Valve is famous for its liquid mechanics, there is a portal based hero incoming, why not add gel based hero too?
GUN
Main mode: Vyper's gun with Viscous alt fire, without explosions. Projectile speed is the same as Viscous alt fire. Basically a gun that shoots liquid.
Alt fire: Holiday's gun but with 75% slower fire rate, consumes triple ammo.
Spell 1:
Concentrated Gel
Fires a small Gel ball that damages the enemies and drags an enemy along with it. [Calico's old cat ability, but it floats in an arc, like Viscous' alt fire].
Spell 2:
Jumping Gel
Throws a ball of blue gel, that creates blue puddle on impact. Enemies that step in the puddle bounce in the air and take 50 damage. If allied hero jumps on the puddle, they recieve extra jumping height. [the distance is twice normal jumping height]. [Viscous puddle punch and splatter packed in one spell]
Spell 3:
Rush Gel
Creates orange gel trail that gives movement bonuses to him and his allies. Allies get bonus move speed and can Slide up hills while on this gel. Mael is affected by Gel all the time the ability is active. (Mechanically this is Kelvin's Ice Path and Vyper slide mixed together. The hero himself becomes Vyper but for a limited time).
Duration - 5 seconds.
Spell 4, ultimate:
Moist overload
Creates a huge puddle of green gel around himself. Enemies are slowed down for 1% for each drop they collided with. Maximum slow - 40% [Up to 100% with upgrades].
[Creates a huge minefield (that consists of small liquid drops), and each time enemy steps on a drop, the drop dissapears and the enemy is slowed down. There is a huge amount of this drops, so it stacks really fast. Mechanically this is AOE Keeper of the Light's Solar Bind, but if you are careful enough, you can escape]
Extra ability, spell 1 can be replaced with this one.
Spell ?:
Liquid Barrage
Shoot a gel in front of you, that damages and pushes the enemies away. If enemy is pushed against the wall, they take additional damage.
[Kelvin's arctic ray that pushes enemies away. Deals less damage, but if the enemy is against the wall, the damage is 130% of Kelvin's ray. Mechanically this is similar to Overwatch Roadhog ultimate, but a small AOE]
Basically the whole kit is a mix of Vyper and Kelvin, with different item builds he can be either carry, or a support. Some gun bonuses can be added to his Spell 2 or Spell 3.
References (yep, the second one is Ghostbusters cartoon, but the design is just right, if you replace backpack with a canister)
