In his youth, the precocious wizard mastered not four, not five, not even seven incantations: He could command no fewer than ten spells, and cast them instantly. Ordinary wizards were content to know two, and it was not uncommon for a village mage to know only one-with even that requiring him to consult grimoires as an aid against forgetfulness on the rare occasions when he might be called to use it.īut among these early practitioners there was one exception, a genius of vast intellect and prodigious memory who came to be known as the Invoker. The most devoted might hope in a lifetime to have adequate recollection of three spells-four at most. The greatest mages in those days were the ones blessed with the greatest memories, and yet so complex were the invocations that all wizards were forced to specialize. All the trappings of ritual were merely mnemonic devices, meant to allow the practitioner to recall in rich detail the specific mental formulae that unlocked a spell's power. It required no technology, no wands or appurtenances other than the mind of the magician. In its earliest, and some would say most potent form, magic was primarily the art of memory. Whatever magic he chooses, one thing is certain: All shall come to bow before the Arsenal Magus. And last but not least, predicting enemy movement and using the Sun to Strike enemies from anywhere on the map. Pulling down a gigantic Meteor from space to crush enemies along a path while at the same time unleashing a Deafening Blast to push them along meteor's path. Lifting enemies off the ground with a Tornado that reaches through half the battlefield, while charging up an Extractive Mana Pulse for the whirling foes to land into. Conjuring an Ice Wall to stop foes in their paths before vanishing into thin air, chilling nearby enemies like a Ghost Wandering through their ranks. Forging Spirits of ice and fire to melt away the armor of enemies with great Alacrity while Snapping their heat-deprived cold bodies. Wielding the elements of Quas, Wex and Exort, the Invoker surpasses them all. Go all in with your hero and bless the community with another Arcana.Weaves magic with an array of spell combos.Ī competent wizard knows perhaps two spells an exceptional one, three or four. Honestly, after that close final between Pudge and Rubick last year, fans should not hold back at all this year.
The vote will end next week and the final result will be revealed in The International. If we go with the hype Rubick is a clear winner here since people are rooting for him for 2 years now while considering the momentum Faceless Void got anything can happen at this point. This means the Final is very unpredictable at the moment because Rubick is unstoppable since last year TI while Faceless Void was nowhere close but now all of a sudden he got a momentum by defeating 2 of the all-time crowd favorite hero, Invoker, and Anti-Mage. In the other semifinal, Rubick defeated Spectre single-handedly continuing his unstoppable run from TI7 as he got 16.6 million votes to Spectre’s 11.9 Million. Faceless void grabbed his place in the finals with 11.5 million votes while Invoker got 10.4 million. Making it one of the biggest upset of Arcana vote Faceless Void defeated invoker to reach the final and compete against Rubick for the final showdown.
