PRO'S

- Good Disables

- Good agility growth
- Can potentially became a potent Snowball
- High damage Burst with accelshot with no chance to miss after getting aghanims

CONS

- Weak laning phase with atrocious stats early game.
- Item and Level reliant dying could offset your snowballing capability
- Low Mana
- Lack of good escape mechanism.
- Getting silenced will cripple him severely,

Good Againts

Faceless Void
- Faceless Void's skills is mostly useless on Kino making Kino a hard counter to him

Spectre
- Accel shot armor ignoring properties counters spectre in the late game.

Terrorblade
- Terrorblade does not enjoy the armor ignoring abilities of kino as well as his ultimate because if its well timed it could prevent terrorblade from casting sunder.

Bristleback
- Bristleback is hard countered by accel shot as it will ignore bristleback's passive.

Any other Squishy heroes
- Kino will have a good time bursting heroes with low hp down.

Bad Againts
Phantom Lancer
- Kino limited magazine + needs to use accel shot to do damage in early-mid game could cause him to get overwhelmed by PL

Spectre
- If got caught isolated spectre will demolish Kino making it a double edged sword

Riki
- Riki invisibility can catch Kino off guard as Kino doesnt have any escape ability making him a easy kill.

Anti Mage
- Anti Mage could dominate Kino in early-mid game as he is reliant on Accel shot.

Any Intelligence nuker
- Low HP + Low magic armor spells doom for Kino

Any Illusion Spammer
- Kino cant deal much AOE damage causing him to get overwhelmed real quick.

Any hero that could summon units
- same reasoning like illusion spammers.

Winter Wyvern
- Winter curse can easily kills kino as he is very frail
- Artic burn allows winter wyvern to harass Kino while staying at a safe distance

Viper
- Viper harassing ability causes kino's laning phase to become even more difficult. This could cause kino to be offline for a long time

Good With
Faceless void
- his level 25 talent allows him to move inside chronosphere. Same goes otherwise as faceless void can move in time freeze making them having a good synergy wirh eachother.

Earthshaker
- Earthshaker could counter heroes that is used to counter Kino with echo slam making him a good ally.
- Fissure can save kino when he got caught in a gank.

Axe
- Axe call could be a good tool of engagement for Kino.
- Berserker call can also save Kino when he got caught in a gank.
- Culling blade can finish off low hp opponentz who got nuked with accel shot.

Jakiro
- Time freeze allows jakiro spell to do massive damage with extended time.

Shadow Demon
- Shadow demon could save Kino easily.
- Shadow poison + Accel shot = High nuking capabilities.

Hello this is the first time im in this forrum and i would like to post some of my heroes idea. Im a big fan of moba games especially dota and league. I played dota before but not rlly good at it, this is the first hero i published in this forrums i have tons of hero idea saved on my phones memo and im thinking to publish some of them later.

I randomly thought of this hero when im bored one day and this is my first hero idea. His name came from a character of the same name from a comicbook/light novel. I got inspired by a few book and anime while making the concept of this hero.

Well thats just a short note hope we can get along it this forum Its nice meeting you all here.

- Edit: 19th May 2020, added innate passive, bonus aghanims ability as well as revamped talent tree and renamed Hourglass bomb into Stasis Blast. Also added Lore for Kino.

- Edit: 20th may 2020, added a list of Kino's counters as well as heroes that has good synergy with him.

- Time Warriors grants Kino the ability to mpve inside Chronosphere.
- Time freeze will freeze the duration of a spell but the spell will still take effect during the frozen time. This makes spells such as Alchemist acid became a potent damage dealer.
- Kino is based off the character with the same name from the light novel Kino's Journey.
- Unlike the kino in kino's journey, Kino is a male.
