Hero Contest #5 - Science Fiction

[Lord_Earthfire]

Here is an almost finished version of my hero. He just needs some fine tuning here and there and some polishing. (And a Documentation)

This will be my entry when i don't submit a final submission (it will come in the next two days probably, but i can never know)

I changed the ultimates name to "sticking bomb" to make it fitting to the new concept of the bomb being thrown nto the target and being dropped on the targets death.

 

[mckill2009]

and I know the blademaster doens't fit as a jedi

it's a joke, that's why I add "lol"...the new model's mask looks like ironman though...whrs the map?...

 

[scorpion182]

wow, so many good entries here

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Since I can't even find a simple lightsaber model that doesn't look like shit, and since I'm too lazy to make it myself, I've decided to replace my Throw Lightsaber spell with something I've just called "Force Grip". I won't tell you what it is though (no, it's not like in KOTOR) :>

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA.

 

[baassee]

Force Grip and Force Push seem both unoriginal to me TRD. Dunno but we have to blame the source of it, Star Wars.

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Force Grip will not be made like in Star Wars.
Remember this:

(no, it's not like in KOTOR)

?

Also, I don't have any Force Push spells :>

Most of my spells, although Star Wars inspired, will be fairly original.

 

[WerePhoenix]

Tomorrow is the end...

I think i will be able to upload it, but only tomorrow.

@-Kobas- cool hero. u might want to put hidden tags on that. and stormbringer, i think doesn't fit his name or the theme. i mean something more futuristic maybe? But cool spells.

And the songs. it took me 5 minutes to read 1 spell description bcoz of the distraction from the songs.

I just realized now that I'm posting, that I should have just muted the music... Poop what an idiot I am. Late realization...

I'm glad that you liked
Yeah it was bothering day so I just added that into map.

Activate Inner Power and then use Leap of Thunders

 

[Dirac]

For all participants, please make sure to have a big "this is my final submission" like -Kobas- just did. (If you only submit the WIP and not the final submission I wont evaluate it, and I think this goes against the rules but i don't care if you didn't submit a WIP before your final submission, hopefully i'll receive a list from Pharaoh including all "valid" submissions before grading. I guess WIPs are for getting feedback out from other users, as a judge i wont provide any)

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Either host of the contest either creator of the poll will collect all the entries. The entries are always the last post of a user, unless he/she states differently. Even WIPs are judged, in some cases, if there are not later entries, and user says so.

 

[scorpion182]

any extension?

 

[Pharaoh_]

Do you really need it?

Nerovesper's Hero Submission

Video Trailer(See him in action)

[TD][/TD]

Radius Impulse, the Millennium Force

[TD][/TD]

Strength:	16 (+2.0 per lvl)
Agility:	14 (+1.5 per lvl)
Intelligence:	22 (+2.9 per lvl)
Primary:	Intelligence
Attack Range:	100
Race:	Unknown (Could be Protoss?)
Hero Role:	Universal Caster

	XT Vortex	Armed with an advance knowledge in space, the Millennium Force summons a machine that can distort the very essence of time in an area. Rips the space the machine was created through a vortex, reducing the speed of nearby enemy units and slowly pulling them to the center. But if Polarity Switch was on upon creation, it increases nearby allies' movespeed and healing them as nearby enemy units are slowly pushed away from the center instead.
	High Voltage	Due to a creation of high voltage force, the Millennium Force gains bonus armor for a duration and summons a replica of him in his position. His replica releases electric waves every second and destroys itself after, from the intensity of the explosions. The waves deal a much heavier damage the closer the enemy is from the replica. But if Polarity Switch was on upon creation, the damage deal heavier the further the enemy.
	Polarity Switch	The Millennium Force's talent of lightning control gives him an advantage in his role and manipulation of his other abilities. Upon activation, surges opposite electrical currents in his body that will allow him to pass through units for a second. As a mastery, it passively adds damage to his attacks. But if this ability is turned on, it slows nearby enemy units instead.
	NV1.8 Force Field	Channels very powerful static energies around the Millennium Force, summoning a field of static force field with electric fences. Enemies inside the field will take continuous damage, and upon leaving or entering through the electric fences, they will lose mana, have their positive buffs removed and become slowed for a duration. But if Polarity Switch is on, the field will burn mana instead of health, and leaving or entering the field will result in health loss and become slowed and silenced for a duration. (Channeling)

Highly complex and powerful hero. If used wisely, it can do different roles and deal heavy blow to mass enemies. A melee intelligence hero with an advantage of its own.

Thanks to Apheraz Lucent for the vB codes

------------------

Decided to make a melee intelligence hero since melee maps don't have them.
Had to remake this serveral time and I can't find suitable "red and blue" icons here at hive.
I had to make them myself by combining Blizzard Icons and they still suck...
Documentation was killing me and so did that video...

Random Rant

This has got to be the most worked-up thing I did in the year 2011. I hibernated most of the year. Wasted 11 months and 12 days of my life sleeping.

