I have a good idea for a Orb. Orb of Shock.

Orb of Shock
-When attacking a Tech unit it slows them down and does 75 plus damage to tech units.
-Adds plus 10 damage.

Like a eletric shockwave that stops tech stuff like in real life =). I have got of good ideas for items. The shop could have two Orbs that would be cool.
