D2 Assassin (name tbd)

Magebane

I don't know what numbers would be balanced so I'm leaving those with just light medium or high. I see this character as an assassin with high mobility who could use run in, use shock web, auto attack x times depending on desired effect, use dragon flight, and then run with cloak of shadows. With first ult could spread shock webs and dragon flight effects for high area damage. With second ult would put shock web down before engaging and then throw target into shock web and then gap close with dragon flight.

QWE set up could be in any order. Icons would be colored or preferably changed if this were in game.

Combat Trait

1
Phoenix Strike
When an ability (or the attack with bonus damage from cloak of shadows) hits a hero next 3 attacks deal light bonus damage and grant a charge. Max 3 charges.

Primary Abilities

1
Shock Web
Puts down a shock web which slows and damages enemies in it.
2
Dragon Flight
Dash a short distance to and attack a target for light damage, stun them for x seconds (low), and spend all charges. Gains bonus effects based on charges. Then gain bonus speed. Would have fairly short range range (similar range to raynor's penetrating round maybe a bit less).
1 Charge: Meteor,  high small area damage centered on target, knocks back nearby enemies.
2 Charges: Chain Lightning, deals light damage to the target and then arcs to nearby targets, then arcs back to original target dealing bonus damage based on how many secondary targets it hit.
3 Charges: Chaos Ice Bolts, sends bolts outwards in a circle dealing moderate damage and slowing.
3
Cloak of Shadows
Cloaks for 3 seconds and gains movement speed, unit walking, and deals additional moderate damage on next attack.

Heroic Abilities

1
Shadow Master
Cloaks and gains invulnerability for 1 seconds and then spawns a duplicate which seeks out and attacks enemies. Copies your abilities when you use them. Use R to re target shadow master.
2
3 Lotus Strike
Hits a target 3 times for moderate damage each time (would activate phoenix strike and proc it on all 3 attacks) and then flips them behind you. If they land in a shock web they are immobilized for x seconds.

Talents

I haven't decided on tiers for them. Aside from the heroics they could be arranged in any manner that seems appropriate. These are just a few ideas, more could be added.
spider's web (q): Shock web has higher slow and roots enemies if they stand there for too long.
tremor sense (q): Much longer range, puts a slight ping if someone steps in it (wouldn't show what triggered it)
Tiger Strike (w): Replaces side effects with an area version of the damage/stun which would be weaker. Main effect would be stronger and would gain power based on charges.
Claws of ice (w): Always triggers chaos ice bolt regardless of charges
Claws of fire (w): Always triggers meteor regardless of charges
Claws of lightning (w): Always triggers chain lightning regardless of charges.
These 3 would all be in the same tier
Cobra Strike (w): Gains life when triggered based on charges.
Cloak and Dagger (e): Gains bonus damage on attack first and when attacks or after 1 seconds cloaks
Blinding Cloud (e): Releases a cloud when cloaks that lowers enemy vision range.
Smoke and Fire (e): When cloaks drops a wake of fire sentry that fires off 3 waves of fire for light damage each.
Back up Plan (r1): If you die while the shadow master is alive you switch places with it and gain % of max health equal to the % of max health that the shadow master had. The shadow master also gains additional damage.
Pursuit (r2): When you flip the target you dash to the targets landing location and deal x% increased damage to the target.
