Native Land takes the concept of Native Terrain (land that is controlled by your team through raising flags) to the extreme. In this 5v5 map, when heroes are on Native Terrain, they are more powerful than on the original Borderlands. So powerful, in fact, that even if your opponents are outleveling you by two to three levels, you can equalize the fight if you’re on Native Terrain.

Here’s the breakdown of the boosts you’ll receive on Native Terrain:

• Speed is up by 5
• Regen of HP and Energy is up by 100%
• Either Strength or Intellect is up by 30% (whichever is higher)
• Incoming damage is reduced by 25%
• Cooldowns are reduced by 40%

Heroes with abilities that can create their own areas of Native Terrain are effective on this map. For example, Maiden/Nymph’s Bewitch ability creates a circle of Native Terrain around herself. Not only will she get the additional Terrain bonuses, but her allies will, too. There are several other heroes with abilities like this, including Quarrier/Rumbler and Warlord/Shogun.
