Name: Ragnaros
Title: Alpha Firelord

Ragnaros was one of the four Elemental Lords who walked the planet at its very first days. From his chaotic element, he brought heat which made the very first volcanoes and remained supreme in his domain while incinerated those he found puny. When the Titans came to Azeroth however, he and his minions were forced to wage a series of unsuccessful battles against the supreme beings but were finally defeated and imprisoned along with their masters, the Old Gods into the Ethereal Plane. Millenia have past, now finally freed due to the intervention of the dwarves, Ragnaros awaits for the day he will finally have his blazing vengeance over the Titans.

Skill Synergies:

Simple, use Sizzle inside a Volcanic Pit to deal more damage.

-->
Sacrifice a Lava Spawn inside a Volcanic Pit and deal damage to everybody in the area. Now that's what summons should do.

-->
Now this really helps Wild Volcanic Eruption. 4 Volcanic Pits will result into lesser mana, and a huge damage to the disabled hero. Now that's hot.

i dont like the format.
the middle format is a sign for a not to be very well versed person in typographie. It looks like oh, cool everything is balanced, but it isnt rly good to read.

My complains

*Sighs* I wasted my whole time just to have this HI in a middle format same as Mizuki's and Eturn's. Anyways I want to have a unique sort of layout. haha. I think reading it is not a problem.

[ResQ]

The icon is of course already used by Nevermore, it's just tinted. But the hero model is lovely, your theme fits perfect.. very nice hero!

no. Mizuki's newest isnt in middle format. it has more space between the edge of the post and the text, but it isnt middled. that makes a big difference in comfort of reading it.

[†GodKing†]

Well just leave the format for a while. I'll fix it if I get the time.

Mini-review as per pity (LOL)

Skill 1 - I like the use of the volcano visual, its too fucking hot to ignore. Fine dps skill here.

Skill 2 - Is this like an immolation? I'm not quite sure with the forced synergy with the 1st skill.

Skill 3 - I like how you get more damage when erupts in the area/volcanic pit. But seems quite forced too. Another summon skill, but it does seem more than sub-par which pretty much is satisfying. Good skill.

Ultimate - Makes use (too much use) of the first skill. Another DPS skill which I thinks makes this hero repetitive.

Overall I think Ragnaros has a limited initiating capability. All his skills surround the use of using the 1st skill to start with everything. Without skill 1, you can't do anything effective. That's where the conflict revolves. Although I love the theme and concept but not quite the ultimate at the moment, that needs a bit of improvement. PM me if you have any concerns or need any more help. I'll be sending some more of the requests, but all at once I'll compile it. Good luck.

[†GodKing†]

Thanks for the feedback King. Anyways I'll try my best to update him as soon as possible. ^_^

[†GodKing†]

BUMP. Should I change the ulti?

[†GodKing†]

BUMP. Need more feedbacks especially on the summons whether I should tweak or give them more abilities. ^^

[manafusion]

"from the pitlord borne-th the firelord" :P
pit = fire (??). i like this joke! pitfire! now we missing a letter s in front to form spitfire!

lava spawn has no hp? so, is it invul unit? you say lava spawn heals but i do not see heal values in description.

[†GodKing†]

Mhm, I'll make the changes later. Anyways any ideas? ^^

[manafusion]

ideas to improve? or change? need details.

oh, btw... do you get evasion bonus when standing on top of your own volcano and does others get it too?

[†GodKing†]

I need more ideas about the summons. ^^
