[Item] Hephaestus' Glory

[HELLRAISER]

I was considering to suggest two new items, but at the end i decided to combine them into one. In the future, i may come up with the 2 seperate items that would combine(having a S&Y concept but a bit harder to build up). So here it goes:

Hephaestus' Glory

(1400)+(2700)+(2100)=(6200)

Gives:
+10 Armor
+35 Int
+10 Agi
+10 Str
Passive: Cleanse
It removes all positive buffs from enemy heroes in 800AoE every 20seconds. Magic immune units are not affected.
Active: Disrupt
The spell is toggle-able, you can turn it off at any time. When you turn it on the bearer receive damage equal 2% of current hp and all enemy units receive damage equal to 1% of their max hp in 800AoE per second, enemy units affected by this can not be healed. Magic Immune units are not affected.
CD: 10seconds
Mana cost: 200

Passive notes: Item checks for enemy heroes in the aoe every 20seconds and purge them from positive buffs.

Active notes: It can't kill the bearer but will leave him alive with 1hp. Enemy units being affected by this skill get a debuff which is not stackable.(you can't be affected twice by this item, even if two of this items are being carried by 2 different heroes)

What I like on this item is that altho it appears quite defensive it had some very offensive properties. Thanks in advanced for any comments or suggestions on improvement for this item as i have high hopes

Alternative build up and cost:

(1400)+(3300)+RECIPE(1000)=(5700)
Gives:
+10 Armor
+450hp
+400mana
+4hp reg
+100% mana reg
Passive: Cleanse
Active: Disrupt

Why is big t-down? Btw it will just purge off buffs, not slow, which i'm sure you think it does. Have even notice the active?

Yeah...what do you mean by cannot Heal?

You can not be healed... your hp can only go down not up while under the effect of Disrupt.

The active is permanent?

Yes, it uses 1% of your hp per sec tho. I'm open to suggestions.

Yeah, so? It also give stats, is that a rip off of bracers? lol

This could work nicely vs mass healing based teams, but maybe the active is a bit weak? I I think you should buff the hp loss for enemies to 2% and keep the bearer hp loss to 1%...

Anyway t-up.

Thnx for the support but since its AoE maybe it will become overpowered?

The active is already OP, the bearer should take at least 2% while everyone take 1%, could be better like that, IMO.

What if instead of a percentage of health loss over time for the bearer be replaced for a standard health cost of 10-15% of max HP for 10-15sec duration, would it better?

Few questions: What is your item good for? In which situations you find it useful? Which heroes should wear it? Why are you posting your item idea? What changes will your item bring?

Thank you for the questions:

What is your item good for?

This item is good for countering healing heavy teams, or lifesteal heavy teams(draw+hotd+sk for example) The beauty of is that the item it self is being counter-able by magic immunity. (BKB, Rage, Repel)

In which situations you find it useful?

It will be mostly useful in team fights, as it gives a strong AoE damage presence with AoE debuffing and damaging.

Which heroes should wear it?

Mainly heroes with good EHP that require some sort of mana boost late game.

Why are you posting your item idea?

Cause I find this item interesting and i think it could be a viable item on many heroes and be very useful as a counter on certain situations.

What changes will your item bring?

It wont directly affect gameplay, it acts as most other items, which are either a counter to heroes or a hero property booster, this item can act in both ways depending on the occasion.

[Straight Flush]

I don't think this would fit too many heroes tbh. The only one which comes to mind is Necro so maybe that's why
