Additional Information[edit]

Ability[edit]
Soul Burn
Silences the target unit for 5 seconds. At the end of the silence, 30% of the damage received while silenced is inflicted as bonus magical damage.
Notes:
- Does not directly amplify damage as it is dealt, but rather saves all damage values and deals 30% of it 5 seconds after cast.
- This means that the damage can be avoided by becoming spell immune or invulnerable/hidden at the end of the duration.
- The damage is applied as soon as the debuff expires. Dispelling the debuff, however, skips the damage entirely.
- Recasting Soul Burn on the same target refreshes the duration.
- Doing this delays the damage further, and gives more time to deal damage to the target.
- The damage is credited to the last caster of Soul Burn on the target.
- Only considers magical, physical and pure damage (after all reductions). Other sources of health loss are ignored.
- Shares cooldown with Bloodthorn.

Tips[edit]
- Orchid is great against Intelligence heroes as they are dependent on their abilities to deal damage, but it is also effective against heroes with escape abilities like Anti-Mage or Weaver and strong initiation like Faceless Void or Enigma.
- Get the item quickly before the enemy team gets items able to dispel the silence.
Items Synergy[edit]
- You can combine it with an item that provide mana burn like Diffusal Blade or Necronomicon to make your enemy unable to cast a spell after the silence is over.
Trivia[edit]
- The item's name is likely a reference to the weapon of the same name that can be acquired in the 2002 video game Otogi: Myth of Demons.
