Id make it over on the create hero but its too time consuming. Anyway heres the hero

Otto the Roadster:
no storyline, yet, but essentially he's a car (steam engine maybe). Otto can shift gears to go faster, rev up his engine to scare other heros, and lay down oil slicks to give others a slip.

Skills:
Shift Gears : mana cost: 50 for every level; cooldown: 5 seconds
Shift Gears (lvl 1)- Otto's movement speed increases by 10% for 50 seconds. Stacks 3 times.
Shift Gears (lvl 2)- Otto's movement speed increases by 10% for 50 seconds. Stacks 4 times.
Shift Gears (lvl 3)- Otto's movement speed increases by 10% for 50 seconds. Stacks 5 times.
Shift Gears (lvl 4)- Otto's movement speed increases by 10% for 50 seconds. Stacks 6 times

Just seems cool to me, like shifting gears in a car for more speed .

Skill 2: Engine Roar
mana: 60/75/90/105, cooldown 30 seconds
Engine Roar (level 1): Otto revs up his engine which frightens nearby enemy heros, silencing them for 1 second within an area of 300 of Otto.
Engine Roar (level 2) Otto revs up his engine which frightens nearby enemy heros, silencing them for 2 second within an area of 300 of Otto.
Engine Roar (level 3): Otto revs up his engine which frightens nearby enemy heros, silencing them for 3 second within an area of 300 of Otto.
Engine Roar (level 4) Otto revs up his engine which frightens nearby enemy heros, silencing them for 4 second within an area of 300 of Otto.

Kind of like Veno's Ulti, except it silences.

Skill 3 Oil Slick
mana: 100, cooldown: 90 seconds
Oil Slick (level 1): Otto lays down an oil slick which slows enemy movement by 25% for 3 seconds. Max 1 Oil Slicks.
Oil Slick (level 2): Otto lays down an oil slick which slows enemy movement by 25% for 3 seconds. Max 3 Oil Slicks.
Oil Slick (level 3): Otto lays down an oil slick which slows enemy movement by 25% for 3 seconds. Max 5 Oil Slicks.
Oil Slick (level 4): Otto lays down an oil slick which slows enemy movement by 25% for 3 seconds. Max 7 Oil Slicks.

This skill is similar to web except that it slows and would be about a 1/3 the size of web?

Ultimate: The Chase
mana: 180, cooldown: 100 seconds
The Chase (level 1): Otto's movement speed gradually increases by 4% per second as he plows through anything in his path momentarily stunning any creeps while stunning heros for 2 seconds for 250 damage.
The Chase (level 2): Otto's movement speed gradually increases by 8% per second as he plows through anything in his path momentarily stunning any creeps while stunning heros for 2 seconds for 400 damage.
The Chase (level 3): Otto's movement speed gradually increases by 12% per second as he plows through anything in his path momentarily stunning any creeps while stunning heros for 2 seconds for 550 damage.

This skill is a lot like an upgraded spiritbreaker charge.

I guess Otto would be a strength hero? I dont know. These skills are just ideas and the specifics of each like seconds, damage, area of effect etc. arent definite.
Maybe could use the steam engine as the unit?
first vehicle hero?

Otto has very good escape mechanisms like shifting gears and engine roar.

He can also be a very good chaser, with shift gears, oil slick, and the chase.

Mostly made him for the shifting gears, it just seems like an imba ability.

Sorry theres no pictures, Im a noob at making these hero ideas.

What do you think of Otto the Roadster?

Every time he gets a kill, the game will shout out "ROAD KILL!"

i thought of something that could be be cool , or maybe not, give shifting gears a minor silence, like 2 seconds, since after all he's peddlin to the metal and lettin his engine scream by goin faster. Then instead of engine roar, have "driveby": like a low range minigun auto attack thats similar to leshrac's diabolic edict. Abilties could really come together that way:
for example, its late in the game and youve wisely placed some oil slicks around key choke points to slow and for vision. Other team decides to rosh anyway with your oil slick right behind em. You come into gank with your team, and the enemy heros are slowed as they run through through the oil slick, you activate "driveby", and then shift gears, making it a slow + silence + movement speed, + an aoe damage around Otto. Could even stun a couple heros as you run em over... pretty cool synergy? :p
what do you think?
Id like to see this hero in dota, so if any of you know how to add heros to the selection put in a good word for otto
ps: what is mechanical? advantages? disadvantages?
