Glacius is a lumbering warrior who hinders his enemies mobility while dishing out some serious damage in return. While vulnerable to high mobility heroes and backline ranged carries, Glacius is capable of weathering the storm and ensuring a cold reception for his enemies demise.
Glacius’s Heroic Perk is Frostbite
Whenever Glacius strikes an enemy that’s been SLOWED or ROOTED, he deals an additional 25-120 (Levels 1-12) (+120% crystal power) damage with his basic attacks and abilities. If Glacius hinders an enemy’s movement his ability cooldowns are reduced by 1.0 seconds.
When Glacius buys Frostburn, all of his abilities gain an additional effect

Glacius’s ULTIMATE is Glacial Cryptum

While in STASIS, Glacius is immune to all damage and crowd control; but cannot use basic attacks, items or Freezing Strike. Glacius can activate Permafrost while in STASIS with the ability’s effect lasting 1 second longer and dealing increased damage.
