Forest Seeds
Materials: Tango x8
Recipe (50)
Costs: 300
Active: Target an area, a small cluster of 3-4 trees will pop out
Strategy: Although randomly creating trees seem pointless, it has lots of uses. When playing Timbersaw, strategically placing trees can get you an early kill, while Sniper could make a barricade of trees and shoot from behind it. Trees can also be used for a quick get away by blocking your opponents path
Slight issue with forest seeds. If you ever happen to buy two tangoes and some ironwood branches (a common build for many heroes) you're gonna accidentally build forest seeds which you probably wouldn't want early game. I could understand if forest seeds grew multiple trees in an area for blocking enemies, but one tree seems kinda pointless.
Forest Seeds could actually be interesting. Imagine if you had 8 trees in the middle of the mid lane. Could be interesting for bankers if you block side paths.
The problem with adding permanent terrain is how it could be abused. Say your mid lane is not someone who needs rune control, and you're up against a Puck, Templar Assassin, or otherwise. Screw them, just pop some trees around the runes. That's the LEAST obvious example. Block some jungle camps, completely block off lanes. Be a summons team, say, Lycanthrope, Nature's Prophet, Dark Seer(Ion shell pretty much), Chen, and Lone Druid, completely block off all of your lanes, and while holding the creeps off under your tower with your own summons wait until either one of you dies, or until you run out of mana(should take awhile with proper use of this strategy). Oh hey, you have like 5 or 10 creep waves behind your trees! Wouldn't it be funny if you could release them for a massive push? Oh wait.
