Spirit Burn stats, win rate and best heroes

Dealing significant spirit damage to an enemy within 5s causes an explosion dealing damage and a burn to that enemy. While burning, enemies take damage over time and receive reduced healing. The cooldown is per enemy, so each target can only be burned once per cooldown. Deals half-damage on non-heroes.
