Notes

• Successfully blinking 1200 distance plays a different sound effect.
• Attempting to blink more than 1200 distance away will result in blinking only 960 distance in that direction.
• Double clicking will blink the player 960 distance in the direction of their fountain.
• Blink is not disabled if the source of hero damage was reduced to zero.
• HP Cost does not disable blink dagger.
