[Overhaul]Magnus the Magnataur

Rizenix · 12-02-2009, 03:14 PM

I know there has been a lot of Magnus's Overhaul suggestions, but I'm still going to post this anyways.

Current Model & Icon :

TINTED FROM

Looks ugly since it's a tinted model, so here's my suggested one :

Magnataur Warrior :

Magnataur Reaver :

Both seems better and stronger

, choose your poison. Credits for Ez_Mystery for this part.

Skillset :
Current :

Shockwave : Original and already good, no comments needed.

Empower : Doesn't make sense since Magnus doesn't have anything to represent this icon.

Mighty Swing : Looks good, but can be improved with something to make it's theme alike.

Reverse Polarity : Also doesn't make sense. Magnataur doesn't have a stone hand.

Suggested :

Shockwave : No change suggested for this.

Empower : Seems like he's increasing the power of one's arm, thus increasing damage.

Mighty Swing : As I said before, this can be improved into this to make its theme alike.

Reverse Polarity : Seems like he is going to do a stomp or a slam that will stun. At least better than a stone hand which represents nothing.

Icon suggested taken from here for Reverse Polarity and here for Empower
I've also attached a Test Map, although it still lacks something important - the Empower Icon. Maybe there's someone who is nice enough to put the Empower Icon which I suggested into the Test Map?

T-up on icons.

null on untint// model change.

T-up on everything. Icons look nice and tinted model sucks. Give him Reaver model.

Necro · 12-02-2009, 04:16 PM

Give him the Reaver model but the Warrior icon. I love your iconset, the Reincarnation icon always looked good to me.

Henry · 12-02-2009, 10:03 PM

I really like all the things you suggested here. T-UP all.

L|Enzo · 12-03-2009, 05:18 AM

to model change because the reason why Icefrog choose the white one because the name was Magnataur Destroyer at ladder.

What's the problem with the Destroyer name? Sounds stronger? But in DotA it has the title Magnataur, not with the Destroyer.

Anyways, that's your opinion about the model, how about the Icons?

Ezekedes · 12-03-2009, 03:26 PM

Big T-Up. They look fantastic.
The magnataur reaver is a bit more imposing as well.

T-up for icons and Reaver model

Rubn · 12-03-2009, 10:57 PM

T-up looks very nice ! Give him reaver model and icon.

AduhAwas · 12-04-2009, 03:47 AM

Love all the changes. As for the icon I definitely don't want to see the snow one. Magnus' model has always had an ugly skin but the snow one definitely looks worse. The black barbarian looking Magnus skin looks the best imo.

RaistMagus · 12-04-2009, 01:05 PM

Right now Magnus is white, he looks like a "polar" Magnus (like polar bear) which is an implied synergy with his ulti, Reverse Polarity. So t-d

Lol no, your suggestions rock, especially the model ones. It should be done imo.
