Why don't we give the hero a transmute orb skill too? 50% chance to cash in on 5000 gold per unit, costs no mana -.-

Nap.Hack i think you should make your own hero not post an idea...
Hero was already made when i posted this, it was just more time consuming than expected to create a test map...
Plus some tooltip fixes had to be made yet I still decided to publish the wall of text already

I actually made my own map for the contest but ive used it for a few requests now.

at the chaos mage suggestion:
I consider it kinda weak...
Just bear this in mind:
death coil deals 1000 damage at lev 6
your skill deals 1-1200 damage at lev 6

so basically, your skill has a 20% chance of dealing more damage than a death coil while on the other side, there is the possibility of it not even scratching the hit point regeneration rate of a hero.
if you wanna create something random, rather make it 750-1200 at lev 6 or sth like that yet I kinda feel, so much random stuff will lead to frustration rather than really make some1 having fun playing frenzy.
"Wtf, mah roulette always hits that gay ass ava on full hp!"
"Wtf? Your fukken roulette killed mah hero liek 5 times in a row, fukken lukker!!!!"
"Wtf? mah chaos bolt didn't even scratch teh 100 damage mark at liek 10 subsequent lev 6 casts!!!"
"Wtf? I just died? 2 casts above 1150 in a row? omfg"
and so on
your skill is just too much random. as for your ultimate, it's kind of a global cattle ulti which is best placed when there is some clash at mid and all heroes are low hp from that starfall which didn't get cancelled in time etc.
But just remember: there are at least 12 heroes on the map.4 to 5 of them will have hitpoints where your ult will be waste, like 5 more will not die from the ult directly yet will be forced to tp and only 2 other guys might eventually die from it, even worse, if it's some farmer in some remote base who just drops to 1 hp by your ult, raking in a ton of cash for that team rather than for you.

I do agree with the chaos bolt but the ult WAS TOOOO COOL

My original idea for Roulette was to make it be an auto kill, but I changed it to be similar to CB due to that possibly being imbalanced. Remember it can kill your own or your allies heroes as well.

CHAOS MAGE: DOWNLOAD IT HERE

So far has only 2 skills, their probably imba, but its just to give you guys an idea. Have fun!

SKILL 1: Chaos Bolt - Summons a bolt of chaos that can heal a friendly unit or damage an enemy unit for a random amount of damage. The maximum amount of damage increases per level.
LEVEL 1 - 1-200 healed/damage
LEVEL 2 - 1-400 healed/damage
LEVEL 3 - 1-600 healed/damage
LEVEL 4 - 1-800 healed/damage
LEVEL 5 - 1-1000 healed/damage
LEVEL 6 - 1-1200 healed/damage

SKILL 2 (this can either be an ultimate or lower its values and make it a regular skill): Roulette - Picks a random hero on the map and deals massive damage to it. The damage increases per level.
LEVEL 1 - 1000 damage
LEVEL 2 - 2000 damage
LEVEL 3 - 3000 damage


aka cb.

i like the idea of playing a hero whose damage output is based on chance

...Blademaster?

Meh, the hero is just an idea. I was thinking about it how about an ability that applied a random buff to an allied unit or a random debuff to an enemy unit. Chaos Bolt could also stun the target if its an enemy for a random amount of time, 1-6 seconds, 1 second per level.

Also, I was thinking of abilities that dealt damage based on how many units a player has, or their level.

just compare it to dotas chaos knight.
Stun time:
1-2 sec
1-3 sec
1-4 sec
2-4 sec

and then guess why it is that way.

Trying not to make it too imba, but I guess that this could work...

1-2 sec
1-3 sec
1-4 sec
2-4 sec
2-5 sec
3-6 sec

Just throwing out ideas mostly at this point, balancing and numbers can be dealt with later. Its not too hard to make the skills, then have people check them out and comment, get feedback, and go from there. That goes for Chaos Bolt and Roulette as well. Just trying to get peoples opinions.

Forget my last hero; it is too hard to balance as the skill are pretty situational. Coupled with a strong tech and high def up or an ally with a heal, his frenzy absolutely rocks while else it is rubbish.
With many AoE nukers on the enemies teams, it's rubbis...

Furthermore, his passive gets affected by armor which makes it really hard to balance; on the one hand, it absolutely rapes with a decent armor reduction and on the other hand, any high armor tech such as orc will laugh over the 200 dmg physical damage he can unleash while it will absolutely rape vs elf etc.

His hp removal souds nice on paper yet even with some tweaking, it's absolutely devastating with nukers or a strong tech yet it is pretty useless without.

And his ulti is pretty much more situational than the most situational skill in the goddamn game as of now.

So I decided to scrap it and start from zero yet again, the result will be psted tomorrow when I have created a map i consider suitable for testing!

Anyway, here is a sneak peek(note the color theme of the spells ):

Hi

It's me again Ba(e)ron

I also got an idea for a hero and he is based on the Black death from the 14 century in europe
I wondered that there is no hero based on poisen in footy so I thought lets just try to get a poison hero into footy

Heroname: Black Death

Heromodel: Acolyte or Lich

Name: Back in the 14 century

Attribute: intelligence

Function: Farmer/Supporter


Skill 1: Plague Aura

effect: Adds poison dmg and a plague cloud (like the one from the aborminations in the singleplayer) when they die which reduces armor instead of dealing dmg.


Skill 2: Rats

creates a contagioned granary which spawns rats which can bloodlust themselves (based on clockwerk factory)


Skill 3: Tribute to the Black Death

life drain with aoe



Ultimate: Pest

It's actually a weak bladestorm which causes massive poisen damage. While you cast it you fly so you can move over hostile armies.


My English just sucks so you don't have to complain about my writing.

Hey, my Thief hero idea has a poison spell too!
I'll repost it:

Thief

Poison Dagger - Adds poison to your melee (dagger) attack which deals damage over time. Passive skill. Doesn't stack with itself.
Higher levels = More damage done.

Invisibility - Makes you invisible for a short period of time.
Higher levels = Increased duration.

Zeal - Quickly attacks multiple adjacent enemies. Can be set to autocast.
Higher levels = Increased amount of enemies and increase in attack speed.

Steal - Steals a random item from a hero's inventory.
Higher levels = decreased cooldown.


Note: Zeal and Poison Dagger are obviously stolen from Diablo 2.
