Decrepify will slow the target, rendering it unable to attack or be attacked and increase the magic damage it takes, similar to an Ether Blast from an Ethereal Blade. It can also be cast on allies but will not slow them. Usually you would want to cast it on an enemy hero whom your team can focus down with magical spells. It can also be used to save yourself or an ally when being targeted by a physical attack dependant enemy, like a carry. | |||

Pugna is a ranged intelligence hero who is usually played as a semi-carry and pusher. He is notable for having the highest intelligence growth in the game. He can spam his Nether Blast to rack up damage a lot of damage and even push down towers. He can use Decrepify to alter the state of an enemy, slowing them down and making them more vulnerable to magic. His Nether Ward will punish anyone who dares cast a spell by sending mana flares at them. If Pugna ever finds himself low on health, he can simply use Life Drain to sap an enemy's vitality for himself.

Nether Blast will do damage to a wide area after a short delay. It deals 33% damage to buildings, and is one of the few spells in the game that does so. With a cooldown of 5.5 seconds, you can spam it for pushes to take out creep waves while chipping down towers. You can also use it as an AoE damage spell during teamfights. The high damage combined with the low cooldown means the damage will rack up quite quickly.
