Crossed Measure
A successful basic attack records his approach to one enemy hero. Reposition around that same hero and land a second basic attack from a sufficiently different bearing to deal a capped bonus; standing alone is not the trigger.
Back away or use terrain to deny the second bearing, root him, deny attack vision, or Break him. Grouping helps punish the reposition but does not itself switch the passive off.

Thousand Cuts
Commit to three rapid melee cuts against one visible enemy. He must stay within reach throughout; the sequence grants no invulnerability or automatic chasing.
Move out of reach or interrupt with silence, stun or displacement. Allies can punish him during every cut; Disarm alone does not stop this spell channel.

- Range

- 70 / 100 / 130 per cut; total 210 / 300 / 390
- Sequence
- 1.2 s; a cut beyond 325 cm deals no damage; the channel still uses normal cancellation rules
- Restriction
- No basic-attack procs, untargetability or attack resets
