Uniqueness of Skills

__________________________________________________

INTRODUCTION

This is an addition to my guide "Thoughts and Explanations on Heroes". I seperated it to make the guide more readable and to make discussion for those who are interested easier. Here, I am going to compare skills by their general concept and show what skills are kind of overused and thus less original and what not. This might also help hero suggestors to look up whether a combination of certain effects is unique.

SKILLS

Need help, trying to make something which helps suggestors to quickly look up if their skill and their combination of effects is original or used already.

Nukes

Single Targeted Nukes

These are skills, that only deal damage to one enemy [will perhaps be divided into nukes with and nukes without ministun, I'll see about that later on]:

Targeted AoE Nukes

These are skills, that damage enemies in a targeted area.

Instant AoE Nukes

These are skills, that damage enemies in an AoE around your hero.

Line Targeted Nukes

These are skills, that damage enemies in a line.

Cone AoE Nukes

These are skills, that damage enemies in a cone.

DOTs

Single Targeted DOTs

These are skills, that deal damage over time to a single targeted enemy.

Instant AoE DOTs

These are skills, that deal damage over time to nearby enemies around yourself.

Targeted AoE DOTs

These are skills, that deal damage over time at the targeted area.

Stackable DOTs

These are skills, that deal damage over time to nearby enemies that stacks if cast more than once.

Damage Mechanisms

Pure Damage

These are skills, that deal unreduced damage.

Mixed Damage

These are skills, that deal both physical and magical damage.

Damage Based On Your Enemies' HP

These are skills, that deal damage based on the HP of the enemies it affects.

Damage Based On Your HP

These are skills, that deal damage based on your HP.

Damage Based On Number Of Enemies

These are skills, that deal damage based on how many enemies it affects or are close to you and the target.

Heals

Single Targeted Heals

These are skills, that heal a single targeted ally.

Heals Dealing Damage

These are skills, that both heal and deal damage at the same time.

HOTs and HP-regens

These are skills, that heal an ally over time or improve his HP-regeneration.

Stuns

Single Targeted Stuns

These are skills, that stun a single targeted enemy instantly.

Single Targeted Missile Stuns

These are skills, that stun a single targeted enemy once a missile thrown at him hits the target.

Instant AoE Stuns

These are skills, that stun units in an AoE around your hero. In DotA, we currently have 5 such skills, all of them not only stun, but also deal damage:

Hoof Stomp is basically the ladder type of such skills. It's a simple small AoE stun with some damage.

Aftershock is unique, since it is a passive that makes all other skill casts of the hero an AoE stun. It's not an AoE stun itself, but makes all of Earthshaker's other skills have an AoE stun as a bonus effect.

Reverse Polarity is not only a very powerful AoE stun, but as well a displacement skill that sucks all enemy heroes in front of Magnataur. As such, it's unique and different from all other skills in this category.

Ravage's difference in mechanics might only be that it's a wave and not an instant effect, so the stun travels outwards and needs some time to reach the full range. But to be honest, the real difference from other AoE stuns is its huge area of effect and this is what makes the skill unique.

Slithereen Crush is not so different from Hoof Stomp, so that these two skills can be said to lack of some uniqueness. The differences are that Slithereen Crush also has a short slow after the stun, is more spammable, has a worse stun (especially at early levels) and slightly worse damage.

Discussion: Uniqueness of Hoof Stomp and Slithereen Crush:

In general, their idea is pretty much the same: instantly stunning foes in a relatively small aoe around you. In the usage, such skills always have the similarity of being used as initiation tool with a Blink Dagger in ganks or team-fights.
However, these two skills have some differences determined by the heroes' different concepts. Centaur Warchief is an early-mid game tank that needs some advance and good items to transition well into the late-game. As such, his stun is designed powerful from the first level on, so that he can be aggressive during laning-phase already. Slithereen Guard is a tank-carry hybrid with a relatively poor early-game. As such, it's not necessary to be powerful from level 1 on, but it provides a solid escape-mechanism combined with Sprint and due to its low CD can in some situations be used more than once in both offensive and defensive ways.
Moreover, it has to be acknowledged that such instant AoE stuns are basic skills and therefore are bound to be used more than once in a similar way.

