Deinacrida, Cricket of Doom

Post by Rising_Dusk » Wed Nov 04, 2009 2:33 am

Deinacrida
Cricket of Doom
Agility; Order. (Because I said so)

Level 1 Skill:
Screech
  • Point Blank AOE.
    All nearby foes are muted for X seconds and immediately begin fleeing directly away from Deinacrida's position. Enemy units recover from this after X seconds.
Level 1 Skill:
Jitterbug
  • Target Point.
    Deinacrida hops to target point. If there were no enemies at target point, this ability has no cooldown. (Cooldown and mana cost scale down with level)
Level 1 Skill:
Plague of Insects
  • Passive.
    If a unit is killed by Deinacrida or one of its children, an X-level, collisionless Baby Cricket of Doom is spawned from its corpse that inflicts bleed with its attacks for 4 seconds. Only Y number of spawns can be alive at once.
Level 6 Ultimate:
Cricket Rage
  • Passive, On-Attack.
    Deinacrida and all of his children deal a bonus X magickal damage with attacks to enemies for each condition the enemy suffers from.
Vinny disgraced the name of Deinacrida, so I was forced to make amends.

This cricket of dewm is bound to pwn. I was hoping there'd be some jumping skill and I saw Jitterbug and went...

Alright man if you say so. Can't wait to see his character story and how he became affiliated with the order.

He may not neccesarilly join just because Dusk suggested him.

Anyhow, as for the hero, kickass. Jitterbug in patricular is indeed winnar.

I just put him on the Order because I don't like the Bane getting all of the technical-cool heroes. (This is why I am glad Janise' skillset is on the Order)

Word. The Order does need more cool heroes, I agree. Just thought Cricket of Doom would be a weird title for an Order hero.

If I actually made him, I am 110% sure I wouldn't actually give him the title Cricket of Doom.

Impossible. The man who calls his movement speed bonus items "Booties" cannot call a hero "Cricket of Doom"? What is this? Oh and you can't be 110% sure. Unless you keep his name, then it's fine.
Call him Sanskrit.

Could Jitterbug make all his minions hop? There is nothing more scary than a flight of hopping locusts.

It would be cool, but 30 hopping units on a 0s cooldown is just asking for framerate lag. Maybe it could work if the cricket count were decreased to something more manageable.

Or you could make them hop in a manner they were created. For example Cricket hops, 2 secs later Baby 1 hops, 3 secs later Baby 2 hops... Or only those nearby? Or limit the number of hopping babies.

Those are all viable options as well, yes. I think the staggered hops would probably look the coolest.
