Psychic Archon (Imagine a Protoss Archon looking dude) - Designed to be an "easier" hero to play.

Left-click: Shoots a short burst of somewhat-slow moving energy-ball projectiles.

Ability 1: Energy Nova — Active
Creates a burst of energy around you, pushing back all nearby enemy heroes and dealing minor damage.
LVL1: Increases the the amount of pushback.
LVL2: Increases the damage dealt.
LVL3: Gain 1 bar of stamina on cast.

Ability 2:
Directional Shield — Active
Creates a floating transparent-looking shield in front of you, which prevents incoming bullet damage. After it takes too much damage, or after the duration expires, it is destroyed. The shield floats along with you and rotates around you to match whichever direction you're looking. It has a somewhat slow rotational speed though, so you can't just spin around like crazy. Activating while on cooldown will cause the shield to switch, to cover your rear.
LVL1: Increases the speed at which the shield rotates around you.
LVL2: Increases health of shield.
LVL3: Damage the shield takes heals you and anyone around you by a certain % of the damage absorbed.

Ability 3: Mindseeker — Active
Adds a minor curve/homing effect to your left-click for a specified duration. (Think of it as increasing enemy hitbox sizes by 100%)
LVL1: Increased bullet damage while active.
LVL2: Increased base movement speed while active.
LVL3: Adds a minor-stacking movement slow to your bullets.

Ability 4: Psychic Bridge — Active
Target an ally to create a Psychic Bridge with them. The bridge remains for a specified duration. Whenever you activate another ability while Psychic Bridge is active, your ally will immediately do the same ability. (For example, when you activate Mindseeker, both you and your bridged ally will get the homing effect to your left-clicks.)
LVL1: Cast range for Psychic Bridge is increased from melee range to long range (allowing you to use it in-combat much easier.)
LVL2: When you or your bridged ally dies, the other player is healed some amount of life.
LVL3: Duration is infinite. (You can still only bridge to one ally at a time.)

Some additional ideas for this hero:

One of the Psychic Bridges upgrades could divide incoming damage evenly between the two heroes.

I would like the second ability to be something you don't activate pre-combat, since we already have a pre-combat activated ability. This would make it more fun to use with psychic barrier. Maybe it could be a short time high-HP shield?
