SKILLS
Young Again
Upon death, Diggie reverses time and turns to egg form, in which he can continue to move around and gains a new set of skills. He cannot be targeted in egg form and will revive after a period of time.
Auto Alarm Bomb
Cooldown: 8–5 s by level
knockbackslow
Diggie flings an owl alarm to the target location. The alarm will then remain stationary for 25 seconds or until it reacts to the first enemy in range, chasing them and exploding upon collision. The explosion deals 500–600 (+100% MP) magic damage to nearby enemies and slows them by 30%.
Diggie gains 2 stacks of Dangerous Sparks each time an enemy hero is hit by the explosion (up to 60 stacks), each stack increasing the skill's damage by 1%. Diggie loses half the stacks upon death, but can gain 1 stack of Dangerous Sparks each time his skill hits an enemy hero when in the egg form.
Up to 5 owl alarms can exist at the same time.
Reverse Time
Cooldown: 15–10 s by level
pullslow
Diggie marks a target enemy hero for 4 seconds and pulls them back to their previous location after the duration ends, dealing 150–400 (+100% MP) magic damage and slowing it by 80%.

BEST TEAMMATES
HOW TO PLAY DIGGIE
Stack your bombs in bushes to zone out enemies and provide vision. Always save your Ultimate to purify massive crowd control spells like Atlas or Tigreal's Ultimates.
HOW TO PLAY AGAINST DIGGIE
- Do not waste crowd control during Time Journey — it does not land then.
- After the ultimate you have 64–76 seconds without it — force fights then.
HIDDEN MECHANICS
What the in-game descriptions do not tell you: crowd-control rules and verified skill quirks. How crowd control works →
Young Again- Diggie provides vision on egg form.
- Diggie will receive 75 extra movement speed during egg form.
- There will be a 2-second delay to fully control Diggie after death or revival. Diggie will be vulnerable to attacks 1 second after reviving.
Auto Alarm Bomb- Stacking up Dangerous Sparks for each egg form skills has 1 second cooldown.
- When thrown into an enemy unit, the owl alarm detonates immediately rather than chasing the enemy as a ward.
