born many a eons ago, the Seraphim is a being of unparalleled power. Having been awakened from a great slumber, the Stellar Soldier traveled to this world abd found the conflict raging between the Sentinel and the Scourge. It was not his style to simply watch combat. He prefered to to take arms with the weaker side and assist them. And so he joined the sentinel to tip the balance in their favor. Those who have witnessed him on the battlefield discribe an angelic being of mighty stature with 6 great wings unleashing psionic blasts upon any who assault him and cleaving through the most heavily armored heroes like paper with his sighty blade Archletham. Though he me side with the sentinel now, there is no telling what the future may hold...

Assault Charge (z)
The Seraphim Soldier is capable of extreme bursts of speed that normal beings are incapable of seeing. Should he wish to, he can charge forward at his enemies dealing damage and bypassing most obstacles.
Level 1 - Stellar charges forward dealing 120 damage in a line. 400 maximum range
Level 2 - Stellar charges forward dealing 180 damage in a line. 500 maximum range
Level 3 - Stellar charges forward dealing 240 damage in a line. 600 maximum range
Level 4 - Stellar charges forward dealing 300 damage in a line. 700 maximum range
Mana Cost: 140
Cooldown: 25

Framework: Stellar moves forward in whatever direction he is facing. It should look like a blink effect with a red shock wave following right behind.

Notes: I think this is a good skill that could be really fun.

Psionic Shield (S)
One of the many Psionic powers that Stellar is capable of is raising a psionic barrier. This barrier aborbs blows and can sometimes repel enemies who strike it.
Level 1 - Absorbs 5% of melee damage and has a 10% chance to stun melee heroes that strike it for 1.2 seconds. Drains 10 mana/sec until deactivated
Level 2 - Absorbs 8% of melee damage and has a 12% chance to stun melee heroes that strike it for 1.2 seconds. Drains 20 mana/sec until deactivated
Level 3 - Absorbs 11% of melee damage and has a 14% chance to stun melee heroes that strike it for 1.2 seconds. Drains 30 mana/sec until deactivated
Level 4 - Absorbs 14% of melee damage and has a 16% chance to stun melee heroes that strike it for 1.2 seconds. Drains 40 mana/sec until deactivated
Mana Cost: 30/45/60/75
Cooldown: N/A

Framework: A blue version of voodoo restoration surrounds Stellar.

Notes: This will be a very good skill for many reasons. A) It will help when farming. B) It can help make tanks less deadly to you. and C) It could save your from Melee heroes with invis/windwalk.

Archletham (C)
The Seraphim Soldier's legendary blade, said to have been forged from the thousands of souls who held the title before him. It is also said to have an edge thinner then a molecule. Such a thing would explain it's ability to cleave through even the toughest armor with ease. Orb Effect.
Level 1 - Stellar draws his blade Archletham and becomes melee for 10 seconds. Each blow made by Archletham will reduce enemy armor by 1. Cap is -4
Level 2 - Stellar draws his blade Archletham and becomes melee for 15 seconds. Each blow made by Archletham will reduce enemy armor by 1.5. Cap is -6
Level 3 - Stellar draws his blade Archletham and becomes melee for 20 seconds. Each blow made by Archletham will reduce enemy armor by 2. Cap is -8
Level 4 - Stellar draws his blade Archletham and becomes melee for 25 seconds. Each blow made by Archletham will reduce enemy armor by 2.5. Cap is -10
Mana Cost: 120
Cooldown: 20/30/40/50

Framework: N/A

Notes: This will be great for weakening enemy heroes.

Psionic Wave Pulse (W)
One of many skill that Stellar has developed over the eons and one of his personal favorites. It has been used to take down many who have dared to challenge his power. Stellar channels power for 2 seconds then unleashes psionic pulses on his enemies in a 500 AoE.
Level 1 - Stellar releases 4 pulses. Each pulse does 50 damage and drains 10 mana.
Level 2 - Stellar releases 8 pulses. Each pulse does 50 damage and drains 20 mana.
Level 3 - Stellar releases 12 pulses. Each pulse does 50 damage and drains 30 mana.
Level 4 - N/A

Mana Cost: 150/175/200
Cooldown: 200

Framework: While Channeling, Stellar remains perfectly still. When the channeling is done, a red command aura surrounds him for the duration of the skill. All enemies that are plaged by this ability will have a soulburn symbol above thier heads and a mana burn for each pulse.

