Hero Details
CORPUS ABILITIES
SOMNAMBULISM (HEROIC PERK)
Enemies in close proximity to Corpus for more than 5 seconds fall into a dreaming trance for 2 seconds. This trance marks enemies, but they are otherwise unaffected until Corpus acts. Corpus’ nightmare goat items & abilities are more frightening while enemies are asleep.
BLEATING SHRIEK (A)
Corpus lets out a shriek that deals crystal damage in a short radius around him, applies a mortal wound to each target and refreshes the dream trance on enemies. Sleeping enemies receive 20% more damage from the shriek and goat power-infused items.
HORROR SPIRAL (B)
Corpus gouges the target with his spiraled horns and sticks to the target while it moves for 2.2 seconds. Enemies may drag Corpus but cannot free themselves until the duration expires. Sleeping enemies receive 10% more damage from the gouge and goat power-infused items.
WAKING NIGHTMARE (Ultimate)
Corpus plunges all sleeping enemies (globally) into a waking nightmare, causing them to lose control and attack the nearest ally for 3 seconds. A sleeping enemy with no ally nearby will inflict damage on itself for the duration of the nightmare. Following this duration, all enemies awaken (trance removed).

High Cooldown for Repeat Nightmares
Corpus’s main damage comes from abilities, so cooldown is part of any core build. While four clockworks is well over the cooldown cap, building extra lets the enemy know that you know how much stronger you are than them. After the second clockwork, most teams surrender in sheer terror.

Dream-Piercer
CORE:
Like a Flash
This build is best out of jungle, where Corpus streaks out of the bushes to lock down and destroy enemies. Multiple boots lets you activate multiple dashes, and never lets enemies predict exactly how or when you will pierce their dreams.

CORE:
Utility and Intimidation
The win condition for this build is to occupy the enemy team with frustrating teamfights while candied minion waves slow-push to victory. Use
, your teammates should carry plenty of
s to stay topped up during very long teamfights. Playing this strat correctly leads to very long games, as your minions are the main source of objective damage. Often results in surrenders, demoralized opponents, and even uninstalls.

Corpus Playstyle Tips
Corpus’s damage is amplified by the desire for revenge, so in teamfights, always focus Kestrel first.

Corpus synergizes well with Vox, who has liked goats since he was a boy.

, and some defense to survive, you’d get it, then combo your A for 4 seconds of sleep… Then 
the A for another two. That’s pretty nice. I could see him being a
