TREANT PROTECTOR'S CASTING ANIMATIONS SUGGESTION

Quote:

Greetings Dota Community!

We all know that treant protector when casting his skills only does the "eat tree" animation where in he extends his arms. Frankly that looks great when buffing your allies (nature's guise and living armor) but not when you're using eyes in the forest and overgrowth.

So i propose two new animations for the said skills.

Quote:

EYES IN THE FOREST

the eyes in the forest casting animation looks plain and also a tree magically pops out of nowhere... So i'm proposing this new animation:

specifications of the animation:

1-2.) Treant protector does the animation "attack 2"
3.) "Ent birth" animation is played
4.) The tree birth animation is played (to avoid the instant popping of a tree from nowhere)
5.) The tree is in place

This is purely cosmetic / visual change. No mechanics changes here or anything... Just the animation. Now doesn't it look cooler than the current one, having the birth animation and all

Quote:

OVERGROWTH

Now overgrowth is a pretty cool spell and it just has a normal casting animation. So i propose this:

Specifications of the animation:

1.) When treant protector casts overgrowth he does the "morph" animation (to show that his roots are entangling enemies)
2.) This has no delay time and is the same with the current animation's cast time
3.) Can be canceled like the current
4.) No changes in mechanics, only the animation.

Quote:

TESTMAP

Please try the testmap since the screenshots really doesn't give the animation justice. The testmap was created by Zirath, thanks to his great map making skills! Really appreciate your help here Zirath!

There is no msi here or any changes in the mechanics. This suggestion is only for the casting animations of the skills to make treant protector cooler.

Let me know your feedback and comments dota community! Thanks!

I tested your "Test map" and I liked almost everything

I don't like the attack animation when he casts Eyes in the Forest

he should play "Stand - 3" animation, so he can raise his hands when summoning the tree

3/4 T-up

NoThlnG · 10-31-2009, 10:41 AM

T-Up like both but I agree with kuratz

Great - especially Overgrowth. I really hope it'll get implemented.

Thanks for the feedback DOTA Community... I also thought about the "Stand 3" animation but it is too slow for a casting animation... problem there is most players would always cancel that animation since its too slow to execute.

Or is there a way to make that super fast to be seen as a casting animation without nerfing Treant Protector?
