It's not that bad :) However I lowered it a bit :) She starts with 68 + 18 (total: 86) damage. That's not much. Varian starts with 95 dmg. When he picks dps ult, his damage increases by 100%, while Araneae's damage now increase only by 70%. He has 1.25 attack per second, Araneae has only 1.05 attack per second. Lower attack, lower bonuses and lower damage increase is balanced with her Spiderlings. Anyway, I lowered some stats a little bit. Thanks for your opinion!

Thanks! I just modified it a bit. So: -I gave him a proper name: Chortler. I think it should work well with a Treasure Goblin, heh. -What was his 2nd ult, now is an optional activated talent player may take at level 20. It was replaced with a Rain of Gold, which can make him a bit more useful for his team and... well, he may cause quite a chaos with it, I believe. -The speed bonus for capturing mercenary camp is there so he could make a small combo with his ult. Once there is some enemy...

He starts with only 5% bonus, because thanks to his trait, he may also get +16% to moving speed. That already gives him 21%. I think making it higher would be a bit OP. There is this talent on level 7 ("Really Really Fast") which gives him additional +5% and I'm not sure if that's not too much. Anyway, because you're not the first one who's asking about bribing mercenaries, I added talent on level 13 that allows him to use 3 stacks and bribe one mercenary. Note that this merc...

I believe it would feel weird to bribe enemy hero. I buffed the skill though. The mana cost is lower now, minions are slightly buffed (may be buffed even more with talents) and it is Goblin's team who get experience for killing the minion if it dies while the effect is still there. Also, if killed during bribe, it will drop a gold piece.
