I hope Goblin Alchemist makes it in at some point. He's definitely got the most interesting set of skills when it comes to the remaining Warcraft 3 heroes.

No... but shadow hunter's problem is that his abilities have all been used on other heroes (rehgar's chain heal, bw's poly, gazlowe's turret, sanct). A hero with his moveset would be tough to make feel unique.

The thing that immediately jumps out at me is giving him Healing Ward as a basic ability. Hex & Serpent Ward could be replaced with a simple debuff & skillshot, or something as complex as a Toad of Hugeness or the like. Kinda depends on his overall role, you know?

Looks like they're trying to make him work as either an off-laner or main tank.

No idea if this is legitimate, but it came up as a Mal'Ganis full talent list in a search.

If it is real I would probably go for all the improve basic/life-leech stuff. Though Blind as a Bat would be hard to pass up just for how hilarious it is.

Blind as a bat will be incredible if you're on comms and awful otherwise. Having someone yell LEFT LEFT RIGHT UP UP UP DOWN LEFT and destroying the enemies will be too good to pass up.

Especially with the max hp% on Q talent.

Could be great with some set up like Mosh, Lamb to the Slaughter, or Entomb and you can just go to town on that one spot that you last saw the enemy team stuck in.

Oh is that how you do it? I’ve never been able to figure out how other Tyrande’s keep sticking so many arrows in people. I always take the hunter’s mark talent at 13, which I guess is better for helping people focus down a specific target, but it doesn’t help my numbers so I always scrape the bottom of the damage charts.

attacking is healing for tyrande, and at 13 that hunters mark talent does not help you attack more. I also take trueshot aura at 4 so i alreayd have two hunters marks already

Dark Conversion will just be Protected away most likely, and will have no middle ground between really loving good and really loving bad. You have to be really low to get value out of it, it's not as effective on squishies, and it's not as cool at turning into bats and being invulnerable for a period
