Broodmother's "Spin Web"

Broodmother's "Spin Web" ability creates a web that covers a radius of 900 units. The ability does not provide any offensive ability; that is, the Broodmother has increased movement speed when walking on a web, but they do not damage enemies.

"Spins a large web that grants Broodmother a passive movement speed increase, gives free movement, and boosts regeneration while in its vicinity. Spin Web charges restore every 40 seconds. Spin Web can be cast from anywhere as long as the new web touches an existing web. Webs never expire, and can be manually destroyed. When the maximum limit of webs is exceeded, the oldest web disappears."

Phantom Lancer's "Doppleganger"

Phantom Lancer's "Doppleganger" ability allows both the player and any nearby illusions to teleport to another location. The initial area of effect comes in targetting the nearby illusions, and covers a radius of 900 units surrounding the player. All illusions reappear within an area of effect radius of 325 units.

"Phantom Lancer briefly vanishes from the battlefield. After 1 second, Phantom Lancer and any of his nearby illusions reappear at a random position within the targeted location, along with two additional doppelgangers. Extends duration of all illusions. The two added doppelgangers have different properties: one takes normal damage and deals none, while the other takes 500% bonus damage and deals 80% less damage."
