Hero Usage

• Heroes will use this skill on recharge, completely ignoring its disabling effect. Occasionally heroes will postpone this skill if the target has recently activated a skill (as long as it remains visible in the skill activation window of the target).

Notes

• Combined with a +33% attack speed boost as well as an adrenaline boost, this skill alone can interrupt foes more frequently than almost any other skill; only Psychic Distraction is an exception.
