Gameplay/ Conclusion

The concept of Adun is to help your team using a high- mana cost but powerful protoss army. The concept of having lots of vision and weaving in a little bit of RTS was appealing to me. Although his abilities may seem OP,  a well placed Flamestrike or Blizzard can eliminate most of Adun's army with ease. Hopefully not being able to gather XP will counteract how strong his vision can help the team. I am most open to suggestions.

I can see adun becoming a problem for either team, depending on the skill level of the players and of adun himself. Warping in all your minions in the middle of a team fight could either have them all killed, or have the enemy team's backline killed without putting anyone in danger.

Also, the lane pushing power of this little guy is... woah....

3 zealots that last 5 seconds every 5 seconds?

I don't think you realise how GOOD that is. It basically allows people to push lane FOREVER. Murky, or the abathur monstrosity, or gazlowe... Even zagara, will make the game sooooo one sided if the enemy team doesn't waste a ton of time dealing with them.

With the right comp, this hero could be game breaking.

The sentry heroic needs a rework. It seems just much weaker than time warp, considering that time warp is a global earthquake. Maybe the heroic could be replaced with warp in, which warps in a large number of units and lets you control them, even without the micro talent.
