Charge Ability

I'm trying to make it so when a unit casts this spell on an enemy unit, it basically pulls them into that unit, and stuns them for 2 sec.

Thanks

it sounds more like a pull ability than charge...-.-
event- ability casted
action-move targeted unit to triggering unit position (this work instantly though, if you want the pull over time, just move target to intermediate positions)
use storm bolt as base ability for the stun

I meant the caster gets pulled to the enemy, like a charge, not like pudge's hook.

So something like Storm Spirit's new ability in DotA?

Something like that. I just made a somewhat charge ability, but it moves instantly, and I'm trying to make him move over time.

What I mean by 'charge' is when I cast it, the unit who casted the spell goes torward the enemy he clicked on, and stuns him for x seconds.

If you've played WoW, I'm basically trying to make the warrior ability off the same name.

Use a normal trigger that has an event of a unit begins casting etc.

Then have another initially disabled trigger that moves Caster to a position with polar offset ... maybe you should look up "slide" triggers; the effect will be the same as you would want to achieve. There are plenty of triggers here in TH that has sliding triggers that you could use.

Ah yes I know what you mean. So it's more like Spirit Breaker's Charge of Darkness. Well close enough to it.

all you need to change is swap triggeringunit and targeted unit around for the charge ability, also, it seems more like dota spiritbreaker ultimate
set caster to move to region with polar offset for the intermediate positions
