Recently, I've been playing Lina as default support / mid. I was going to get the Arcana when... "What the hell 24 dollars for a Arcana that changes on spell and gives her fancy hair? Compared to the Terrorblade, PA, and CM Arcanas, this is pretty lame. they really need to have it affect all the spells since they have so much potential for looking totally amazing.

I think the Arcana should be either have new voice and icons and spell effects OR They completely remake it and turn it into a white-hot theme like her Laguna Blade, giving her flames are blue-white, including the hair and eyes. THAT'S 24 dollars worth of Arcana

This is valve. They'll release an arcana for Bane before they update any arcana without a massive vote change such as void remodel (which was mostly pointless)
Your new diet for heroes; You will need 4 wards (cuz wards taste better), 1 set of tangoes, 1 mango, 1 cheese.
With this you can make a nice Tango Mango Cheese platter. You can wash this all down with a nice bottle of water, Can be flavoured with red, green, yellow, blue, purple AND GOLD!
Caution: Taking roshan 3 times is required.

I think her arcana sucks. Maybe the worst arcana in the game. Honestly for me the arcana Lina is actually worse than the basic Lina without items.

The concept is ******ed. I mean pretty much every Lina set went for the "cute girl with fancy clothes and flaming hands" route and it was pretty sweet.
And then comes the "Human torch" arcana that destroys the concept completely.

From this : http://dota2.gamepedia.com/File:Cosmetic_icon_Light_of_the_Solar_Divine.png

And the spell animation is really...meh. Seriously her common sets are really good but her arcana is garbage.

Volvo pls. Remodel or riot :)

As for me, Arcana is better than sets, most sets suck. Though hairstyle could really use a remodel.

Techies arcana? PFFFT please. Cheap Angry Birds marketing. Wonder how much Volvo got from Rovio for that.

Y'know. I kinda want atleast one arcana to pull a LoL and actually give the character new voice lines.

Yeah Lina arcana...Least worth of all the arcanas. Might aswell just be an immortal, MAYBE a legendary.

It's anticlimactic, it doesn't fit at all into the game. Remember what they said about their policy about adding items? If they don't fit the general feel of the game, they won't add it. They lied. They do everything for money. Techies arcana is the solid proof.

...you mean like Legion Commander?

Also best arcana Terrorblade arcana, on the basis of content. New skin, new sounds, new voice, custom kill animation, prismatic gem, new icons and animations. Baller as ****!
There are two kinds of people in the world; those who can count, and those who can't.