The reason I made a video is to practice using Vegas Pro 10. I had this program for a long time and it seems to be unused. Oh wait, I guess from sleeping most of the time I never get to use anything with the exception of Google Chrome... I use it even in my freaking dream...
Btw, video upload took me like 2 and 1/2 hours.

 

[Xian]

That has got to be the most epic hero yet.. nice trailer
Anyway did you recolor the icons to make it fit?

 

[nerovesper]

Yea, but I suck at it, btw, uploaded the file there. Hope it doesn't suck too much.

 

[Amn]

Hello, i want to participate on this contest.
This is my first post at hive and my final submission for the contest.

Str hero named PowPow. ( i did it in 3 days for this contest! )
theme fits "presence of advanced technology, robotics and/or improved weaponry"

You play a human made robot, your mission is to defend a human base from aliens. This is a supply base that harvests energies and aliens try to destroy it.
Now it's being evacuated and you have to defend it.

some screenshots

4 cute spells, really.
map attached. cheers !

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Lets see if I get this mad Jedi Sith ready before the deadline

Anyway, a collection (3 images xD) of lolwtf WIPs:

:O

A Sith in mid-air? What trickery is this?!

Oooh, but why is the icon a lightsaber? :O O:

DIEEEEEE!!! Uuuh, why am I doing this again?

 

[Pharaoh_]

Epic! ;]

Thank you.

 

[baassee]

Finally entries are piling up.

@nerovesper

Nice video, heavily inspired by Trailers by Heroes of Newerth. So is the hero itself, strongly inspired by Flux. Although the spells are quite different, interesting indeed.

@Amn

I'm afraid that you cannot join as you clearly not followed the rules.

@TRD

Is it just me or why can't I see the images? :S

IKR. After listening to that music intro I just had to use it.

And ya, I have thought of pull or push for his ulti like flux's but I realized it was for a melee map. His ulti would have sucked more.

 

[-Kobas-]

Damn, I need video, no one want to comment mine

 

[nerovesper]

@Amm - Cool spells. I especially liked the laser and the bait. The spells are too overpowered though. They could use a fix in balance.

@The_Reborn_Devil - Don't sith fly? Magnethic powers of some kind? x)

@-Kobas- - I did.
But seriously man, you should change the name Stormbringer to something more futuristic. Usually names like those were used medieval times. Or that's just how I see it? Not really sure.

I think here are the submission so far:

mckill2009 - "Elite Plasmeon"
Arti3DPlayer - "Techno Dwarf"
-Kobas- - "Stormbringer"
nerovesper - "Millennium Force"
Amn - "PowPow"

Did I miss anyone?

 

[Vengeancekael]

OMFGSOCOOLVIDEO

I kind of liked the ulti, but the rest of the spells was kind of unoriginal and not so much fun.
Also the trail left by the second skill is too messy, you can't see a thing, it would be better if you removed the ghost of the character and just used the lightning effects.
(Also how about you mute the main warcraft music, I'd like to listen to the custom music, it's just so awesome)

 

[The Reborn Devil]

@TRD

Is it just me or why can't I see the images? :S

They work for me
Could be dropbox though, since that's what I'm using. Dropbox has been weird lately.

Anyway, if fear I might have to cut down on something, since I only got a few hours left to work, and, hehe, I suck at prioritizing, so I haven't worked that much :>
Also, I had to remake a spell that was almost done D:

 

[WerePhoenix]

A supportive hero, adept at disables.

Stats
-Attributes: [Strength 14 + 2.2] [Intelligence 18 + 3] [Agility 14 + 0.80]
-Movement speed: 270
-

Spoiler

No auto attack

XVII-7 Shells Kes'tar shot a single target in a big range, dealing damage based on distance and intelligent	Energy Grenade Kes'tar shot a grenade, that stun the enemy and knock Kes'tar back.	Optical Camouflage For a continual manacost Kes'tar will be invisible and his abilities get bonus effect.	Psionic Lockdown Kes'tar uses his mind to lock down his enemy's brain

For the larger description read the tooltips.

Thank you!

Pyramidhe@d - for the model
The_Silent - for the shot icon
bigapple90 - for the grenade icon
CRAZYRUSSIAN - for the ultimate icon

I say also thank you!

Blizzard - for World Editor
Pharaoh_ - for making this contest
my brother - for the hero's icon
And everyone else, who see this hero

SPOILER strategy

Energy grenade + Optical camouflage is a great escape
Optical camouflage + Energy granade help to use Psionic Lockdown
Energy grenade + XVII-7 shells can be used to deal maximum damage
Optical camouflage + Energy grenade + XVII-7 shells + Psionic Lockdown + XVII-7 shells is his ultimate combo (the shot in the middle is good becouse it restore mana and while you cast your ultimate the cooldown will end)

For the map : View attachment Hero Contest No. 5.w3x
for hero spawn type -hero
for item spawn type -items (at the bottom of the map)

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Damn, as always, I have to accept the fact that I can't seem to get things done in time xD

Too much LoL and homework :/

I'll let you guys see what I have though, which, even though it may look like much when you check the triggers, isn't really that much. Only 1 spell I can truly say is done, and 2 others that are almost done. I never got a chance to start at the passive spell though. Hurr durr, I will release it in the spells section once it's done though, so don't fret :>

Oh, and the test map sucks balls btw.

