A support who works in the shadows, guiding and supporting his comrades.

Combat Trait

Ancient Wisdom

Active: If at least 1 totem is on Sen'jin recalls all of his wards. If none is, he summons all of them equally distributed close to him.

Primordial Power: Sen'jin can summon powers beyond Life and Death, making them impossible to be influentiable. This means his damage ignores armor (for better or for worse) and his healing can't be increased nor decreased by any other hero. Also, his wards are immaterial, being impossible to be damaged by the living.

Wards: Sen`jin abilities are based on his wards. Each has a passive, weak effect, and the respective key (Q,W,E) causes them to be activated, consuming mana and entering cooldown, for a powerful effect. Sen`jin must be in range to use his wards. The wards can only be dismessed if Sen`jin presses D or die.

Design

Sen'jin is a squeashy hero designed to fight from distance and control the map. As a wise witch doctor, he needs total awareness to use his abilities. Sen'jin was designed to be like a spiritual leader, almost unseen by enemies, but from distance manipulating the battlefield and guiding his allies.
As a witch doctor he can also use potions. They are not very powerfull but can change a delicate fight or save an endagered ally. He will play through his wards, so knowing where to position them is crucial.

Playing as Sen'jin
Playing him should feel like you are always behind the shadows, trying not to be seen, but disrupting the enemy all the time. You may feel like this evil guy doing bad things and laughting of enemies disgrace.

Playing as his ally
Sen'jin is very squeashy and will need protection. He may be hidding in shadows while using his wards but diving enemies can reach him and you'll have to help. By keeping him alive you'll get a lot of utility and healing, making everything a lot more easier.

Playing against him
Sen'jin was designed to be far from battle, so you must be aware of his positioning. If he warded the map well you'd better look for another route. If you can dive or stealth, you should chase him to prevent him from hexing your team!
