english is bad but the hero is good.

Nice Flying Machine idea =).
However I miss a passive/autocastable skill for a better look.
Having no ideas for the icons You need :/.
Gravity Bomb is too unoriginal I think, it's like Dark Seers nuke, but this one pulls the enemies with a much lower speed.

Hmm? What? I'm expecting someone will say this is similar to black hole... --a

This is last for several duration while dark seer just pull it like that

Also this doesn't damage while it does.

Ah... It's 'similarity' to the black hole is by the way ^^.

Haha... I've already anticipated it when making this skill

First, black hole completely disables enemies while this still enables them to cast skill and spell.

Second, black hole is channeling while this throws a kind of grenade to do it instead of yourself

Third, black hole does damage while this isn't

Could you tell me btw which one uses bad english?

[ZΣD]

not bad

He isn't Zeppelin. And he doesn't ride, he flies. You fooled me into reading this suggestion as I thought it had Zeppelin model. The Zeppelin's voice set implies Mad Rider, of Flier. I like zeppelin.

Well, at first his name was Zap then I changed it to Zapper.

But I think both name doesn't sound fit so I changed it to Zepplin.

Suggest me a better name then I'll immediately change it.

You might wanna give him a Dwarven name. Something lame with soft letters like B, G, D. Vocal O sounds like made for dwarf.

[NoThlnG]

well, some of the name I thought when I first saw your suggestion: GOD, DOG, BOGOD, DOGOB, .... just kidding ^^

Hmm... I'm thinking right now... How about something like Gnod?

[Light-Coke]

Gnod is so Gnome thing to say. You must be kidding, that's like so 2000 and 5.

Dogob sounds lame enough for bearded woman to name her child with.

[Baldoro]

Dragnar, the Mad Rider.
Sounds not bad, what about it?
Or Bogdan (a real Polish name xD), contains B, D, G and O! :d

First Skill: Remove the random factor, combine the two effects if you have to. Napalm is inherently useless for creeping because the missiles home in on heroes. You also didn't specify how fast the missiles are moving.

Second Skill: Nice new concept, but numbers need tweaking. Buff the miss rate to 15 or 20% at level 4. Nerf the MS bonus, its ridiculous(I'd place it on my third skill idea, if you want to use it). Otherwise great concept.

Third Skill: No, this ability's concept is basically a vacuum that requires aiming. I don't like it, try to replace it with something else.

Ultimate: Lower Cooldowns at levels 1/2, nobody is going to get the ulti until late-ish game. Also, nice idea but I'd give it a secondary passive effect, such as improving all of his other skills. (lowering rocket CD, madshot miss rate, or AOE for

My suggestion for the third skill:

Lock-on.

Description: Zepplin lifts his hovercraft off the ground and begins to chase an enemy, attacking and moving at the same time. If Zepplin gets close enough to the enemy, he will deal explode dealing bonus damage and slowing his enemy.

Level 1: Lasts 6 seconds, 10% MS bonus. Deals 50 damage and slows by 10% for 6 seconds if Zepplin crashes. Zero Collision while active.
Level 2: Lasts 7 seconds, 15% MS bonus. Deals 100 damage and slows by 20% for 6 seconds if Zepplin crashes. Zero Collision while active.
Level 3: Lasts 8 seconds, 20% MS bonus. Deals 150 damage and slows by 30% for 6 seconds if Zepplin crashes. Zero Collision while active.
Level 4: Lasts 9 seconds, 25% MS bonus. Deals 200 damage and slows by 40% for 6 seconds if Zepplin crashes. Zero Collision while active.

Explanation:

This is a single target spell. Zepplin can either target an area to escape, or an enemy to attack. When activated, Zepplin will gain 0 collision and have a 10/15/20/25% movespeed bonus (flying high). If Zepplin targeted an enemy hero when using this skill, he will automatically attack that enemy as long as the target is in range. If the target is not in range/there was no target, he will attack anything randomly in range (while moving!). At the end of the duration, he will "crash" and deal damage and slow everything in a 250 AOE.

I like this idea better because it synergies well with his second skill and ultimate (flying to chase a hero that was just revealed) and it fits better for his "mechanical theme" compared to the gravity bomb.
(When flying, he will cut down trees similarly to Batrider's flying skill)

Most of your idea accepted...

Bogdan the Mad Rider, I like the name change.

But I think it should be, Bogdan the Mad Aviator. It gives the reader the indication that he's not riding say, a wolf or a dinosaur, but definitely some sort of flying device.

Also, a question -- you stated that if the target of your Homing Missile becomes magic immune (Repel, BKB, etc.) then the missile will automatically search for another target within a 1000 AOE.

But, what happens if the only target in the 1000 AOE is the magic immune target? Does the missile float around in circles til the magic immunity wears off, then hits? Or does it fizzle and disappear?

Also, what happens if you shoot it in an AOE where there IS no enemy hero?

It will comeback to the targeted point and explode in both case

I've changed the name btw

[bimjowen]

Ah, cool, and gotcha.

Oh, another question -- what if there are two heroes in the AOE, which one does the rocket automatically try to target first? Is it like Tinker's, where it will target the closer one? Or perhaps the one with lower HP?

[NoThlnG]

You'll target a point for the rocket. First, rocket flies to the point and then it will search the hero closest from the point.
