    Hero concept: Prana (with art and diagrams!)

    Kog'Maw is so twenty-aughts. If any unsettling barely-humanoid heroes are coming I'm betting on lifestealer or weaver. But that and the missing ult aside, very cool playable Alien's alien: Maybe take something like Chaos Knight's Phantasm to crux enemies between an early lategame deathpush & a...

    Item: SpellCounter

    Best fantasy I see is still Jambug, a Mirage-scarab-ish projectile released from a large jar one pulls from their pocket & opens. But denying a full cooldown would be too heavy (even at T4) against those balanced like Dynamo, so here's a more fair T3 version in Silence Glyph's (that can take a...

    Wrath Pitch (an ACME finbomb)

    A discrete click between a firecracker startup T0 (secondary daze-ish def) scaling to a 'decent' T1 before a heavy-caliber reload foley signals the non-scaling mushroom cloud before the final T2 on the egg timer debuffs for ~10% weapon damage (actual flash but not?) - debuff's visual could be a...

    T4 Brewmaster ult for all

    Clowns picked up a lot of malice when we learned how to imagine them holding handguns. Here's an attempt to use that unsettlingly weighty symbol: DotA's Rubick comes in as an alternate character one briefly swaps to (the gun is a green-lantern-summoned toon-town tommy- and three basic abilities...

    Enigma (& Storm Spirit dbfusion for Lash)

    On reflection Enigma might be a miss. Last ditch this kit is instead a "Brewmaster ult for all" that lets everybody be Rubick: A no-stats T4 blue item swaps on a cooldown of some minutes one's health, model, & abilities out for some seconds or until 'death' - There is no ultimate, Horizon Fold...

    Support Healer idea

    Those are some strong numbers and weak stats. The second can get a buff and the first can feel better (for 'got' enemies) if the healing boost is only for a window on an activation

    [Hero] Fencer- Deadlock's version of Genji

    This is a lot of resonance short of a full power fantasy: How is this person 'pulling off' deflecting bullets? Or turning invisible? That art and these mechanics make me want to ask: Why didn't this person apply their skills to gain such mastery over a gun? My suggestion is add X-men's...

    Brosnan the Boxer: Fight'em "Fair" in a Melee Duel to the Death

    I can hear the v Lash trashtalk lines already! But Lick Wounds & Harry don't feel like much more than one's "go in" and "got out" buttons. And boxing movies' "old dog meaner tricks" trope is unexplored: I want H's upgrades to reduce its cooldown with parries & end its duration with regen plus a...

    Sixteen - Concept Art

    Paul Revere's ghost! Nice & spicy top-down but these mechanics lack enough ways for one playing them to create strong story moments. Like the take-me-instead Emancipate resonates (every patriot loves a martyr) but the ult is too strongly aimed at combining with it: They play strongest by lying...

    Hero Concept: Icarus

    With bias, I like HL2-Fast-Zombie-with-a-shotty more as a bug than as a bird. And with great irony IDK how an enemy should attack this besides on forums. Some takes on adding punishability: - Phoenixperson: Guns+healing is weird, but a flock of feather-sized baby phoenixes can keep this from...

    Mambo Brigitte (Voodoo Priestess)

    This isn't my power fantasy to go poking holes in & boy wouldn't the character improve this cast but every power fantasy needs to clearly signal when & how enemies should punish: Otherwise the balanced mechanics play flat. This lacks both a gun & such signaling.

    Make Kinetic Dash purple basic T2

    Keep Arcane Surge's name in color & give the title's to Melee Charge. Icon goes to Hollow Point Ward 'Balanced' E-shift is a tent-pole looking for ye olde sheepstick: Pick a real curse pair for T3 and/or hey look

    Hero: Jacket the shapeshifting Poltergeist

    One last coat ** Wrong forum really, this is game map etc. UI's in the items. Throw in: Overpriced heal-swill, fight-me voucher (tinylegs dancing-manse PvE kite-quest) & T5 shiny rock Charis is a minimally anthropomorphized secondary shop that sells an extra-UI rune that exchanges control of...

    Hero Concept: Maui

    I hold hope: the question is what comes between Infernus & a water elemental? A wilson & two Odin-crows orrery-ing around mehaps Here's another probably-not
