Lore

Seventh hell. The final resting place of the most terrible and twisted of souls. To bring these souls to justice is one simply known by all as 'The Reaper'. The reaper, face hidden under a hood much the same as the house Avernus' signature veil, constantly heads out at night with his otherworldly scythe to bring the diabolical souls to their rightful end. He has never failed, save one.

It happened the same time as the first battle of the Ancients. The Reaper left on the most dangerous assignment yet. Tracking down the Doom Bringer, fallen angel, branded killer. Nothing is known about what transpired that night, other than the Doom Bringer roams free and the Reaper has redoubled his efforts to track down and obliterate every target.

News has reached the council of Seventh hell. Doom has participated in the most recent battle for the Ancients, on the dire team. Andrylos has spotted his chance. he would join the Radiant side, in the hopes of finally defeating the soul that escaped him three millennia ago.

R: Sever soul (Target unit)

The Reaper targets an opponent, and is given
a phrase to speak (type down). If the phrase is
spoken (Typed) then the target instantly dies.
The higher the opponent's HP when you cast this,
the longer the phrase and the less time you have
to speak (type). If you are stunned, or if you
do not finish speaking (typing), you die yourself.
(Ministuns do not count.)
If the enemy moves out of range, the spell is broken
but you do not die. if an opponent gains magic immunity
during the duration, the entire spell is cancelled, and
you don't die.

No soul may escape me.

I will still add more detail to the ulti, as it was kinda rushed.

This is awesome, so with the ulti, you have to type words in order to kill your opponent? How much time do you have? Very very cool idea; I like it!

2 word phrase: Izh Safras (You suffer)
4 word phrase: Hahsh Ozh Poz Fol (Feel my power, weakling)
6 word phrase: Ozh Omoz Gluth Doq Izh Sol (My darkness feeds on your hope)
8 word phrase: Coming soon!

Good work!

Jeeeeez...My first hero without criticism. (Wait...WHY DID I SAY THAT!? I CURSED MYSELF, I KNOW IT!)

In any event, thanks and...What language is that? Is it the same one Shadow Demon uses?

Well..... Do you really want me to get started? XD

So cool! I wished I'd thought of this... With practice, the ulti could become devastating, though. I mean, some people can type at 50 words per minute, and 8 words is like nothing!

Yes, it's Ozkavosh. Broken Ozkavosh, probably, but still Ozkavosh :P

You have made me curious. CRITICISE ME OR PAY, MORTAL!

Yeah but bear in mind this is the middle of combat, they need to focus on their positioning, and if there are any stuns left or not. Plus, the phrases will be randomised every time.

You asked for it, no hard feeling then! Oh, by the way, criticize my new idea as well so we are even :p

Okay, so where to start... *evil smirk*
Well, let's go with the skill order, shall we?

For the first skill, I believe that it drains too freaking much of HP. Why? Well, let's go to math doto :) The damage is 320 for each enemy, mind you that the AoE at the maximum level is 400, and for good players (actually, even for mediocre players) it is very possible to deal damage to at least 4 creeps and 2 heroes in normal dual lane in a single wave (even more if the creeps are stacked). So based on that, here are the calculation: (4*320)+(2*75%*320) = 1280 (from 4 creeps, since they have no magic resist) + 480 (two heroes with basic 25% resistance) = 1760 damage, which is 70%*1760 = 1232 freaking heal for just 120 mana cost. Well..... Decide for yourself what this means.

For the second skill, well.... Let me say it like this: hey, you know what's the normal single-stun duration? Oh, it's 2 seconds, right? Well, this skill gives you 3 seconds stun in A LINE (thus enabling multiple target stun for 3 seconds). Oh, and it's not all! It's combined with a freaking 1200 range blink!

For the third... Ever wonder why Kinetic Field needs formation time? It's because 5 seconds lock down is crazy, even Ravage is only capable of 2.77 seconds lock down (well, I know that it does damage and all) and Kinetic Field does not even deal any damage. This skill? It requires NO formation/animation time, lasts for 5 freaking second (as if your 3 seconds stun is not pretty OP) and to put a cream on it, also deals 300 damage in 450 AoE! That's a normal nuking damage (normally only one hero and has no additional, crazy effects like slow and lock down), so yeah.....

The ultimate skill, well it is very interesting, but is it right to assume that with Black King Bar and sufficient practice you can insta-kill anyone? Don't you think it is crazy yourself? Especially with ABSOLUTE NO WAY to evade this skill. I know that you are rushed and still have to put details in, so I'll refrain from criticizing your ulti anymore

Now, don't get me wrong, I like this hero idea and I have put some thought in the past on making a hero with similar skill as this ulti (which I scrap because it seems impossible). However, you still lacks A LOT of balancing and scaling (not to mention details), my friend :)

Oh, by the way, if you want suggestions (which you did not ask before), do suggest as well in my hero idea :p
