, and auras. Any unit that possesses this (referred to "Gadget Immunity" within the game files) is a Gadget.

Some Gadgets behave like units, except they cannot be controlled by the player directly. Examples include Arachna's Spiderling, Emerald Warden's Emerald Warden Summon Gawain Gawain, or Forsaken Archer's Skeletons. However, not all uncontrollable units are Gadgets, such as Gravekeeper's Zombies.

Units that can be controlled but are immobile (on top of possessing the above-mentioned "Gadget Immunity") fall under the Gadget category, such as Pollywog Priest's Voodoo Wards. Ward-type units such as Wards of Sight are Gadgets are well.

There are many invisible gadgets in the game that are used for programming certain aspects of abilities, such as giving vision or marking certain areas, but since they cannot be interacted with or viewed by the player in any way, they are not considered a Unit.
