Ability Name: Skeleton Release
Mana Cost: 50% of the current Mana
Rank/Level: B - Level 5
Effect: Mantis Roach's Defense drops by 90%, but in return his base speed will increase by 4 times and his Attack will increase by 2 times. The effect will last until the fight ends.
Description: Mantis Roach's Insect wing like armor disappears as well as the pieces or armor on the sides of its head.
Drawbacks: Since Mantis Roach's Defense drops by 90%, he is really vulnerable. Granted, he will become really fast and stronger, but if the opponent lands a hit or 2 they can easily get the upperhand.

Ability Name: Swarm Call - Shield
Mana Cost: 50
Rank/Level: D - Level 3
Effect:Mantis Roach summons a swarm of small insect like creatures. The swarm will completely surround Mantis Roach and act like a shell/shield for 50 seconds. The swarm shield will block any non-beam/laser like ranged attack and any splash damage from explosions will be taken as if Mantis Roach's Defense was 90% higher. If the opponent would attack the swarm shield with any body part like punching, kicking, etc, his/her HP will go down by 5% every second he/she touches the swarm (the moment they touch the swarm will count as 1 second) and while touching the swarm his/her body will be slowed down by 50%.
Description: Mantis Roach puts his hands together and slowly moves them away from each other while a dark green sphere of moving insect like creatures appears in between his palms. The creatures will start to leave the sphere but the sphere won't seem to shrink for 3 seconds. In these 3 seconds enough insects leave the sphere and start to fly around Mantis Roach to make a completely closed sphere around Roach. After 53 seconds from activation, the insects will stop flying around Roach and disappear.
Drawbacks: If Roach is hit while the shield/shell is still being formed, the skill/ability will fail and Roach won't be able to use it for 2 posts. This ability has a cooldown of 2 posts after the ability has stopped.

Ability Name: Piercer Assault
Mana Cost: 30
Rank/Level: E - Level 1
Effect: Mantis Roach will create a sharp green aura around his weapon or hand and then start to stab and pierce the opponent at a high speed with his weapon or hand all over the opponent's chest or, if they are faced away from him, their back. Roach will continue to stab or 'pierce' the opponent for about 20 seconds, leaving countless tiny holes in the opponent and some bigger holes.
Description: Roach's arm starts to glow a dim green light and his weapon will get a green aura around it that will make the weapon even sharper. He pulls his arm back, pointing his weapon at the opponent and then thrusts his arm with weapon forward, while pulling it back at high speed after the weapon has pierced the opponent to thrust it forward again, doing this over and over again to keep piercing the opponent. While using the skill/attack it will look like he is stabbing/piercing the opponent with countless swords at the same moment due to the high speed of the attack.
Drawbacks: It is a close ranged attack and Roach won't be able to move while using it, so by keeping distance this ability can easily be avoided. Also, if the opponent has a big enough and sturdy enough weapon (like a strong steel broadsword) or shield to block Roach's weapon then it will make it much easier to block the attack and leap back getting out of range.
