Default [cosmetic] degen aura animation

OMNIKNIGHT'S DEGEN AURA ANIMATION

Quote:
Hi DOTA Community!

As well all know, the current degen aura of omniknight has no animation even though it's one of the most helpful (in the allies' side or annoying the enemies' side) auras in the game.

So let me propose an animation for the degen aura:



credits goes to gookywooky from hiveworkshop.com. His post can be found here

pros:

+ fits omniknight's holy theme
+ new aura model

cons:

- msi of 5.50 kb

I also attached a test map, let me know your comments and feedback on this.

Thanks DOTA community!

AXN, IceFrog said that MSI isn't an issue right now, so the 5kb is not worth mentioning.Anyway, good to know it's small

I had a suggestion of my own, putting the "slow" animation beneath him, but it is overused.Anyway, this looks holy.I agree with this, since his story is about
"His holy powers atrophy any enemy scourge around him" or something like that.

The aura fits, and animation>no animation, so T-up

(when will polls be introduced here?)

Did you saw this at Tauren's aura request? I posted the same model there

Thumbs-UP anyway, it really looks fitting and 5Kb isn't that much, we can sacrifice.

T-up definitely. Anything is better than nothing, and besides as you said it fits with the theme

At first I thought it was horrible just by looking at your image but when I downloaded the t-map I felt "wow"-nice looking aura you got there.

Although I suggest to make it more inconspicuous, maybe by making it less bright.
Overall, I'd like this implemented. GJ.

Cool animation, the only problem I think this has is that the tooltip for Degen Aura needs to be tinted more yellowish to fit the aura.

@HappyCat

Why should the tooltip be yellow? Aren't all tooltips with the default color?

off the topic, omni could use some rebalance on aura.

@Harbinger

Thanks for the T-Up!

@doomsheep

Thanks for the vote! About rebalancing, I'm not really good at the balancing and functions of the game. I'm more attuned on the looks (since its easier to change but less priority in fixes ) rather than mechanics since I think that IceFrog placed it there for a reason... OR for the players/users to say if it's balanced or not

@Mfunn

Thanks for the vote!

@Frizz.Meister

Hmmm I looked at hiveworkshop.com and so far this one gets me the most... well there was also another one but it doesn't have any animation. Its a static aura but thanks for your opinion. I respect that.

@DarkMedina

Thanks for the support DarkMedina!

Yes you are correct... I'm going to think of other heroes that have aura effects for allies / enemies but doesn't have animations and also heroes with aura animations but does not affect others (Balanar, Razor etc...)
