Description

The Zenos is a single target homing missile that applies Slow. Its effect on the primary target is great and it also leaves a lingering spherical zone that continuously applies slow to any unit its radius.

Tactics and Strategy

With the immense slow damage it applies to a single target along its unique homing capabilities and range equal to the Quake. The Zenos can be used to help catch enemy key targets from a safe distance. However, the lingering zone that it spawns can also make it difficult to follow up with your own units, as the zone affects every unit inside. Maneuvering around it is advised. Also keep in mind the slow speed of the missile, which can slightly delay a prepared attack but also give the enemy room to react.
