Tremble : Hero Spotlight

Just when you thought HoN already had its fill of giant man eating insectoid creatures, Tremble, the newest hero to lurk Newerth is here to horrify you all over again! Tremble and his adorably terrifying sidekick, Shudder, will arrive this Friday

Tremble is AGI Semi Carry and Ganker Hero

So, the answer that Tremble is an original hero, like semi meepo, that he has his junior as his ulti, very funny and cool to play I think, like wildsoul and Booboo.
Well, Tremble is an AGI Hero, with the role as ganker and semi carry, what I love most from Tremble is the Terrorform, creating his own nest like Broodmother, and can be used as portal gate !
I will definitely play this hero on Friday !
Also, what an epic ending by scout playing banjo with never gonna give you up melody,lol

Do you know that "You can have 3/5/7/9 alive at a time, but remember they are killable by enemies" - S2Idejder

Tremble : Upcoming Hero

Hero spotlight on Wednesday, means tomorrow we can see who is Tremble?!

Rumor says it's Geomancer, the INT Ganker community hero contest winner after Gauntlet 
Read about his skill here 
Read more about S2Nome Dev Blog via XLTweet about Serqet, the first name of Geomancer here

And just for your information, the old Tremble concept by S2Nome as the STR Community Hero concept, read that here (But S2Nome confirmed it's just has the same name but not same hero)

Other speculation, is he the Dream Hero by Branfour the Underminer

Hero Spotlight - Gladiator

Version 2.0.18
-------------
- Reverted creep stacking mechanism to allow for 2 stacks (3 camps total)

Patch 2.0.17 - Unicorn Rampage

 Want to use the Pink Pony Rampage Mod?download it here

Version 2.0.17
-------------

- New Alternate Avatar for Rampage: Unicorn Rampage!
* Community Alt Avatar Contest Winner, suggested by Kalium.

- Added a Channeling Bar for heroes with channeling abilities

- Ancient creeps now have 5.5 Magic Armor
* The Dragon Master is no longer Magic Immune, but has 10 Magic Armor

- Fixed shop item tooltips not showing bonuses from modifiers (e.g. Logger's Hatchet, Mystic Vestments)
- Changed the logic of neutral creeps to only use their abilities when there are a number of visible enemy player controlled units instead of just enemy units around them
* This means that they will not use their abilities on lane creeps

- Added order disjoint to creeps that Ophelia (and Whispering Helm) gains control of so they dont mess with other controlled units actions
- Fixed up some of the stringtables
- Fixed an issue that could cause creeps to skip towers very occasionally (when dragged away from the lane at strange angles)

Kongor
- Can no longer be attacked from outside of his lair even with Savage Mace
- Fixed his lair to clean up the places you could attack him from outside

Hero Spotlight - Valkyrie

Unicorn Rampage Win the Contest

Well, someone ask me to post about the winner of the Community Hero Avatar Contest, and the winner is the Unicorn Rampage by Kalium .Congratulation for winning, but im a little bit dissapointed that the female scout didnt win this contest.So soon we will see the unicorn rampage ingame, i think its better to use rampage old concept as the alt.avatar
If you guys forget how is the old concept, here you go :

And while I was browsing the old rampage picture, i find the alternative concept art of Tundra, the Viking, and pretty cool, but i still can imagine about his skills, so what do you guys think about Tundra's Alt.Avt concept, should it be implemented in game or not?

UPDATE : Slither (Ebulus Concept) and More Neutrals?
