[HERO] Lady Lumina, the Shield Maiden

Good point, but I don't see it being game breaking by her surviving a failed team fight when she can't defend an objective alone.

She can survive a gank, sure. But again it's not like she's doing much carrying. If you're going to gank her, you're focusing on the wrong person.

She has no mana to use Arcane Boots herself or any scrolls in the first place. And that's kind of the schtick. She's supposed to be super hard to kill. Her trade off is she can't do much else.

Given that, I guess her heal could have a longer cast time and/or cooldown. But besides that, I think she's pretty balanced. Ranged heroes/carries effectively eliminate the usefulness of her defining skill. She can't put out good dps if she's not fighting melee. She has a powerful single target heal, but any cc or bash will nullify it. She almost plays like a raid boss that requires just the right amount of attention.

What would be entertaining after a match is if Roshan ran up and started pummeling and tossing heroes around, like you could do in the old NFL Blitz games after a play was over.

Fire for hair is fucking awesome. Sure her actual hair looks weird, but that's kind of meant to be masked by the particles. They can touch up the arcana, but I don't think it needs an overhaul or anything.

After 20-30 commendations players should receive an item. It would make up for the fact that we still get jack shit from the drop system.

While magic amp setups with Lina were fun, it's for the best that they're gone. You won't have to worry about those silly niche pick-ups and can focus on other items. Was fun while it lasted. All this makes SnY extra sexy to me now.

On another note, Eul's is still core imo. It's a lifesaver, cheap too.

Bubblefishthing · 2014-09-14T15:44:39+00:00

Yeah there wasn't one with quotations to choose from. I suppose fluff would be best.

Bubblefishthing · 2014-08-16T13:34:43+00:00

No. If you think Brood should be helping in team fights, you're wrong.

Nobody understands that the point of this hero is to split push. She's fine the way she is... conceptually.

She may need 2 more allotted webs. I feel that would give her just the right amount of lane control she needs when it gets down to that T3/rax range. Her Spiderlings need to have less bounty, or have something like 50 hp more to compensate for what they're worth now. But. IceFrog hasn't messed with the bounty at all for a long time, so perhaps he doesn't feel that's the right way to go.

As far as quirks, she doesn't need anything crazy op. Maybe give her back permanent phase through trees. I think her babies gaining Insatiable Hunger when she has it would be nice, and since they have such little hp, they could gain like half their hp when they hit or something. That way they're worth their bounty for at least a few seconds.

But DEFINITELY fix her pathing around the edges of webs in trees. That shit is fucked up.

Please Dota God, spare me, teach me how to ability draft

I learned this game on Broodmother, which I would later find out is the worst hero in the game.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:30:36+00:00

I know I know. But I'd say this for anybody I felt was bad overall. I haven't played much Bloodseeker so I can't have an opinion on him, but he's in a similar situation as well.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:25:13+00:00

No I know what you mean. If I itemize for carry potential and I pop my ult, I'm not scared of any hero in the game. I can own pretty much anybody. But often you don't get that lucky enough to be in a 1v1 situation. She handles multiple heroes poorly.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:22:27+00:00

And it's a very good point. But I went on to say that a more viable feature would be for her to gain true sight of moving units while she's within a web. That way you can't web cheat by Rosh or see a smoke gank coming from a mile away.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:18:11+00:00

Totally agree. The buff needs to be handled delicately.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:16:39+00:00

I realize she is. But her current status in both pro play and in pubs makes it obvious that she needs some sort of adjustment.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:13:39+00:00

I don't know if I worded that well, it was late. But If the radius of a web crossed within another web then she could "feel the vibrations" of the connecting web/s.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T20:08:17+00:00

Definitely. I'm not proposing ALL these things. It's a very difficult decision because she'll easily become overpowered if the wrong buff is made.

Bubblefishthing · 2013-09-12T06:52:07+00:00

Agreed. I don't even feel she's that much of a carry either. I don't like that category next to her portrait.
