Default [Icon Set] Earthshaker


Current:




Suggested:



There is basically no need to change the icons, since they look good, but it pisses me off when two or even three different heroes have, not similar, but absolutely identical icons.

Stop with this bullshit, this is not warcraft, this is dota. Icons in warcraft do not need to match icons in dota.

Icon for Fissure should represent pieces that form this cracked path , maybe it doesn't really match, I think it looks fine.

Icon for ultimate represents ultimate better, because:
1. Ultimate is doing damage from target to target, the suggested icon at least some how represents that.
2. Shaker doesn't crack earth or whatsoever, he just shots shockwaves. On the old icon I can see an explosion.
3. The old icon is used on 2 other heroes.

Phoenix Egg for Fissure and a Bouncing Wave for Echo Slam.... Yeah, right.... Most nonsense suggestion I've ever seen. Sorry, but T-D.

Are you being serious?

Switching Fissure and Echo Slam's icons to Phoenix's Egg and Healing Wave respectively, and the icons you suggested does not represent the skills well.

T-down.

Default Re: [Icon Set] Earthshaker

Okay, I thought this was obvious and I did not take this suggestion serious, so here is what I seriously think about your suggestions.



Fissure:
This is an egg. In no way does this represent a fissure, the currently used icon is at least a shockwave icon (even though it is not perfect, either).
The egg is a phoenix egg, you can clearly see fire in the background and it shines brightly.

Echo Slam:
This is a freakin' HEALING WAVE.
I don't see any way either the healing part of the icon (rays of light), nor the wave part of the icon (these rays of light are bouncing) represent the ability.
For your information: The icon shows an ability that bounces from unit to unit.
But that is absolutely not the case with Echo Slam, Echo Slam's primary waves cause each unit to emit secondary waves in 500 AoE which won't emit any tertiary waves.

Also, flaming anyone who posts something you do not agree with as "troll" is unacceptable. Respect other people's opinions and even respect it if other people don't write more than 2 sentences for one of the worst suggestions that is around (that last part is based only on the comments of the users here).

Well he said it all you must know, kinda like the idea of changing the icon but not that egg and healing wave.

Dude, that's IT!
I stated a reason why people make short comments, if you are not able to read that reason and keep flaming people as trolls, you have to expect an infraction.
For now, I will delete your "troll"-posts and nothing else, but don't even think of posting other comments like that.
