Renders Paradox untargetable for five seconds. During this time, they can perform actions as a controllable "Live-Action Replay" that is only visible to his team. Actions taken in this form will have no immediate effect.

On activation, Paradox will reset all elements of the game (except for the cooldown of this ability) to the way they were eight seconds before.

This ability will spawn untargetable Replays of all units on the map that will copy the exact actions the "originals" did the first time, this time alongside the originals.

Players will be unable to interact with Replays, but if players are caught in the abilities of enemy Replays, they will receive the full effect.

If a neutral item dropped during the time that is being replayed (including items from Roshan) the "replayed" versions of those unit kills will not drop items, but they will still drop them once killed in reality.

Bounties earned by replays through kills on one another will not be awarded to the players in the current timeline.

Bounties earned by replays through kills on players in the current timeline will be awarded to their respective players.
