After a month-long poll, the new hero to be implemented in Heroes of Newerth upon release will be the Geomancer-like Intelligence hero. With an attack damage as 45-55 and a range of 500, it should be thought of as a supporter hero.
The hero holds four spells. The first spell is 'Dig' which allows the hero to burrow underground and resurface with great force.When surfacing a big explosion will emerge, stunning and dealing damage to enemies.
The yet unnamed hero also holds 'Quicksand', an ability to create a pit of quicksand at a targeted location. Each charge affects -20% movement speed.
'Earth's Grasp' is a rock hand that erupts from the ground which have the ability to move back enemy units. Level on edamage only hits 75 magic damage, ut the hand can move the unit back 200 units.
For its ultimate spell, the hero has 'Fossilization'. Placing the spell on an enemy turns the enemy to stone. The target will take damage if it's not moving or moving slowly. The spell is dispeled after the target has run 1000 units.
Other heroes in the poll included a gamer hero with a Death Knightish feel, and a chaotic hero with dark magic.
The unit is subjected to change in terms of numbers and theme, but the skill concept will remain.
Yeah, geomancer was my choice as well
