Aldous unleashes his inner energy to enhance his next Basic Attack to deal 200 (+100% Total Physical Attack) (+ 5 per Soul Steal stack) Physical Damage. This attack deals 300% extra Base Damage to minions or creeps. Killing an enemy hero or siege minion with this attack grants 10 Soul Steal stacks, while killing other non-hero units grants 4 stacks (up to 650 stacks). Aldous also gains 5 stacks when a nearby enemy siege minion dies, and 2 stack(s) when any other nearby non-hero unit dies.
