Heroes of NewErth Parasite Introduction:
Parasite is a hero all about messing with your opponents. He boasts the ability to steal movement speed, hop in and out of creeps to confuse and evade, and is an excellent one-vs-one hero. Parasite is a very efficient “jungling” hero – he can get his experience and gold from neutral creep camps – and is a lethal ganker. Most importantly, Parasite introduces an all new mini-game: Grand Theft Catapult: Newerth.
Parasite Hero Overview:
Parasite is a melee, Intelligence primary hero. He is ideally played in the jungle, where he can take control of powerful neutrals to farm and gank with.
Abilities:
-
Leech: Deals 80/130/180/230 Magic Damage to the target and steals 50/75/100/125 Movement Speed from it (giving it to Parasite).
-
Infest: Takes control of target non-hero unit, placing Parasite “inside” of the unit. The target loses 3/2.5/2/1.5% of its Max Health per second, gains 20/40/60/80 Attack Speed, 25/50/75/100 Movement Speed, and gains 1/2/3/4 times Parasite’s hero level in Attack Damage. Parasite may choose to exit the target at any time, instantly killing it and healing for 30/40/50/60% of its current Health.

Draining Venom: Targets that Parasite hits deal 6/12/18/24% less damage to him, and Parasite deals 6/12/18/24% bonus damage to the target.

Facehug: Parasite attaches to the target and pulls himself to it, dealing 200/300/400 Magic Damage and applying a 2/3/4 second Silence. Additionally, any buffs the target has are transferred to Parasite, and any debuffs Parasite has are transferred to the target.
