Shannox

Meele Warrior

Combat Trait

1
Separation Anxiety
Shannox becomes agitated when one of his pets is dead. He has two pets Rageface and Riplimb.
Ripllimb dead gives Shannox 10% increased move speed.
Rageface dead gives Shannox 10% increased attack speed.
If both effects are active in same time Shannox gets enraged increasing his damage also by 10%.

His pets remain passive while not used by his abilities, therefore they attack for 25% of Shannox's damage while Shannox is in meele range of opponent.

[Early stage] Concept

This is my first early stage of concept, I still didn't post much about him. I have some mixing ideas that could be really good on him. I will post updates when I have time.
So until then I hope I don't get flamed and every helpful comment or idea is appreciated.

Thank you very much for your suggestions, I will input some of your suggestions in him, and change some of his abilities. =)

This seems promising. I'd suggest to remove the stun from the "Go For The Throat!" and reduce the duration to 3 seconds.
About the "Magma Rapture" it reminds me too much of Butcher's "Furnace Blast".
The trap seems too lackluster, it isn't effective, you need the target to step on it, the only scenario I see it working was if it you were a Specliast. (Plus it looks almost the same as Abathur's mine)

Thinking about playstyle.
What does the pets help him about?
- Giving speed to engage?
The damage boost isn't that great for a warrior, unless you want to make him a Sonya-like warrior, then it is cool.
The Q seems like a nice ability, I'd just suggest a small CC on it. A slow, maybe even a root.
The W seems bad. You just send your pet to the target, he just attacks, and you wouldn't want to be retargeting your pet every now and then.

Imo, I'd give him a nice slow or a snare on the Q.
Change his W to grant him some sustain, maybe make the pet to attack and heal you.
Completely change his E, give him some engage, a speed buff, a leap.

For the Heroics:

His first one would make the pet jump at the target and snare him for a good duration (The stun is too good, it can completely obliterate a Triple Tap, Strafe and Ravenous Spirit)
The magma rapture could work as a bigger Kael's Flamestrike (not as big as the one with the Combat Trait) that stunned based on the distance between you and the enemy.

The combat trait I'd change to a better one, maybe share the damage he recieves with his pets and also heal him based on their attacks