Link: TRD's Herp Contest Entry. If you, the judge, feel like you have too much time, then by all means, judge what you can judge.

Edit: Oh, almost forgot this:

<Too lazy to get image>

[TD][/TD]

Darth Baleous, the Sith

[TD][/TD]

Force Grip	Don't have description for this one xD
Force Jump	The jedi uses the force to jump towards a target position. Upon impact the jedi will erect a force barrier in a certain AOE around him, keeping all enemy ground units from leaving or entering the area.
Force Sustenance	Force Rage: In this mode his attack is slightly enhanced by the force. Additionally, while being attacked in this mode the jedi's rage is continuously fuelled and upon reaching a certain limit he will use this deep pool of rage to unleash a quick flurry of attacks with his lightsaber upon random enemies around him. This sudden burst will however also penalise him with some HP loss, and can result in death. Force Preservation: In this mode the jedi is generating a force field around himself that will reduce the impact of enemy attacks. Also, whenever he slays a foe he'll use the force to grab pieces from them to apply quick fixes on himself. These repairs will then be held in place by the force, however he will not be able to hold the repairs in place forever. As a consequence, these repairs will be temporary and this can potentially reach a point where he lives entirely on burrowed life. Note: Switching mode will nullify the "rage pool" that is generated in Force Rage as well as all burrowed life gained via Force Preservation. The latter can potentially be fatal.
Force Cataclysm	The jedi focuses all his powers on a targeted area, sending crushing force waves from random angles towards the core, pushing enemies inwards and dealing damage. Enemies inside will also have reduced movement speed and defence.

He's a sith, need I say more?

Descriptions here may differ from what they are in the test map. I just CnP'd those from a previous post.

Lol creds to Apheraz Lucent for lol vB

 

[Lord_Earthfire]

This is my entry, thanks for the template goes to Apheraz Lucent

[TD][/TD]

Sam, the Combat Engineer

[TD][/TD]

Agility:	15 (+1,2 per lvl)
Strength:	19 (+1,7 per lvl)
Intelligence:	20 (+2,5 per lvl)
Attack Range:	500
Affiliation:	Human
Hero Role:	Universal Support

	Take-over	The engineer goes into the targeted mechanical unit, controling it while being able to enchance the targed while occupied (The enhancements are affected by the level of this ability).
	Repair drones	Releases (4/5/6) drones upon a target mechanical unit, healing it until the drones are destroyed, the spell is recasted on the same target or their lifespawn of 20 seconds ends. Each drone heals 2 health per second and possesses 75 health.
	Nanite field	Spreads nanites all around the engineer, fortifiing the machines around him, increasing the maximal health by (25/50/75).
	Sticking bomb	Throws a bomb towards the target, sticking it on the unit. After 30 seconds the bomb explodes, killing the unit and dealing 300 damage in an area of 300. If the unit is killed first, the bomb will drop on the ground, ticking further.

One on mechanical units depending supportive hero, which can be used in defensive ways to protect your own mechanical units while disturbing your enemy, or which can be used offensive to confuse your enemy by conquering his units while blowing up other ones. Althought he is quite tricky to play because of his low casting range, he has the potential to ruin your enemy's tactics just by disturbing him.

I'm sorry for not adding a good documentation how to implement him into a map, in fact, you just need to implement a recycling indexing system (even if it is not the best one, a change of the custom value of a unit would bug with sticking bomb and repair drones), a hashtable, a system which increased the max hp of a unit and a movement system, which is probably the heart of the spells i made.

Credits go to:

Modelcreator:
Kwaliti for the "T-51b Power Armor Unit (Non-TC)" model (Cobat Engineer)
M0rbid for the "Alien Drone" Model (Repair Drone)

Kwaliti for the "Power Helmet" Icon (Combat Engineer)
Kola for the "Drone Armor" Icon (Repair drones)
Matarael for the "mine" Icon (Engine bomb)
InfinityNexus for the "AutoRepairBots" Icon (Nanite-field)
Crowolf for the "Power Grip2" Icon (Take-over)

Edit: Yes i really couldn't find a better name for the hero O.

Edit2: Damn, i forgot to even add a loading screen or a description, this is really not my week

 

[WerePhoenix]

I don't know, if i did forgot anything. That's all i could do. I wish the best. We'll meet (hopefully) in the poll.

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Since I was busy, I am not able to complete my entry. I will create a poll once the contest ends (If you wish to do so, Pharaoh_, let me know).

Good luck to everyone!
