I thought this was a nice counterpart to Dark Lady, since vision really isn't utilized at all in DOTA and just recently with Dark Lady, in HoN.

Feel free to comment.

Illumination sounds like a very interesting ability. It also seems like one of those 'always use' spells if you have enough mana/are in healing pool at your base.

I like the concept, however the spells need a lot of reworking and they need to be better clarified.

Blinding Light - The blind effect needs to be better clarified than just a percentage. No mana cost?

Solar Flare - What makes this spell different from every other aoe nuke? I also think that the starting range is too short and the end range is too far. No mana cost?

I have a suggestion for this spell, you can give it a nuke and maybe add a fear effect. The fear would make the enemies scatter uncontrolably. Since illuminous is a support hero this could cancel channel spells and interrupt casting times and totally **** with your opponents, possibly making them run in the wrong direction, into a tower.

Guiding Light - I like this ability not much I can say for it but to reduce the cooldown a bit. Maybe 75/60/45/30

Illumination: I like!
