[Aghanim's] Batrider

[Senyu]

Edit: Added a second Agha possibility

Trying to give Batrider an interesting Agha, he seems like a hero who could use one.

Version 1
-Flaming Lasso's duration increased by 1 second
-Batrider receives +10/20/30 movement speed for the next 8 seconds
-If Flaming Lasso finishes its full duration, Firefly CD's will be refreshed and cost 0 mana for the next 5 seconds


Note this does not allow 2 Fireflys to be active at the same time, if Firefly is still active when reactivated it will refresh its duration.


Version 2
-Flaming Lasso's duration increased by 1 second
-Enemies under Lasso's effect will suffer damage equal to current level of Firefly and lasts the duration of Lasso. This will stack with Firefly.
-Enemies under Lasso effect lose evasion for the duration of Lasso, and have Magic/Physical Immunity removed/dispelled.

This will increase Batriders presence by locking down hard to hit heroes allowing the team to strike them, and allow him to be the only hero that can removed the magic/physical immunity. While it does seem OP it is only this hero that can do it with an Agha's. Making him a good counter to Omniknight, Naix, Evasion Heroes, and BKB users. This really adds presence to a teamfight and would make him more of a viable pick and a strong target.

We all activate Firefly during Lasso so the victim is dragged over flames, so what's the point of refreshing Firefly after Lasso finishes?

Try give it a Rupture-like effect that does damage based on distance dragged.

A rupture effect wouldn't be the best because sometimes you just need to keep the hero still for your allies to hit them. Adding firefly refresh/reactivate can instead do the following......

-Allow theoretically double the duration of firefly
-Allow use of firefly before Lasso dealing damage, then deal even more damage as Firefly continues
-Can refresh Firefly so Batrider may escape if its already on cooldown


Alternatively I could do something like Ogre Magi making it so Firefly activated again from the Lasso refresh makes it burn hotter dealing more damage.

T-d on the refresh thing t-null on the speed burst, the duration buff is ok though.

feedback on both versions pls?

I'd rather just add a 60/120/180 dps to it...
