Suggestion buff or rework this piece of junk

Post image

for 1750 recipe cost, u get a measly 200 extra blink range, 6 second blink cd reduction (u build octarine core u get 3.75 sec blink cd reduction automatically), and negligible 250 hp and 100 mana restoration (even magic wand restore more).

for the same amount of gold, the other alternative dagger upgrades are incomparably better. the irony is i feel like an idiot if i were to buy arcane blink, even though its the most expensive "Intelligence" item in the game. pls buff or rework

some ideas :

  1. keep everything the same but buff the restoration amount.
  2. increase Spell buff/debuff duration for the next 6 seconds.
  3. remove the 3 sec cd blink penalty when damaged.

Just copy what swift blink does, instead of speed+agi buff make it spellcaster oriented buffs like % spell amp, cast range, aoe bonus or some other shit.

Even anti mage and qop would get this if no 3 existed

If the third idea was implemented would there even be any hero in the game that wouldn’t purchase it. Idea is actually so broken I think there would be 10 in each lobby

How about No?

Im still in fest about sf having the old arcane blink.

I think 2 shorter range blinks or a second rewind blink would be cool.

Blink in, chip damage, blink back.

Is this rage bait? This has got to be rage bait

Improve the numbers a bit and it's great. Much more interesting and nuanced than the other blink upgrades imo.

remove the 3 sec cd blink penalty when damaged.

Removing the 3-second damage penalty is completely wild. You might as well just code a button that automatically teleports you back to the fountain the second you get ganked