Notes: This is something I'm very proud of. It's like a mix between The Sand King's Epicenter and Diabolic Edict + a mana rape. >=)

Discussion:

Skill Synergy

Assault Charge + Psionic Wave pulse

Psionic Shield + Archletham

Archletham + Assault Charge

Items

If you haven't already figured it out, The Seraphim soldier is very mana dependant. I recommaend getting some major mana regen if used. Might wanna get Skadi for the slow down too.

Good Allies

Stunners are always a good thing to have on your team. Slowers as well. They make it easier for you to break out a can of whoop ass with your ult. Basicly, anyone who can keep the enemy from running away is gonna be your best buddy.

Enemies to watch out for

ANTI-MAGE! ANTI-MAGE! ANTI-MAGE! ANTI-MAGE! This basterd will royally screw you. The same for any hero macking a mana burn. You need mana. 'Nuff said. Stunners are also gonna be kind of annoying since you gotta channel for your ult. And of course, the thorn in any low hp hero's side: the nukers. I shouldn't have to list them.

Overview

This is my best work so far. It could be imba, but what I based it off of was near godly to begin with, so don't be too mad over it. This hero was based off of a character that a friend of mine created for B.Net roleplaying. You wanna talk to him? His SN is Stellar-Soldier.

Now then, Peace out noob. >=)

Changelog:

2007-04-01: I made assault charge a constant 25sec cooldown, lowered the bash effect on psionic shield to 1.2 sec stun. Made Archletham an orb effect, and gave Psionic Wave Pulse a major nerf. Oh and I also slowed his attack speed. Hope that fixes things.

Ok its time that Blackie talks...

Now,1st skill is a early game nuke that should have a lot lesser cooldown.

2nd has too much mana cost and the effects dont cover it.

3rd How much does the corruption last?
Should be an orb effect..

Ulti:What will happen if all your MP is empty?Too much damage it deals..
Mana cost and damage should be nerfed.

Overall:This hero needs some work with the skills and is a little IMBA.

W8ing other comments till rating.

nice one hhehehhehheeheheh

3 By newbie 2007-03-30

black angel has to many comments but his slight right

4 By Shimrra_3 2007-03-30

All cooldowns are retardedly high, fix those. Make Psionic Shield do ministuns (see Tiny) instead of full power stuns, thats too rigged. Otherwise seems alright. I like the ideas, this seems cool, rating after more views/comments/fixes.

5 By Shimrra_3 2007-03-30

Oh boy I just noticed, he has really high movespeed combo'd with excellent range. No no no, bad. And very high stats too (debatable).

6 By GaNkStA 2007-03-30

Bring move speed down to 305 i reckon, so good ideas tho, and im guessing Assualt doesnt cancel out the Psionic Wave Thing?

7 By Dimnot4leash 2007-03-30

the first skill is like waveform, but with a damn high cooldown

8 By Tokemus 2007-03-30

this guy is basically anti str, agi, and int. needs to be nerfed

9 By raz 2007-03-30

first 2 skills, need better cooldown, the third skill makes you melee for 25 secs. Can that be deactivated so you can go back to ranged? or are you forced to be melee for 25 secs? Last the ulti at level drains more mana then does damage, you can drain up to 1080 mana? Bard Man gets back to back dream heroes up, and with both you fail to elaborate much in the Discussion.

10 By donchovi 2007-03-30

the first ability is like morph's wave ability, the sheild is like abbadon's sheld, but does it explode doing damage around the hero and how much damage can the sheild absorb?, the final--why the channeling? and if ur gonna make it so it drains/damages mana then make the damge reduced (lets say 2-4 mana damage), the final is very similar to the torment soul aka keeper in ladder. the final ability is gonna make this hero difficult. i mean an agl hero??? getting int items/mana boost items. oh..the third ability is mana too?, make it passive or something

11 By donchovi 2007-03-30

nvm i just read it make u melee. yea... for an agl hero this guy needs a lot of mana.

12 By Bard Man 2007-03-30

Alright... Alright... The Ult is Imba. I admit it! Along with making up skills, it seems I have a talent for making up uber ults. Ok when it comes to psionic shield, no. It doesn't hurt people when it falls. When your mana runs out the shield collapses leaving you open to direct damage. I guess the stun is a little uber for it. Gonna have to fix that... As for Archletham: You are stuck as a melee hero for the duration of the spell. Next, Assault will not cancel out the ult being Active. Another thing, Making Archletham passive would be crazy if you mixed it with something like the Assault cuirass. you'd have -15 armor during a chase. I'll get working on some fixes for him. In the mean time I'll leave him up. Well, better get started! And a big sorry if I over did it.

