Heroes of the Storm Build Concept: The Overmind

Combat Trait

1

Manifested Hunger

Your hero replaces the core.

The Overmind starts with the same hp of a normal core but without shield.
To compensate you gain a stack of 'Enhanced Regeneration' per 33% of hp you have, each stacks grants more hp regen.

Since the Overmind can't be slain like a normal hero during the match, every structure the Overmind infests, when destroyed, gives the enemy team an amount of xp equal to the amount of a normal hero kill (in addition to the base passive bonus.

Starting Stats (scaling stats):
21000 Health Points (+600hp/min)
0 Shield Points (no scaling)
100 hp/s (+6hp/min)
0 Attack damage (no scaling)

2

Infinite Hunger

The Overmind continuosly generates creep which spreads from him to the enemy core.

The Overmind Creep buffs allied zerg unit on it and damages enemy structures.

The further the creep goes, the slower the spread will be.
(In other words, at min 0:00 you have 100 spread speed while at min 20:00 you have like 40 spread speed)
