Some words about:

So here it is: Lei Shen. I know that warrior would suit him more, but the skillset turned like this, so it would be shame if he would be a w tried to make him similar to this one from World of Warcraft, however I never seen him in action (I actually made him because I wanted a lightning element hero), so some abilities might be different than these from Mists of Pandaria. I did listen about him and checked his abilities (abilties from the version from World of Warcraft) (as you can see almost all abilities have the same name as the original ones).
As I know, Lei Shen had the Conduit mechanic. I wondered, how I should make it to do not make some boring passive like -8% damage taken or +8% movement speed (this doesn't mean these are bad, it's just I wanted to make something different). After I realized, that enemy heroes may fulfill the Conduit mechanic and empower his abilities, I implemented it here immediately, because it sounded like a great passive ability. The rest also aren't bad as I think (they bring some fresh mechanics and they don't make Lei Shen one-button-hero). Please write, what do you think about this one Lei Shen. Suggestions and feedback as always is very appreciated!
