Thunderous Apocalypse is a lot better, I am sure you can see the difference on your own. :)

The only thing I fear about the icons is the lack of the WarCraft III feeling. They mostly fit Guildwars, if you ask me!
 
Instead of giving up, I decided to change my choice of hero to Primeval Hunter, but now with little time to work, I don't think it will be as good as it could.

Charge

204181-albums4594-picture65453.png

The Primeval Hunter charges towards a target enemy unit, stunning it on impact and damaging it.

Level 1 - Stuns the unit for 2 seconds and deals 100 damage.
Level 2 - Stuns the unit for 4 seconds and deals 200 damage.
Level 3 - Stuns the unit for 6 seconds and deals 300 damage.

Causes a Heavy hit if the Primeval Hunter has rage counters.

Heavy Hit reduces a targets armor by 2 points for every rage counter, lasts for 6 seconds.

Cleave

204181-albums4594-picture65454.png

A visious swipe that strikes all enemies infront of the Primeval Hunter.

Level 1 - Deals 100 damage.
Level 2 - Deals 200 damage.
Level 3 - Deals 300 damage.

Consumes all rage counters to apply an enrage power, causing the Primeval Hunters attacks to hit all nearby targets for the next 5 seconds.

Cleave attacks deals 20% of normal damage per rage counter consumed.

Impressive.
 
Subject to changes.

Heart Of Rage

204181-albums4594-picture65456.png

Each attack has a chance to aqumilate a rage counter. Rage counters are used to increase the effect of the heroes abilities.

Rage counters lasts for 10 seconds and stacks up to 5 counters.

Level 1 - 20% Chance.
Level 2 - 40% Chance.
Level 3 - 60% Chance.

Adds 10% increased damage and 1 armor for each rage counter.
For now, looks like this:

Very nice work so far, Marcos DAB.

You could make the mouth a lot darker, from the inside, in order to turn it into more frightening. Since it's a debuff (stuns the target), it will appear on the enemy's buff status bar, which is why you should make it more frightening ;)

For the claws, I suggest toning down the lines, because they look like mummified. Unless it is intentional, you could make fur instead.
 
Jolly, that's really cool. But yellow and purple look kinda... well, not that "Aggressive". I mean the icon is very aggressive. It's a shadowy figure moving it's hand forward, attacking I assume and... these colors are too. Well, "happy" and "nice". Probably Red and Orange would look better, but if the spell itself is pink then I'm wrong.

Thanks for the reply. It is difficult to choose a good color scheme here. For that satyr trickster. Will try another combination ...


So here is slight edition

I suggest you retained both of the color schemes, because I am having a hard time choosing either of them. The first one is much more realistic and animalistic, but the blue tone is a lot better from every aspect, except the animalistic.

The fingers were fine, regarding their shape, my concern was the bold lines that you placed all over the grey area, which gives the wrong impression of mummification, instead of fur.

The mouth looks way better than the previous, but I suggest you added a red tone, instead of the color scheme's tone.

Finally, in order to add extra variety, you could make the eyes red, instead of blue. I am pretty confident that the antithesis will be bolder and much more representative of a beastly trait.

The icons has to represent the hero(Primeval Hunter), not a unit specifically.
How I chose the hero that doesn't has a predetermined unit, I'm feel free to create something different. :ogre_hurrhurr:

Oh. But which hero model is used in the submission? I don't see any screenshots and I'm kind of too lazy to download it and check it. :P
 
in terms of color scheme, i'll choose the first one. although it needs more saturation. and like what the others said, the ultimate looks strange. personally i'd change the facial structure of the human part to make it look more...well.. human.
 
Final entry.
Primeval Hunter
204181-albums4594-picture65995.png

I chose this color scheme, more animalistic. Whereas it is something animalistic/bestial.

Even if this isn't good enough, the deadline already expired, and I have no more time to work.

Compared to your previous works i think these are kinda pixelated, atleast the first 3, the fourth seems just a bit too red imo :P
It took me some time to realize whats happening in ur third icon there, if you could somehow make it more defined maybe by showing the ears more or make the eyes red? ;)
The second icon is a bit boring, the red ring looks kinda out of place/theme and it could use some more..hmm special effects?^^

I think you did a really great job at making the icons portray a wolf, there is no doubt it's a wolf creature and not some other monster ;)
