Ok, I think this hero is almost ready to be implimented. But, what about skill combos with other heroes?

You combo him with any number of other heroes and he wins the game.

But lets be honest, he is the King of Spiders, Lord of Webs, he doesn't need to combo his skills with anybody in order to do good. He has webs, webs, webs, webs, and more webs that let him use his other webs more. I don't think it would be fair to let those combo with other abilities.

Damn, and I was hoping for Webstrike, where he coats Rue's sword with webs and everything Rue attacks gets stuck to his sword and unable to move.

Just because yak wanted combos, I've decided to humor him with a picture.
Adding skill one ontop of the volcano that emberwraith creates, it shoots webs that stick people to the ground. And it does damage I guess.

Every king of spiders must have fangs! Or at least a poisenous moustache.

Bump.

The poll is showing overwhelming majority for the addition of Arachnus, King of Spiders, Lord of Webs, Ruler of New Web City.

Have you considered making him a neutral merc hero so that all factions can share his greatness?

I was thinking about how to create this hero, but I realized I'm lacking a vital peice of information: does he spin webs, or just shoot them?

From the diagrams, it seems like he might do both.

At the same time.

Why doesnt he have a skill where he spins and then spins webs and shoots these spinning webs in all directions?
