First page... will be back soon with comments

I'm back... Spotlight & hero are ok, but since you're putting them out so quickly (every 2 weeks), they're losing both novelty and originality, so i'd suggest to take a good look at the suggestion polls you posted in game. Ravenor's spells seem interesting and i like the visual look of his "Electrical Feedback" spell, but otherwise it seems that he's just a purplish muscular guy with a mask... I know you want to make more money fast, but if you'll keep making bland-looking heroes every two weeks, each one in a different color (Ellonia blue, Riftwaker purple, Bramble green, Ravenor pink etc.), you'll lose more than you'll gain imho. My personal suggestion: work on the next hero a bit more and bring him out later, if you can afford it.

Btw - Viole or whoever voiced the spotlight: while i like your work, the Ravenor spotlight sounded a little bit "forced" to me in comparison with the earlier spotlights, where you sounded more "natural"... i don't know if it's just me or anyone else noticed it, so i just figured i'd mention it.

Are you serious? He's like, the only prime>alt avatar hero there ever was imho.

Kinda off-topic, but will we get another hero next week? Cause Bramble release date is settled to 15/06.

Did anyone see the Alt in the video? Cuz I sure didn't :/

I wasn't able to include it since it wasn't ready while we were making it.

How can i have the river of the spotlights??

[Rikomi]

I don't know what's more embarrassing; this generic hero or a skill called ball lightning.

Okay kids, this time the stun and blink are part of the same ability, are you happy now?

[Sk0ld]

Had so much trouble hearing stuff through the new "sexymodeon" voice. I really liked the old giggley style better. Aside from that Ravenor looks interesting.

Will you post a video with the alt?

[Kohun]

the ending is really important you cant just make one epic ending avenger style then not do another epic/funny ending next video, you have to choose to either incorperate it into all of the videos or none of them

on the hero looks like a beefy caster, just like midas. time will tell what role he falls into.

[RaViJ]

Will you post a video with the alt?

It's not all that ready still actually. It will be up for all to see when the patch comes.

I enjoy the new hero every fortnight. Gives me a reason to spend money and support the game i enjoy. Its fun to have such new content on a regular basis.

Yea i've never bought EA heroes before Riftwalker. But those last 3 new heroes (Ravenor being the last) are so awesome i had to support the game with coins.

So he's being billed as a carry, but his steroids deals bonus magic damage, meaning any time he's fighting an enemy carry with shrunken head active, its doing nothing for him, and since its triggered on hit, he can't kill supports with void talisman up either since they have 100% evasion and it won't proc. I think he'll still have a decent presence during teamfights, but carrying, I doubt it.

Can't win 'em all though, Bramble is still really good fun.

[[IaF]Skyve]

since they have 100% evasion and it won't proc

Not evasion. Physical damage immunity. They will die to anyone carrying a Harkon's Blade too.

Oh boy gotta buy more gold, damn

hahah agreed

You know what... I miss Ms Pudding's voice... and that last spotligh just reinforced that

about the hero, he looks awsome himself, though it's skill sounded stupid. I fell like it's a weak hero that relies on 3rd skill AND enemies focusing him to do any crap. Also. it brough nothing new to the game.

I mean, they just got Maliken's first and added a stun on the end, much like they did with balpha-bramble. Only difference is that they learned to balance something and added a hero-hit condition to port; not that it's hard to achieve that, but at least they put a disadvantage (unlike a bramble's copied skill that had no weakens).

For second skill.... Tb that relies on auto attack to use his lightinings. Really.

3rd skill... why does it feels like an Armadadon, a Legionnaire, a Charged Hammer? Oh yeah, because you attack him and screw yourself up. So let's do it the other way around: you DON'T attack him, and this skill is useless.

Ultimate: have you ever taken a look at the hero-drafts section? There's a thread giving some rules to hero skills, and one of then is: "Avoid forced sinergy. Forced synergy is when one skill adds direct buffs to another without providing standalone benefits, or providing very little standalone benefits.". It may be just me, but this skill provides no benefits on it's own, relies totally on other skills to work.

Aside for those, another Movespeed boosting hero. Another blink hero (for initiation, not for escaping). = another high mobility hero. Yeah... repetition 10, creativity 0. Bye guys, going to the drafts section to post a REAL NEW hero... AN UNIQUE HERO, as OP or weak as it will seem.
