Hero Idea... any thoughts for balance before I submit?

Posted: Mon Aug 11, 2008 5:46 pm

Gilginsha
A massive brute from the land of giants, Gilginsha is a distant, far less intelligent, cousin to Aggron Stonebreaker. He wrecks anything is his path with horrible strength and resilience. A direct blow from his spiked, tree sized, club will bring any opposition to their knees. Aggron Stonebreaker sent word back to the land of Ogres requesting help for the Sentinel. Gilginsha was more then willing to pull a tree up and make the journey for his long missing cousin.
Range: 135 | Move Speed: 300
Primary: STR

Club
Gilginsha uses all of his might in one mighty blow damaging and stunning opponents.
Level 1 - 50 damage, 1.25 second stun.
Level 2 - 75 damage, 1.5 second stun.
Level 3 - 100 damage, 1.75 second stun.
Level 4 - 125 damage, 2 second stun.
Mana Cost: 85/100/115/130
Cooldown: 15

Crushing Blow
Gilginsha’s massive club can land with such force that all his foes are damaged and stunned by the power. Deals the damage and stun of current Club level.
Level 1 – 7% chance Gilginsha will land a blow that stuns all near by enemies
Level 2 - 10% chance Gilginsha will land a blow that stuns all near by enemies
Level 3 - 13% chance Gilginsha will land a blow that stuns all near by enemies
Level 4 - 16% chance Gilginsha will land a blow that stuns all near by enemies
Mana Cost: 0
Cooldown: Can only activate once every 3 seconds

Thick Skin
Gilginsha’s skin becomes so thick that those who attack him do him little harm.
Level 1 - +2 armor, 6% chance that any attack will do no damage at all
Level 2 - +4 armor, 10% chance that any attack will do no damage at all
Level 3 - +6 armor, 14% chance that any attack will do no damage at all
Level 4 - +8 armor, 18% chance that any attack will do no damage at all

Fear of Giants
Over time, Gilginsha grows even larger becoming more intimidating to his adversaries. When they see him coming they tremble in fear unable to take any action besides stare with wide terrified eyes. This is an aura effect with a range of 800. When an enemy becomes “terrified” Gilginsha goes into a state of bloodlust for a period of time.
Level 1 – 3% chance per second that enemies will freeze in terror for 2 seconds before any action can be taken. Gilginsha’s MS increases by 10% and AS by 20% for 5 seconds.
Level 2 – 5% chance per second that enemies will freeze in terror for 2 seconds before any action can be taken. Gilginsha’s MS increases by 15% and AS by 35% for 5 seconds.
Level 3 – 7% chance per second that enemies will freeze in terror for 2 seconds before any action can be taken. Gilginsha’s MS increases by 20% and AS by 50% for 5 seconds.
(this is an aura effect. each second you are in the aura there is a % chance you will become terrified)

This hero is a combination of Centaur/Tide/and Ogre Magi. He will look similar to Ogre only with one head and purple. He is similar to centaur because of the stun; Tide because of the passive attack and skin; Ogre because of the strange percentages to activate skills. The ultimate for this hero is his most revolutionary trait. It is an aura and will look like a thin wave that radiates from the hero. When a hero is “terrified” he turns and faces Gilginsha with the little “!” over his head similar to the deafening blast effect. Gilginsha then goes into a state of bloodlust similar to the one that Ogre casts.

Good items:
Assault Cuirass
Radiance
BoT
Blink Dagger

This is my second try at building a new hero. The first one has been sitting waiting for 5 months. So, I am posting this to get your thoughts, if we fix it up a little maybe it will be selected. I need more help with the %s. Up or down?
