| Skill Info: anti-magic shell a.k.a AMS <-- sounds cool isn't it Magic damage absorbed: 350x level Mana cost: 50 Duration : 28 + 2x level Background: Alright lets face it, i can count the number of people that used this skill with 10 fingers in my entire cha career . The most underused skill in cha and i dont think anyone will notice it if this has been removed. A very good skill for anti nuke in early level, but become extremely useless once people got atma beam or better nuke in late game General Info: The skill can shield all nukes from players in early game, more than that, it can protect you from all creep nukes. 350 damage can protect you from level 2 frost nova and hopefully all creep's spell damage in the first 10 creeps level, and with level 6 ams it can shield all damage from level 12 frost nova. The skill has very low mana cost and cool down with long duration, in level 12 it can last for 52 seconds with a 4200 magic damage protection. Skill usage: Not much points are needed to spend on this skill even in mid game, as the shell can be recast within seconds, so just remember to recast it when you think the shell is about to wear off. Only pick this skill if your opponents have int heroes, cause endurance or skeletal army or parasite can really help you much more against melee heroes. The skill is only recommdend for str and agi hero. Before duel, make sure every single person in your team has the shell, as the shell lasts for at least 30 seconds, there might not be needed for a recast. The second usage of the spell is for elemental bosses, the shell can screw all elemental bosses over since their spell doesn't hurt you as long as you have a level 4 or 5 ams. Also, remember the spell is recastable, so just shell yourself again once it wears off, though it is very unlikely for the boss to have the mana to nuke you again except the rock boss. The skill will become useless in late game when nuker hero gets nuking items like the corruption staff or staff of the death mage. The only usage of it will be, it makes your hero looks cooler. | |

| the only spell in the game that can stand up to this is the 10k atma beam. Staff of the death mage has a 6k nuke, but by the time anyone gets it, you'll have over 10k HP, and it will only hit you for ~1500 if you have no magic reduction items. (heroes have 20% natural spell reduction)
The more players in your game, or the more casters on the other team makes this skill exponentially better! | |

| people HIGHLY under rate this skill, in a team game i believe it might be the best skill in the game as it only costs 50 mana a pop. get a farming skill and devotion aura with this and uve got urself a nice team build that can keep up with the pvp builds.
also, this skill helps ALOT with creeping in the level 8-10 creeps where they start spamming frost nova, forked lightning, and death coil. a level 2 ams can last about 4 of those spell slinging creeps and at level 12 it can even survive a full hit from death orb so it becomes really hard to gank u | |

| Has this skill been upgraded at all for 3.1 or is it still the same regardless it is still heavily underused. | |
