Basically his ultimate is like Lifestealer's infest or HoN Empath's ultimate 'As One' but the hero is actually still vulnerable and can still shoot. They just can't move directly unless they have taken over a trooper.
So when they are infested onto a creep or hero, they act as a form of protection and apply their shadow texture on the hero. They can still shoot so there's like a sentry gun that protrudes from the unit.
If an enemy stuns the target or something like Lash does his ult on the target it will pull the hero from the infested targeted protecting the unit that was infested.
When infested on a trooper, they would technically have '2 lives' in that an enemy has to eliminate the trooper before they can target the hero or perhaps they still take damage when infested.
Also another strange idea where they can self-cast to infest themselves incase they do not have a unit to infest.
This could be problematic in that troopers have no dash animation but perhaps when infesting a trooper/neutral creep you temporarily 'give up' that ability.
This hero should be able to cast other abilities and items while infested, tormentor pulse should also work - although that may encourage bad afk gameplay. However, since they can always be stunned off the target, they will have to be wary of any situation - perhaps at level 1 they could even be punched off the target unit.
