Since I saw many people want the next hero to be from StarCraft, I thought why not post my own hero idea, just for fun? If the next hero is indeed going to be from SC (which I doubt tbh), math says it’s going to be a Zerg(6 terran heroes, 6 protoss and 5 zerg). However what I’d like to see in game is a female Protoss, since all Protoss are male, and a Protoss healer, since both Terrans and Zerg have one. My first hero concept, hope it doesn’t look too weird. So here goes:
Universe: StarCraft
Role: Healer
Strengths:
-
Powerful long range healing;
-
Good support;
-
With the right build can become descent range damage dealer;
Weakness:
-
Fragile;
-
Mobility;
Story:
After some LotV intro cinematic, expaining what’s the Khala and how it conects all the Protoss into one with emotions, and stuff. How there are Protoss of many ranks, higher the rank, hier the conection to the Khala. The highest ranking and most attoned with the Khala, being the preservers, and Grand Preservers being the highest of the preservers. How preservers sleep through centuries and how Rohana has awekened in the Nexus;
Trait (D):
One in the Khala: Rohana connects herself and another allied hero in the Khala. All the damage and healing done to one target that’s one in the Khala is equaly distributed among all other heroes connected to the Khala. Works something like Spirit Link in Warcraft 3. Initially can connect with only one hero, but number can be increadsed with talents, to two, and even three in late levels.
Basic Abilities:
Purity of the Khala (Q): Single target heal. (luke Uther and Tyrande Q) If cast on a target that’s one in the Khala, gains an extra charge. Can be upgraded with talents to remove negative effects or give some buffs.
Shield Overcharge (W): Grants shield to an allied hero for a time, which basically works as extra hitpoints. If cast on one in the Khala, that hero is able to regenerate shield as well. With talents can last longer, shorter cool downs etc…
Solar Lance (E): Deals damage in a row in front of Rohana. If it also hits allied heroes that are one in the Khala, they’re healed. With talents deals more damage, longer range cast, maybe deal aeo damage, and at the high level(16?) can be turned into a three way, like in SC2 LotV.
Heroic Abilities:
En Taro Adun (R1): Powerful AoE heal. Heroes that are one in the Khala also recieve a buff.
Amon take over (R2): Rohana becomes red like in LotV cutscenes and becomes a powerful ranged damage dealer for a time. Her Q becomes a Void Ray single target powerful damage dealer. And her W vcomes opening Void Rifts that shoots void projectiles in an area, powerful AoE damage.
