Hadrian, The Gladiator

Hadrian, The Gladiator

"Bring out your best warriors. I will defeat them all."

Lore
Sold into slavery at the young age of 10 to pay his father's debts, every day has been a battle for Hadrian to keep his life. He began filling in the time slots in the arena between the headline battles where he would wrestle boars. Losing an eye and breaking limbs to show for these early perilous situations, Hadrian still would not back down from the challenge of the arena. As he aged and stayed in slavery, he began fighting other slaves of his age with nothing but his bare hands, initially in order to please the crowd but then it became a sort of signature of his. Hadrian suffered the many blows expected from such reckless decisions and lost a great deal of support in the arena. But he stuck to his axiom, "Blades can be broken. But not I." and endured years of losing and almost dying many times.

However, little by little, Hadrian began winning battles. He studied how each opponent defeated him, how to use their weapons against them, and created techniques to counter his enemies. Appearing to his foes as a battered brute who was too incompetent to use a weapon, Hadrian was smarter than he let on. Eventually Hadrian become the local favorite gladiator, welcoming champion fighters that traveled to the humble arena for a chance at victory against Hadrian. None of them succeeded.

Enemies approach on the horizon with their armies, hoping to destroy the radiant civilization. Hadrian can never turn down a challenge.

More info on how this melee invoker-style hero works:

-Hadrian does not have an auto attack, right clicking an enemy targets them. You may use your Q,W,E,R on them freely. They do not take up mana and are all autocastable.

-The cooldown of Light Punch, Light Kick, Heavy Punch, and Heavy kick are all the base attack time shared by the basic attack (if Hadrian were to have one) with modified speeds according to the ability.

-Attack speed boosts DO affect the cooldown of Hadrian's Light Punch, Light Kick, Heavy Punch, and Heavy Kick.

-Modifiers to basic attacks affect Hadrian's Q,W,E,R

Good idea.Me gusta

no ulti? ok.

The ulti is innate, whenever you get a combo off you can use your finisher.

Sorry man, but that would mess up the levelling points quite badly.

uscathed,the ultimate is like Earth Spirit's remenants.They are there from the beginning and don't need to be leveled up.

He has 4 skills that can be levelled up 4 times.

He has no levelled ultimate.

He will eventually have a max of level 9 attribute bonus. Good or bad? Your pick.

alright i concede.

one skill must have 3 points only.

buff damage from it instead.

Ehh, not really. You really need all the skill levels to be 15.

So 3*4=12 it still doesnt work.

Look at invoker for example. Or If i am in a situation like this i will give 5 spells with 5 scaling with no attribute.

Better 0 than 5 because u know... OCD and ****

Fixed!

-Made Heavy Kick only have 3 points to skill into
-Increased Heavy Kick's scaling
-Added more Combo Finishers

Thanks for the help guys!
