Pudge throws his hook towards a target point and drags back the first unit it touches. Deals damage to enemy units.
Level 1 - 90 damage / 800 distance
Level 2 - 120 damage / 900 distance
Level 3 - 240 damage / 1000 distance
Level 4 - 360 damage / 1100 distance
The chain breaks if Pudge is dead or goes too far from the hook.

Well I should have looked in spell section first before I made a meat hook of my own. I would probably base it on yours, but I have a bad habit of reinventing the wheel in everything I do, heres my version:
Hook Head
Chain Element
Example of my version of "meathook" in Naval Battle
The chain head is a projectile dummy unit
Each chain is a locust dummy unit added into unit group
My system is somewhat much more ridiculously complex that yours, that it relolates the chain when if the caster moves after starting dragging, since each chain element is a dummy. However that happens when it starts dragging the target. But I made it only MPI
