Nothl Projection
PASSIVE: No
Dazzle departs his body, traveling through the Nothl Realm as an invulnerable spirit that can cast spells, attack, and use items, leaving his body behind in the world with a visible tether. While active, Dazzle's basic abilities are empowered: Poison Touch hexes enemies, Shallow Grave heals upon expiration, and Shadow Wave has a shorter cooldown. The effect can be ended early, and Dazzle returns to the body at the end.
When Dazzle's spirit is further than 1600 units from the body, the tether will begin to pull him back. The strength of the pull increases with distance.
Dazzle's Soul cannot attack buildings.

Strategy
Use Poison Touch only if you can follow up with few right clicks on the poisoned hero. Only your right clicks will refresh its duration.
If an opponent is surrounded by allied units, you can Shadow Wave those units and deal huge damage.
Use Shadow Wave as Shallow Grave is about to expire to provide a burst of heal.
When in trouble, you can attempt to Shallow Grave yourself and
Town Portal Scroll out.
Avoid showing yourself to opponents at the start of the fight. You are number 1 priority for them to kill.
Purchase
Aghanim's Shard at 15 minute mark later in the game to use your ultimate while stunned to save yourself with Shallow Grave, as well as throw the rest of your spells and right clicks.
With the Nothl Boon facet, look to over heal your front line core when sieging or defending high ground to give them a damage barrier.
With the Poison Bloom facet, try to get four right clicks on an enemy hero affected by Poison Touch to do more damage and make it spread.
Counter Strategy
Avoid being hit by
Dazzle while under effect of Poison Touch. If he has the Poison Bloom facet, move away from him or hide in treelines before he attacks you four times.
Shadow Wave does a lot of damage if you are surrounded by enemy units.
Someone buy a
Spirit Vessel to offset healing from
Dazzle and to finish off the Shallow Graved hero.
Look to focus
Dazzle in teamfights as he is squishy but provides a lot of sustain if left unchecked.
Buy gap closing items to get on top of
Dazzle.
