Low standard,very basic assassin kit, for dozen mobas. HOTS needs recognizable unique heroes and mechanics.

I feel like Potent Venom is just an upgraded version of Eviscerate and does not stand out as a Heroic Ability. Also Mortal Strike makes me think of Varian's Talent that reduces healing received rather than an Execute Ability - maybe change the name (it is a fine Heroic)? A question I have is can player stack Combo Points on multiple targets or just on a single target? I would think the latter and have the former as a Talent. Finally, no Stealth or Movement Ability?

Ok, so combo points are not built on a target but rather on youself (I.E. You strike target A, gain a combo point, strike target B, gain another combo point), and they would be shown over your Hitpoint Bar

The more I think about it, the more Potent Venom seems boring. I'll find something new.

Sure I'll change the name (i made this before Varian Patch that's why Mortal Strike lol)

I specifically made her with no Stealth because of how much damage she can output burst wise. For instance, at level 1, she can deal almost 800 damage in 2 seconds--which is absolute insanity (Dagger, two quick-strikes, a BA, and Eviscerate.) She had origianally had a sprint instead of a mount, but it seemed really strong. Maybe the second heroic could be a Vanish or something.

Thank you so much for feedback! :)

Alrighty a couple of changes--most important is the second heroic which is sort of like a chasing heroic, but could be used as an escape. I buffed the BA speed and Eviscerate mostly because Potent Venom would have been a large piece of your damage.

Pretty nice Valeera concept here! I like the Assassination rogue feeling you gave to it. Her kit is nice with nice engage, damage dealer that keeps your damage in check, decent chasing potential, and of course two differend Heroics: one for solo-killing, and the other for when your team has a wombo-combo.

I might soon release Shaku, which is also a rogue, but instead belongs to Subtlety category. I hope he won't disappoint you like your Vallera didn't disappoint me. Have a ncie day! :D
