And i cant see in my blog posts or saved blogs. Asked hades and lets just say bug reported...... Annnnnnyyywaaaaayyys
So what is the deal with Abaddon?borrowed time look less like a cheat death and more.like heal.me if you hit me.
You ever wonder why?
How about we attempt to reinvent borrowed time?
Here is mine!
Borrowed time is an instant cast ability that allows Abaddon to come back to the previous HP state 4/5/6 seconds , before casting the ability.
I know it sounds like time walk, but you can cast it while being stunned. And here is the kicker
Borrowed time allows Abaddon to cheat death when it is off cool down and returns him to 4/5/6 seconds previous to his state and allowing him to steal 15/25/35% current HP from his attempting killer.
Looks like borrowed isn't it?.....
Now how about his aghs upgrade?
Casting borrowed time allows Abaddon to heal back 50% of the damage done to his allies 5/6/7 seconds back. Range:900
So your magnus ES, enemy will be thinking ****, we got rekt.Axe, lina, lion are crying right now. Well not axe, he's manly
This abaddon is neither hard support nor a core. He can be considered a late 3rd core that promotes skirmishes and becomes more of a skirmish instigator. He becomes a baller without his aphotic should. He is the one that blurs the line of a lane support and core.
Tanky, making the foe think twice about the strats they will use. He is truly a death cheater
A wandering Lord. Of hell.
So how is this rendition? How would you change borrowed time than it already is? How to make him proactive? Do you have ideas on how he is like he is?
- When
New cooldown scaling 100/90/80.
Lo and behold, the lord of death, now a pub stomping hero that people will insist on play as a carr... oh. Right.
Meanwhile, i am quietly nudging people into posting PA reworks.
Behavioral.psychology in action
Simply giving him a little boost so he's not so completely useless in ganking will fix it. Make
Theae are not posted so as to be actualized in the game as of now. These are ideas That i have in my repository; that somehow make sense and i keep on the lookout for implementing, provided the meta shifts commensurately.
There is nothing wrong with having an OoV on abaddon even now. Having mist coil apply the curse debuff is too strong. Trust me. We can negotiate on half values altho.
Talking about mist coil, dont you think the ability is underwhelming in terms of spam/ mana cost?
I think so, i need to understand the possible repercussions or benefits to the hero.
There is a lot of dynamism in the ability and it should be explored, even if not implementable in game
You know who's on the top of my list?
Lycan. And he's been there far too long. I am racking my brains over him.
Who do you think needs a rework? And dont answer sniper
Take a mix and mash of all his previous abilities (I think he has like 10 abilities that he doesn't currently own).
You could do so much with the morph theme.
Early game potential and physical resistance thanks to Blur, but one heavy nuker and she falls apart. Unless you rush BKB, in which case you have no damage.
Speaking of damage... completely RNG focused.
I suggested a rework a while back that involved making Blur an active that dodged skills, and having her crits reset her ability cooldowns... she'd become a high-skill hero with that, her defenses entirely focused on hitting people to reset Blur to dodge more stuff. Still as all-in as now, but less easily shut down and considerably more interesting to play.
There will be a PA picked and she will bring them to knees
Hopefully it happens, and with the new variant from the Void build :P
Will you join the dark side?
Who do you think needs a rework? And dont answer sniper
Does that even need an explanation? Worst hero concept ever. See, there are badly made dota heroes, but this guy isn't even a dota hero. Should be #1 on your list.
Lame roamer and walking ward. Bounty doesn't play dota, he completely relies on his team to do that. The hero does nothing. He just gives vision and spams track.
If playing Sniper is like playing a ranged creep, playing Bounty is like playing an
Make Bounty do something. Anything. At least give him an aghs that does something.*
And for God's sake do something about that 4 man mid meta.
More like MMR assassin right now. You tried to buff her in 6.87 but you made her dog**** instead. Rework
Techies, Is*best dota hero ever*
That sounds ******edly overpowered and in no way related to the concept around borrowed time. T.T
Still thinking on my own ideas for borrowed time. This idea is good though.
Lets just say that abddon stands in full view but you cant mpuse over to him or issue interacrion commands with him.
Sounds cool, but again, it has feel of shadow dance yeah.
Waiting for your rendition ogre man!
Although OP, the animation of summoning mist from the font of Avernus,sounds cool. And badass.
Let's develop this idea further. I am gonna think on this and post
Why is he a niche pick and how to make him palatable.
Skill cap adjustment or mechanics adjustment. Which is the way to go?
Honestly, I think the hero is in a good spot and just doesn't fit in with the current meta: Tera was right when he talked about giving him a boost to improve his ganking ablity. Currently, his only CC is melee range, and this on a hero who really doesn't want to waste gold on
That said, I don't know if the hero NEEDS to be a ganker: increasing his defensive capabilities could do nicely. Perhaps increase the heal/damage values of
But yeah, I still owe you a re-work of
