{{Quotation|[[The Hidden King]]|During the ritual, death is temporary. You will return, but know this: the more powerful you become, the longer you stay out of action when you die. Perhaps use that time to go shopping for when you return to the mortal coil.

'''Death''' occurs when a [[hero]] takes sufficient damage to be reduced to zero health. Upon dying, the player's screen is shaded gray, a death timer is displayed over their hero's icon, [[souls]] are rewarded to heroes who earned a kill or an assist, and other hero or situation-specific events may occur, as detailed below.

As the game progresses, the players will take longer to respawn. The respawn time increases linearly based on the following times:

Revive Tokens are consumed upon a players death, and any further deaths from that player will not consume more. Once all the Tokens are consumed, the entire team will lose access to the mid-boss buff.

Killing a player with a Rejuvenator credit does not appear as a kill in the HUD and does not grant any [[souls]], but it does trigger "on hero kill" effects such as the cooldown reset of {{HeroIcon|Shiv}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Killing Blow}} or the [[stack]] buildup of {{HeroIcon|Grey Talon}}'s, {{HeroIcon|Mo & Krill}}'s and {{HeroIcon|Vindicta}}'s ultimates. The same happens when triggering {{HeroIcon|Victor}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Shocking Reanimation}}.