Pretty cool hero

14 By Firesky 2007-03-30

ok warcraft and starcraft have a difference and the difference is its medival warfare and weopons - the gonlin tinker he reminds me of a templar/ archon from starcraft i wonder y....psionic shield and psionic pulse wave other than that i like the skills / effects/ good hero overall

15 By nazarite 2007-03-30

Assault should not have a high cooldown since its a skill that depends on where you are facing so it can be a bit like Shadow Fiends Shadowraze.
Second Skill is a little Imba since the stun is for 2 sec.... gotta change that
The third skill is cool but combining it with a high movespeed will be too Imba plus its not an Orb Effect.
Ulti is too much, must nerf damage and mana burn....
Question, what do you mean by releasing pulses in a 500 AoE, is it like Luna's Eclipse which tagets units randomly or is everbody in the AoE affected? Please clear it up...
Overall, too Imba but great Hero Idea.....

16 By Bard Man 2007-03-31

Ehh... Sorry about not being too clear with him. First off, I will lower the cooldown for Assault Charge since you all think it's too high. Gonna bring psionic shield down a bit to maybe a fraction stun. Gonna make Archletham and orb effect and maybe add something too it. Gotta fix the ult eventually. I promise that I will.

17 By ttaylor 2007-03-31

cooldowns seem wayyyy too long, but cool idea i 'spose

18 By Greedygood 2007-04-02

I like the skills. The shield looks very expensive to cast, because this guy isn't an INT hero, and 40 mana/second + activation is huge.

I don't like the picture - he looks like something that didn't make a Star Wars set. :/

7/10

19 By bleach00 2007-04-02

i tought that cooldowns should probably go down and not up

20 By elrich 2007-04-03

Last skill...to weak i think it can't kill str hero....

21 By `UnholY` 2007-04-03

30 mana in each pulse? 12x30 = 360 mana? buff it a bit... and the damage 50x12 = 600 damage? only a buffed level 1 finger of death and a buffed level 4 mana burn for a level 3 ultimate skill...

22 By Bard Man 2007-04-04

Ungoly, the old version had a little over 900 damage, and raped over 1000 mana. Shut the hell up. Also, 360 mana isn't that big of a deal unless you're fighting a hero with very low int. I.E. Tanks. this guy was meant to be a tank buster. That's what I'm leaving him as. As for your comment greedy, thanks. you're probably the only person who gets my general idea. The pic was the best I could find so sorry, but it really doesn't matter as long as he kicks noob ass.

23 By mjs 2007-04-04

its ok.

24 By TOPAK™ 2007-04-11

Comment: Good hero. But the cooldowns' of most skills are darn long... Good synergy with Anti Mage too, last skill + Mana Void.

Rating: 7/10

Cool idea.I like it.Not much strong for me.

26 By aznchaos 2007-05-02

sux hhaha jk jk don't get mad

27 By mynameisnicd 2007-09-18

hmm..a bit imba as it may seem.
make him a melee hero instead. that would be fun.

28 By War_Wrecker 2007-10-19

hmmm, just 1 little question, does assault charge work JUST LIKE A BLINK, or do you get stopped by terrain,

29 By Artimon 2007-10-29

40 mana per sec. thats hell of a lot for a non ult, how much does leshrac's cost?

30 By AXCELACCEL 2007-11-21

nice idea

31 By Cloudzstrife 2007-12-08

Nice idea and story but you should decrease his movement speed because it is too high for a range hero and since he already have his first skill which is similiar to morphling's waveform except you don't go through stuff just enemies. So say decrease it too like 300 or a bit less.His ulti is pretty nice in that in doesn't deal too much damage but also burn mana but you should put more mana cost on it.
Overall Good idea. Keep working.

32 By KrayZspYne 2008-01-25

most of the cooldowns seem on the high side^^ might wanna blow em down to a little less like 15 sec or something anyways good hero idea, it would be enjoyable

33 By baadshah 2008-02-15

Not the best of ideas

34 By ParaZito 2008-03-17

i can say anything but, !ASTIG!

35 By Bard Man 2008-04-23

Lies. You can say more.

36 By extasy 2008-06-20

Why can't u be damn more original!!! 1st skill is timewalk+dmg = sux. 2nd skill = Part of kraken shell + craggy exterior = sux. Good that it isn't passive. 3rd is desolator + cuirass in 4 hits come on... too long CD though. Ultimate is epicenter with same channel but without slow and mana burn... Won't rate -_-
