Heroes of the Storm Build Guides
Guardian is Serbii's signature skill. It is an area of effect damage-mitigation toggled ability, representative of Sentries from Starcraft.
Chain Barrier is Serbii's traditional "healing" ability, which as its name states, shields two (or three when talented) targets.
Graviton Bubble is essentially a 1 second ranged, point and click stun, which of course is very a powerful tool.
Negashield is an all-around strong heroic that prevents burst.
Crystal Field is great to make tanks moving force walls, or to protect your mages from enemy melee assassins.
I have some minds/ideas about some stuff:
Lift an enemy off the ground and hold them in the air for 1 second. Then, let them fall and cause 224 (+5% per level) damage to a small area.
One question: Did SERBII need to channel this ability(no movement) and is the target in stasis or attackable?
Serbii extends his barriers to create a large dome around him, granting all allied heroes inside 8% damage reduction and reducing the damage of all incoming projectiles an additional by 12%.
Blizzard dont use ressistences about this numbers. They only use 25%/50%/75%/100%. Maybe increase manacosts and increase ressistence to 25%?
Or a different idea: SERBII become a shield of 600 points. When a closed allied hero take damage, the shield take this damage instead. Last 5 seconds. Cost: 50 Mana Cooldown: 10 seconds (Example values!)
Regarding Guardian, I would love to keep it this way, it's all hypothetical so I'm sticking with that. But yeah thanks for pointing that out, I did not have that in mind. I agree though, I doubt Guardian would make it into the game as is.
Regarding Gravi Bubble, Serbii can cast that with a very slight "stop", think of most abilities were there is a slight cast animation of say .20 seconds. And the target is still open for attacks yes.
Thanks for the comment, always awesome to have some insightful comments around :D Very, very appreciated.

For example Auriel's crystal defends an ally, but enemies just simply don't hit the stasis'd ally. Negashield on the other hand eats up ultimates and focus fire no problem!
And thanks! :D
