Reworked Lua error in Module:Ability_ID at line 61: Could not find Cargo data for "Soul Catcher".

Captures the soul of enemy units in an area, causing them to lose a percentage of their current health. When the debuff is removed, the units gain half of the lost health back. Units under the effect of Disruption can still be affected by Soul Catcher.

Cast range: 700

Radius: 175/200/225/250

Current health removed: 25%/30%/35%/40%

Duration: 10

Mana cost: 110

Cooldown: 26/24/22/20

Notes: Manipulates health, without causing damage, so it bypasses and ignores any damage reducing, blocking or amplifying effects. Dispelling the debuff returns health as well. Does not affect ancient creeps.
