Basically who Shifty is:

Shifty is a melee agility hero who has NO damage spells... Okay sounds bad right? Except... Shifty is massively item dependant and Heck does he farm like mad! Basically... And he even gets his own shop!!! :D
With Bribery , Thievi'n Tricks and a portable shop shack he is ready to support any team!!!

Backstory:

Shifty was a hobbit like being lost in the unknown... Banished by the other dwarves and hobbits he seeked refuge in small towns.
He befriended a thief that taught him the ways of the black market. Travelling was Shifty's life. Until he found
his real family captured by authorities. He went to his thief friend. THe theif took him under his wing and
learnt him how to dissipear from sight. Shifty swiftly glided over walls and went to the dungeon. A few
bribes and his parents were free! They were reached their home when a mighty warrior kidnapped Shifty , Now
Shifty has to support in an epic battle to escape a death sentance!

R: Blackmarket TradingPassive:
Level 1:Shifty can sell a item for the entire amount of which it was worth
(instead of only getting back 75 gold for healing salve you get 100)
Shifty pays 5% less on all items
Level 2:25% chance to steal 10 gold on hit

Thanks for reading! Please leave feedback :D

His first spell looks cool. My only flaw is if there was a mechanic to prevent true sight were would it end, many new heros could get that. old heros could get it. the spell is balance but the options it opens are not balanced.

His better business looks kind of useless, I mean that is what couriers are for.

Theivin looks like an ability were if you are bad it helps and if you are good it does not. It might have a use in a hard solo lane but as a Farmed cary you should be last hitting 70% of the creeps anyway.

His ultimate is broken, OP, IMBA, Drow tier. The ability to prevent the other cary from attacking you for 40 sec is crazy. All you ahve to do is spend all your gold and you lose nothing.

It is an cool idea but I fell like this hero can not use it abilities (other than its ultimate) to there fullest at once.

Updated! Thanks for suggestions :D

Wow, I like the update. I would play this hero just for his "walls have eyes". Although If I were playing him I would leave it at level 1 to pay less gold.

Was it on purpose that you can get gang life earlier than ever other ultimate?

Other than that I can not wait to see this hero in the game ;)

i feel like stealing half the other player's gold is a little op, but i like everything besides that (imagine fighting someone who has that, you would never have enough money to buy anything)

#2 Update

-Ulti is now only available 1 level earlier then usual since without it he might be a bit too squishy.

-Secret seller:
|Half gold steal removed

Other notes:
|All gold costs have been drastically lowered for obvious reasons...

Righteous. You've got my vote now (idk if my vote counts for anything, but you have it) :D

*High five!*

TY :D

TBH, I don't like the design or the kit you're suggesting. We already have a Geomancer, Meepo. I just think in general, his skills have no synergy, and are a bit lack-luster.

I will give you this though, the Walls Have Eyes ability is very creative, and would be a very good skill to implement in another hero. I take it that it would block stacking camps?

@xCO2

This is a hard support...
Btw , lets remove luna we have female human heroes already! Bad point (geomancer )

Yes blocks stacking camps , Usefull for a quick gank on a jungler if you can organise your team.
