Mars has finally been released!
THE AGE OF THE OLD GODS WILL SOON MEET ITS END
Mars, first son of heaven, spent a long existence waging endless war, and saw countless more crusades waged in his old name. Wars of conquest and of vengeance. Just and unjust... Always cruel. Like his father, Mars indulged his basest impulses—inclinations much more monstrous than those of Zeus. But the day arrived when war for its own sake was no longer enough to satisfy his desires. As the Fates would have it, his solution came easily: he must wage war for a larger purpose, and inspire more than mere savagery and sorrow at the sight of his crest. Now, the god of war aims to lay claim to his birthright—to burn down the pantheon of the old age and build a new empire atop the ashes of his kin.
SPEAR OF MARS
Mars throws his legendary Spear, damaging each enemy unit it strikes. The first enemy hero it hits is skewered and pushed back. If a skewered hero hits a tree, building, or cliff, they will be impaled to it and stunned.
GOD'S REBUKE
Mars smashes enemies in front of him with his shield, knocking them back and damaging them with a critical hit based on his attack. Imbued with True Strike, the assault adds bonus base damage when hitting heroes.
BULWARK
Mars wields his massive shield to block a portion of each physical attack when struck from the front or sides. ed note: (bristlefront?)
ARENA OF BLOOD
Mars summons an arena lined with the undead warriors of the Ash Legion, who block enemy attacks and movement. Enemy heroes near the inside edge of the arena will be attacked by spears, dealing damage and knocking them back.
The arrival of Mars also comes with a Drow remodel as well.

Yet to play him FeelsBadMan

Bristleback + Bulwark ability draft, EZ

As always pretty ugly model.
More importantly - the Drow remodel is really pretty ugly.
I don't mind the sets, everyone wears community made stuff anyway - but dat face.
|
Yeah the face is pretty ugly.
Its like she went through a botox procedure and got cataract. Its not very nice to look at.
Mars is pretty fun though. Think you just build him like you would an LC, pick off people with BM and blink and get some damage items too.

why is every new hero so huge? why does his lore include zeus and why the fuck does he talk about kebabs?
and wow another hero that is gonna get nerfed for a few patches straight and has a really attack animation.
|
His ult seems horribly op at lvl 25 with the talent. Save for some spells that reach inside, you can basicly make any fight a 5v[1-4] without killing anything first.

you know mars is jupiter's (zeus) son, right?
his bat is 1.8 tho
new heroes have been overtuned since 10 years ago, are you new to dota or something?

Instead of working on remodels they should focused on fixing the shitty animation on some old heroes

if my memory serves me right there is a version in which he is not. regardless tho why not stick to jupiter+mars or zeus+ares?
i guess so :^)

I actually really like Mars' design. Has that same sort of campy deity feel that Zeus does.
Gameplay wise I've only played one that didn't know what they were doing and crushed them. Seems hella annoying though. Not looking forward to playing against someone good at the hero.

Cool. A tanky carry? Ult is some form of CC I suppose. Not really sure how to build him. Maybe radiance? Hero feels weak without carry items. I don't see him useful with utility.

You think they'll allow him into captain's draft in 4-6 months?"

wtf maelstorm procs works with the shield bash thing
|
I know this is more of a Smite thing, but I would enjoy some more mythological heroes from all corners of the world. Egyptian gods, Norse gods, Hellenistic we got covered I guess? More from China/Japan/India etc.

On a scale from one to release monkey king how strong is this guy? His W scaling with damage seems pretty broken
