Now that I thought about it, sleep is both true to the character and useful in the combo you listed. I guess I was just too hard on something that looks too similar to another character.

Sleep is kinda a useless talent since Ana can already do it from a range, so maybe rethinking the E ability would be good. Otherwise, solid Character, however not as innovative as most new Heroes characters are nowadays (Excluding Overwatch characters).

The idea was use Sleep and Nether Vortex at the target. But for sure I run out of creativity

I like the character. And how close he is to the War 3 Dreadlord. Maybe make sleep a range of 3.5 and they can't be woken up in the first .7 seconds. There is a different dynamic in having an assassin have sleep. I think it is a good ability.
