Hm. Maybe use hide unit (caster), and use quick move to the target, then reaper.
I don't know will it work, and I don't know how to really trigger it.

Targets that have been hit by Chain Lightning after the first hit can't be detected.


For more clarification, try to explain your idea in a better way, so a well written Trigger can be posted :3

You will need to make the lightning a custom one.

THe idea is quiet easy:

Use a spell like stormbolt (better a one without stun) and change the projectile to the "mirror effect".

Then use a trigger which picks the targeted hero and then a random unit aroudnt hat target. Then again a new random unit and so on. So you know the last unit and can move the hero to that unit.


EDIT:

I believe there is a frost chain spell int he tool section. It should work the way I explained

couple of problesm with that.



1. that would bounce back n fourth, i want it to hit each target once.

2. i need it to be like chain lightning where theres one projectile that bounces between them, hitting them all each once, but hes so speedy that u cant see his whole body so u can only see the mirror image. I Dont want him to reappear everywhere. All it is is a chain lightning except, the missle ofc, and i want the guy to disapeer at the last target.

3. i dont see the frost chain spell in either tools or spells
