Tranquility?

First, set the targets allowed to enemy, ...
Next, you set the amount healed to a negative number
Finally, every X seconds you decrease the mana of units near the caster...
Alternativelly you can temporary add a brilliance aura with negative mana regeneration to the caster

Eleandor, when a creep dies you wont get the gold, just pointing out.

Starfall then
But if you want to make a real mana burn (like doesnt do damage if unit doesnt have mana)
and make that rain randomly
I can create a rain of manaburn spell based from Thunder Strike which you can find at spells section (still in moderator quene I guess)

 

[Just_Spectating]

its not mana burn, its mana drained from hero over time Spell loop
EDIT: wait, nm

Use immolation, and change the art into monsoon rain. Then edit the buffs so they look different, and finally, add a temp negative brilliance aura when activated.

Or use a fan of knives ability which, when used, gives a temp ability based on permanent immolation with monsoon rain art for a limited time, as well as the negative brilliance aura. You can set a trigger so that the level of the Permanent Immolation based ability's level is the same as the level of the ability.

Base the ability off of tranquility and set all of its values to zero

With triggers, make a spell that would create a dummy to cast starfall as long as you are channeling tranquility

perhaps it's easier to simply base the spell off starfall then? (like oxigen said)

 

[Altazen]

Eleandor's right. I like my idea though, since you still get to move while channeling.

Meh. I think it should be made like the following.

Base it off tranguility, remove everything but set it a buff.
X = Number of times repeated.
Y = Repeat interval.

Event: Unit starts channeling an ability
Condition: If ability being cast equal to ManaBurnRain
Trigger: For each integer a from 1 to X do
If then else
If casting unit has buff [ChannelingManaburnRain] equal to true
Unit group: Pick all units in range (350?) of location (Unit position of unit) Matching (Owner of Matching unit is an enemy of Owner of Casting unit and Matching unit's mana maximum is greater than 0)
Unit - Create unit (Create dummy unit at height of 300 over picked unit)
Unit - Add Ability (Add mana burn to last created unit)
Unit - Issue order targeting a unit (Order last created unit to Demon Hunter - Mana burn picked unit)
Wait Y seconds.

This way it doesn't damage units with no mana, does display the numbers correctly, and displays green lightning coming from the sky. Unit created should be dummycaster-unit, with locust ability, no model and so on.
