Heroes of the Storm Build Concept: Soldier: 76 (Completed)

Combat Trait

D - Battle Momentum

For each 3 seconds Soldier: 76 Remains in active combat. (Actively Basic Attacking units or using abilities) he will gain 1% basic attack damage and attack speed, stacking til a maximum of 10%

His Battle momentum will fade entirely should he be hard CC'd (Like stuns or fears) but it will not drop of by lighter CC like slows or roots.

Once Soldier: 76 stops basic attacking or does not use any abilities for 2 seconds: his Battle momentum will start to decay by 1% per second.

Battle Momentum can not be triggered / refreshed / extended by using E - Sprint.

There will be a timer / tracker next to Soldier: 76's portrait that let's him track his trait's progress.

Primary Abilities

Q - Helix Rockets

Fire 3 Helix Rockets to the targeted location.

The Rockets will rather explode upon impact at the targeted location or will damage any hostile unit which may stand in the rockets path.

Heroic Abilities

R - Tactical Visor

Once active: Soldier: 76's basic attack range is removed and is only limited by his field of vision, fog of war and terrain.

While the Visor is active: he can freely basic attack anything hostile as long as the path between said hostile unit and Soldier: 76 is not blocked by fog of war or terrain.

If Soldier: 76's target escapes past the fog of war or rounds terrain to drop his sight - Soldier: 76 will automatically swap to any other hostile target in sight.

Enemy heroes will always be prioritized over minions.

Soldier: 76 can swap targets manually by right clicking them.

The Tactical Visor lasts for 6 seconds.

Skin Suggestions

Basic skin:

1 - Your text to link here...
2 - Your text to link here...
3 - Your text to link here...

Master Skin: Since non of the Legendary Skins for Soldier: 76 from Overwatch fals to my taste - i figured that modified versions of his "Collectors Edition" skin would be cooler.

1 - Your text to link here... (Blue - Black with White)
2 - ( Black - Red with White)
3 - ( Green - Blue with Black)

I also figured that a Starctaft theme skin to mock more at the "Mr. Point and Click 2.0" would be funny. Yet he may end up looking to much like Raynor at that but - it's and id

Sidenote

Yes. I know that among my current concepts this is one of the less creative ones and also the only one where I have DIRECTLY copy-pasted standard talents from the game onto a hero - Yet my goal with Soldier: 76 was not to make something new or refreshing, like i said at the start of this post: he is made to be a "Mr.Point and Click" / Raynor V2. A easy hero to settle into the game with.

Battle-Momentum remember me at the old hatred-stacks of Valla. Also the name is allready used for a generic level 7-talent.

Sprint is like a better mount. Why the player should use the mount-ability then?

[-]

The Sprints movement speed is still about 10% slower than a mount and it's intended use is mostly for "Getting out" of combat as you can't mount in combat + the Sprint has a somewhat drawback in combat unless talented.

I actually forgot that Battle-Momentum was a generic talent name. As for my idèa for the trait - it was mostly to have something that wasn't as "passive" as Raynors trait while still making sennce. I also haven't touched Valla since forever. (She was like my second char to hit level 10 way back when the game launched) so I kinda forgot that it could seem alike.

[-]

I f***ed up. I was imagining that mounted speed was 40% not 30%. Nerfed his Sprint accordingly now.
