Myrmidon : Upcoming Hero Preview by S2Diva




 A denizen of Newerth's uncharted depths, Myrmidon has arisen to check the Hellbourne advance before it reaches his beloved seas. Like the ocean whose form he can take on, Myrmidon is powerful, fickle, and at times even cruel. With his ability to transform into a monster of terrifying strength and power, some question where his loyalties truly lie, but his might is certainly a welcome aid to the Legion in the war against the daemons.

Abilities:

Weed Field: Myrmidon calls forth a line of seaweed from the ground in a line in target direction to bind his enemies after a short delay. Bound units are stunned and take magic damage over time.

Magic Carp: Myrmidon sends his fish friend after target enemy unit. The magical carp will follow the target until it hits, dealing magic damage to and stunning the target if it is moving at the time of impact.

Wave Form: Myrmidon manifests the sea's rage, turning into water and crashing to target location. Enemies he passes through are slowed and have their magic armor reduced.


Forced Evolution: Myrmidon transforms himself, exchanging his ranged attack for more durability and power. In his transformed state, Myrmidon attacks at melee range, dealing magic damage to and slowing the target with each hit.





Coming to a Newerth near you on Friday, Dec. 3rd 2010.

It has got to be said. STOP MAKING NEW HEROES AND ADDRESS THE INSANE NUMBER OF BUGS AND BALANCE ISSUES!

Look at all the heroes that are never played anymore: Zephyr, Ophelia, Tempest, Blacksmith, Gauntlet, Accursed, Bloodhunter, Fayde, Magebane... need I go on?

Maybe spend a little time trying to fix the insanely awful pathing problems that are responsible for so many unjustified deaths. Its stuff like this that will force players to move over to DotA 2 when it comes out, because Valve actually know how to make a bug-less game.

WTF dude? im sure u an 1200 pub kid or just a nub.


techies is an horrible hero, maybe is fine to em players, but hon is + competitive than Dota.

hon dosnt need EM heros.

but i agree whit the rest of ur comment. more ports or Dream heros (just the good heros, of course.

@charliemoritz

I love Valve very much and await for the obviously impending success of Dota 2 (The Dota community will definitely, without a doubt, support it). But, I don't see how Valve makes "bugless" games. If there's any game out there that has a crapload of bugs, it's usually from Valve. Although they do fix the bugs frequently, more bugs pop up. However, the idea that they actually fix bugs frequently is a good thing and I can say S2 is just a bit slower than Valve (amount of experience and resources) in addressing those problems. New heroes are a great way to keep interest in the game every now and then (Wasn't so hyped with bombardier though..). It's just like TF2 getting updated with more weapons and hats. Regarding those heroes that you mentioned, I still see most of them in public games (except maybe ophelia who never was THAT popular to begin with except the pros and those who want to learn her). Other than that, Tempest and Accursed are pretty common in 1600+ and high-level games which leads me to ponder where you got your assumptions. Just saying and best of luck to you.

P.S. ANOTHER WATER-BASED HERO? BUBBLES IS ENOUGHHHH

#charliemoritz. There isnt any heroes such as unbalanced ones. the heroes u rambeled on where just the ones that is harder to play. Making new heroes leads to a new, even greater intrest, makes me wanna play even more. I would rather see new heroes and earn som skiiiiilz with them instead of playing an old hero like pyro. GOGO new heroes of newerth! And i have been playing this game for quiet some time. bugs, i dont know what ur talking about rly :P

" because Valve actually know how to make a bug-less game."

Not one bug? Interesting.

No I want techies so I can have "lol kills" L2R please tard.

Dorian said...

Another S2 op hero. They have no imagination for creating new heros, all their heros have stun and slow. They should keep proting dota heros or use the fucking Dream page to see a good suggestions

fuck dota dota sucks no1 wants ports fucking ass game

Anonymous said...

They should do hon similar to LoL (i mean with the heroes). LoL creates new heroes every 2 weeks, so the players are still interesting to the game...



Sorry for my bad eng*

This hero is meh.. they need some new ideas instead of stealing others heroes spells and putting them in new heores.

1st spell - sounds a lot like faydes spell himm maybe witch slayer?
2nd spell - gauntlets ult? maybe andro?
3rd spell - this is just a better version of krakens spell, even madman has this shit.
4th spell - Ok this was the one that i was really disappointed with. Its Wild Souls and malakans Ult in one... why would you even think this is unique?

I want something new.. Bomber was new.. chipper was new. this is nothing but the same old shit

who is he in dota???

Anonymous said...

1st skill is Twin headed freezy path
2nd is like phantom's spirit lance
3rd is morphling's waveform
4th is kinda new, or cheap wildsoul's

HoN...wtf?

solera, panas y dominĂ³! said...

Even if HoN is a game meant for competition, some gamers play it to have fun (like me, that I play with friends but I try to keep my PSR acceptable between 1500-1600). I would LOVE to have techies, whatever you people may say, I would like to have my "lol kills" :P... btw Techies is not horrible, IT IS FUN! Techies for the next heroe plox. (I support that Nymphora sucks now, and Accursed does not suck, I own matches with that char, if you dont know how to use it then you suck :); sadly, Nymphora was WAY better before)...
