*Artanis' Current level 1 talents are not really funny and Amateur Opponent is way too strong to be ignored. I wanted to give him some quest to give him more damage or control. Moreover, I think this will give Artanis the opportunity to create builds base on one of his ability and have some cool synergy between his other talents*

Level 4

[E] Psionic Synergy : Hitting an enemy Hero with Phase Prism grants 20 Armor for 3 seconds.

[Trait] Shield Battery : Shield Overload's cooldown recharges 100% faster while its Shield is active, and the Shield duration is increased by 1 second.

[Trait] Shield Surge : Increases Shield Overload's Shields by 75% while below 25% Health.
If the shield is destroy, reduce the Attack speed of nearby enemy Heroes by 15%.

Level 7

New Talent :
[E] Psionic Wound : Phase Prism lowers a Hero's Armor by 15 for 4 seconds and Twin Blades final strike lowers a Hero's Armor by 5 for 2 seconds.
Passive : After using an Ability, your next Basic Attack within 6 seconds deals 40% additional damage. After using Phase Prism this bonus is increase to 80% dditional damage.

[E] Warp Sickness : Phase Prism also slows the enemy's Movement Speed by 35% for 4 seconds.

[E] Chrono Surge : Hitting an enemy Hero with Phase Prism grants 75% bonus Attack Speed for 5 seconds. Allow Artanis's next 3 Basic Attack immediately causes him to charge a short distance, if the 3 Attack hit the target of Phase Prism, reduce the cooldown of Shield Overload by 2 seconds.

*This talent tier need to be changed! Warp Sickness is way better than Follow Through or the current Chrono Surge which is too situational. Moreover the old talent Psionic Wound was fun but too weak for a level 16, so combine Follow Through with a new version of Psionic Wound could give Artanis more burst damage and provide more utility for his team while giving a focus after a swap. So we've got Psionic Wound for teh burst, Warp Sickness for the control and Chrono Surge for the sunstain damage and survivability. Every one of those talents got a synergy with Graviton Vortex at level 13 and create a real Phase Prism build.*

Level 13

[Q] Templar's Zeal : Reduce the Mana cost of Blade Dash from 50 to 25. Each time that Shield Overload activates, reduce the cooldown of Blade Dash by 5 seconds. Artanis is Unstoppable during the first dash of Blade Dash.

[E] Graviton Vortex : Reduce the Mana cost of Phase Prism from 70 to 35. Hitting an enemy Hero with Basic Attacks or Blade Dash reduces the cooldown of Phase Prism by 1.25 seconds.

[Trait] Phase Bulwark : Shield Overload grants 50 Spell Armor while active and for 2 seconds after it expires.

Level 16

[Z/W] Titan Killer : Basic Attacks against Heroes deal an bonus damage equal to 0.50% of the target's maximum Health in damage, increased to 1.50% when empowered by Twin Blades.

[Trait] Force of Will : Casting Basic Abilities reduces the cooldown of Shield Overload by 5 seconds.
