Default Demon Witch Overhaul


Name, Model and Icon
Li'on the Demon Witch (Suggested by Gheizen64)
first, blue doesn't fit lion cuz obviously he is a demon which is red
so plz plz plz don't tint lion and use the ingame chaos warlock icon



Pros
● reduces MSI
● looks more like a demon

Cons
● none


Skills
Impale
Eruption
Quote:
The Demon Witch releases his demonic magics into the ground in order to cause eruption along a straight path. This sends all his enemies into the air, only to take damage on their fiery impact with the flame.
to fit lion's demonic theme, i suggest using virtvius's suggestion

or or (Created by Palaslayer)

could use other icon, suggestions are welcomed


Pros
● fits his theme
● impale is overused

Cons
● MSI


Voodoo
Hex or Demon Words or Fel Curse or Fellish Curse or Demonic Judgement
Quote:
Transforms an enemy unit into a fel creature, disabling special abilities.
use a fel boar instead of overused chicken



Pros
● fits his theme
● vodoo is overused
● chicken is overused

Cons
● none


Finger of Death
Finger of Death
Quote:
Instantly rips at a target, attempting to turn it inside-out. Deals massive damage.
icon remains the same
then, if lion killed a unit with it, make the unit explodes on dead
(Suggested by kanzakill)



lastly, when lion is casting it, play the attack animation instead of spell
(Suggested by CrYn00b)



Pros
● makes the ability a lot different from laguna blade
● looks cooler with the exploding corpes effect
● looks like he is casting the ability

Cons
● none


Suggested Icon Set

Mana is blue. So it doesn't make any sense to tint the icon into red.

All nice and good, but why no mechanical changes to Finger of death? With all those changes, a change to his ulti (that's really the same as Lina's one) could have been good too. Anyway all logical changes, especially his stupid blue color. Ah, and i propose to change his name from
Lion
to
Li'on

Lion is nowhere demonic enough!

Look my reorganization of the weapon shop for:
• Organized shop layout (ala Sena the Accesorizer)
• More unique +dmg items (BoA ,Broadswoard & Claymore)
• Items and recipes are more logical and intuitive
• Hammer is the old Javelin (the %chance fits naturaly in Basher + Mael)
• Desolator is now made from swords
and more!

Mana is a standard colour - blue. Period.
The tint is fine. Snork's hero icon also. Impale and Crynoob's suggested lighting attack are great.

this are only visual changes, so i don't want to remake the ulti
Li'on looks good, but what does it sounds like?

i know, that's why i'm suggesting 'bleed dry' for mana drain, so that it fits
'bleed dry' means something like drain afaik

Don't like the third icon either, the rest are fine. Bleed Dry and the red icon makes it too much like a HP drain, I think everyone can accept that mana is blue so don't worry about it.

T-Up to all except 3rd (just keep it as Mana Drain). And I like 'Fel Curse' best among all the names you listed for the 2nd skill.

note- I loled at how in crynoob's suggestion, all the targets are little boys.... Fingering little boys eh, Mr. Lion?

T-UP expect the mana drain and impale. Felboar and explosion to ulti and possibly the color change of lion sounds cool.

for all other skills, except Mana Drain change. Mana's Standard Color - Blue - should never be changed. And you even renamed it into BLEED DRY, which means it absorbs BLOOD, not MANA, so for Bleed Dry.

This is great... this is what I had in mind but you beat me to it. I fully support this cosmetic overhaul for Lion. Yes this makes him more "demonic".

Though the mana drain icon can still be the default one... it wouldn't really matter. Red mana drain seems to be a bit uncool.

Still I support all other suggestions made. Great job here!
