New Hero Screenshots

Got a patch the other day to not only fix the scout bug, yays, but gave us 2 new heroes.

Forsaken Archer: Hellbourne Ranged Agility

Engineer: Legion Ranged Agility

From playing with these two they seemed rather weak. Then again, I play noob games. I never got to play the archer because she was constantly getting click camped, but fighting against her was somewhat interesting. Her disable is pretty neat, but timing is an issue. I was able to avoid it just by noticing the animation. Other than that, playing as Nighthound, she was very squishy. I killed her often and didn’t find myself wondering if I could take her 1v1 like I do with other heroes. Her minions were barely annoying during laning. Ya they were there, but they didn’t hurt and killing them took barely any effort.

Engineer was a very different story. No one played him. Not even me. The one time I did fight against him he wasn’t very memorable. He wasn’t extremely squishy and he.. well to be quite honest the other thing I remember from him is the electric fence he brought up which missed.. everyone. It distracted me, it was pretty, but nothing happened and I was smart enough not to go into it… so.. ya.

It’s a rarity not to have a brand new hero click camped which leaves me to believe Engineer may not be as great as S2 intended.