So overall, it's a tough choice. Their basic idea is similar, their usage in ganks and teamfights is similar. The differences are mainly adjustments to the hero's concept and the role the skills play in it.
Since the skills are slightly different and very hard to remake without destroying parts of the heroes' concepts, I guess it's fine that they are like this. If there turns out to be a viable possibility to make them more unique, however, then why not.

Targeted AoE Stuns

These are skills, that stun enemies in a targeted AoE.

Targeted Delayed AoE Stuns

These are skills, that stun units in a targeted AoE after a short delay. In DotA, we currently have 3 such skills, all of them not only stun, but also deal damage:

Light Strike Array is the standard version of such skills. After a short delay, all units in targeted area are stunned and receive damage.

Split Earth is basically the same skill as Light Strike Array. Only differences are some balance changes of numbers and workout differences to adapt the skill into the skillset.

Avalanche is a targeted delayed AoE stun, despite its misleading animation. The main difference compared to the other skills in this category lies in its mechanics, however. The damage is actually dealt in four instances every 0.25 seconds. Besides, enemies can be damaged twice by this skill if Tiny's Toss is used.

Torrent is a unique version of such skills in many aspects. First of all, it's not even a real stun, but a pause, like all knockup skills, so it's not only the animation that makes it look differently already. But that only results in small technical and minor gameplay varieties. The true uniqueness of this skill lies in its huge casting range that is balanced with a comparably long delay. Also, in contrast to the other skills of this type, it has a slow added.

Discussion: Uniqueness of Light Strike Array and Split Earth:

Well, you can't deny the fact that both these skills are basically the same and thus lack of uniqueness. They are even used in a similar way in their skillset and fulfil similar roles.
It's not easy to find a unique replacement that goes as well with the skillset as these skills, but if you do so then that could be a great solution.
But even if they stay as similar as they are now, they are relatively basic skills, so it doesn't hurt too much if they are used twice.

Point Targeted AoE Stuns

These are skills, that shoot a missile towards a point and stun in an aoe at one point.

Line Targeted AoE Stuns

These are skills, that stun enemies in a line.

Single Targeted AoE Stuns

These are skills, that stun enemies around a target.

Bouncing Stuns

These are skills, that stun enemies by bouncing between them.

Repetitive Stuns Over Time

These are skills, that repeatedly stun enemies over time.

Slows

Single Targeted Slows

These are skills, that slow a single targeted enemy.

Instant AoE Slows

These are skills, that slow units in an AoE around your hero.

Auras

Ally Buff Auras

These are skills that buff your allies in an AoE around you permanently.

Enemy Debuff Auras

These are skills that debuff your enemies in an AoE around you permanently.

Attack Modifiers

Cleaves

These are skills, that make the normal attack of a hero or unit affect multiple units [Will perhaps be divided more clearly later on into cleave, splash, etc...]:

Blinds

These are skills that cause the normal attack of a hero or unit to miss.

Crits

These are skills that cause the normal attack of a hero or unit to crit.

Evasions

These are skills that make you dodge normal attacks thrown at you.

Attack Range Modifiers

These are skills that make your normal attack have a different range.

Autocastable Normal Attacks

These are skills that make your normal attack being cast with a skill in an improved way. These attacks can be autocasted.

Permanent Self Stat Buffs

These are skills, that buff your own basic stats (STR/AGI/INT or the respective gains) permanently:

Great Fortitude just increases Strength when learned, while Marksmanship increases Agility.

Flesh Heap and Last Word only have a permanent stat buff as a minor side-effect when an enemy is killed nearby, so that they are unique and different overall. This side-effect is meant to carry them into late-game if they are doing well, both of them have 1 skill scaling with the increased stat.

Discussion: Uniqueness of Great Fortitude and Marksmanship:

Both skills have basically the main effect - they increase the main stat of their hero permanently by a fix number. They also have similar effects, because they make their hero powerful throughout the mid-game, even with few items. With only few items (mostly HotD and Yasha), the Drow Ranger can carry her team in the mid-game, sooner than any other hero. With only basic items, the Centaur Warchief can absorb a whole bunch of damage in the mid-game, more than any other hero.
As you can see, the effect is in general similar, the differences lie in the stat. STR allows to tank exceptionally well, AGI allows to auto-attack exceptionally well. While this is a simple way to achieve such effects, the effects themselves are unique in the end.

	For spell casting backfire, you missed Unstable Current. Might as well get the list of shockwave based skills too (Dragon Slave, Shockwave, Sonic Wave). I like this list.
