Was watching YT and had a hero idea

Was watching about Acti screw up on one CoD game(like that rarely happens) and had a idea about putting a CoD merc(i know its not liked meshing acti and blizz but a idea is a idea) hero.

Trait: Supply drop 80sec cd.

Drop a supply crate on a spot that can be used once by every teammate.It gives you 15% extra heal,15% aa dmg and 10 armor that lasts 10 sec.
Passive:after doing a AA or using basic ability you cant use any basic ability for 2 sec.

Q: Predator Rifle. 10 sec cd

Switch to Assault rifle.Has best dps and medium (like ray)range.If rifle is equipped
trows a smoke bomb that blinds for 2 sec.If other weapon is equipped pressing Q trows smoke bomb and arms rifle.

W: Shotgun Arms 10 sec cd
Does aoe cone dmg (like GM lvl 20 upgrade),shots slower and has low range. If shotgun is armed using W makes next aa slow and do more dmg.If other weapon is equipped pressing W equips shotgun and shots a target with aa that does more dmg,slows and gives you 10% move speed for 5 sec .

E: Long range engagement. 10 sec cd
Has massive range(hammer range) but has worst dps by far.It shoots like 1 aa every 3 to 4 sec.If sniper is armed E shots a bullet that lowers the target armor by 10 and lowers the healing received by 25% for 5 sec while doing aa dmg.If other weapon is equipped pressing E equips sniper and shoots a aa at target that lowers the target armor by 10 and lowers the healing received by 25% for 5 sec.

Ulti(only 1): Arms master cd depends on weapon equipped.
Rifle: gives 75% attack speed buff for 10 sec cd 70 sec.
Shotgun:Shoots a aa that stuns every one hit for 1.5 sec and aoe is 25%bigger for that shot. 60 sec cd
Sniper:Shots a map wide shot(blocked by buildings just like ana) that does some dmg. 30sec cd.

Did not put numbers due to balance.1 talent tier is making trait better and there can be many that make one gun better then the others.

We should do a custom hero concept ideas thread for HotS, it can be anything, Batman, Mario, Gordon Freeman, Steve, like it was said before… anything.

It would be fun.

The problem is CoD. Everyone hates it except the diehard fans who are to blind to really see activision have been driving it into the ground for the past 7 years or so.

I’m at the point where I just hate everything even remotely CoD related.

You want a hero that can either only auto attack and never use any abilities or only use abilities and never auto attack?

It must be.If not you will spam 2 of em using the last 1 for the weapon you want.He at least need something to prevent you from spamming em.As for numbers they can be changed.

Interesting porting it to SC, but then you kind of need to refactor it to fit an SC unit. It might be interesting having a more mobile Terran unit like a Reaper, but it’s a stretch mapping that to this concept.

Philosophically HotS is a mashup of Blizzard IP’s and thrives on that emotional attachment, it’s a bit of a leap moving beyond that. Unless the idea is to attempt to draw in CoD enthusiasts, at the expense of adding heroes from Blizz IP’s that a majority of people would likely prefer, CoD is kind of a deal-breaker.

I’m also just having trouble fitting this idea into an existing role and imagining it being effective within the context of HotS. Seems like an assassin with more of a support trait. I would probably go back to the drawing board and think about something similar from the Blizz universe, considering which IP’s have the fewest heroes atm.

You could just put a cast time on weapon switching.
