Trivia

[edit]
  • The particle effects of Cripple include runes resembling the Elvish scripts from The Lord of the Rings, a novel by J.R.R. Tolkien (specifically the alphabet bee or umbar in Tengwar).
  • The item is sometimes referred to as the "Rod of Aui", after pro player Aui_2000, who popularized buying the item on many heroes.
