A very interesting concept you have, as you made a character which is his own spells are giving him offensive capabilities (and without them, just a meat cannon)

Ezmiran is quite needed in micromanagment, as you have to get attention of moving him and using his own abilities to the limit. Which is something like if you're played Mirage.

I like this Hero Spell. The allowance to improve your abilities, making them stronger is good. It's also allows you to reduce Fiery Teleport Cooldown to 3 seconds if maxed, which
now becomes a very nice crowd control move.
Somewhat Small Sun's Slow & No Attack ability are becoming useless, since Stun ability does this both, Perhaps you could change it for something better.
Fireball Strike is quite powerful if used in conjuction Empowering Fire. Within 20 seconds, you can unleash 4050 damage (Total Dmg on Center) on the selected target, which could kill
any unit, even golems. It is quite OP, so i would suggest increased cooldown a bit.

It seems like weaker Scourching Earth of the RoF. I could set traps with this. 200 dmg total on 10.5 seconds duration (Which i think works also when you're not standing on it) No cooldown, and it combines with Fiery Teleport. It gives a real feeling you are setting the world on fire.

Wow! That is a very unique hero.

Interesting enough, I've made a cluster of mage heroes recently, and a fire mage with his hero spell being a different kind of buff is next on my list. I may change my plans.

First thought: Can I not use reinforcements, or Thunder when using this hero? If so, he needs to make up for that huge loss. If yes, how do I use them?

Fireball strike could do with a longer cooldown or lower damage, the former if its empowered buff remains the same. Silver Bullet deals 320 damage every 12 seconds. 400 damage every 5 seconds with a possible 320 AoE is rather ridiculous, I'm afraid. Something the other side of 15 seconds would be more appropriate. The buff could instead increase damage, with overkill damage being AoE, instead of a flat AoE.

Small Sun deals 400 AoE damage, slows, and is back 2 seconds after it is gone. Again, less damage, higher cooldown, or both would balance the cool concept.

The teleport deals damage... every 8 seconds? I assume he can teleport anytime, but only deals damage every 8 seconds. Personally 4-5 seconds would be better.

And Scorched Earth lasts until the enemy is killed? Enemies increase its duration? It base duration is too high to be increased further relative to its cooldown, less damage or duration, or removing the increase is the way here.

Again, this is an amazing concept, pretty well realised, however there are some balancing issues to address to reach its full potential.

There aren't reinforcements or rain of fire when using this hero, his powerful abilities are meant to make up for it.


Scorched Path doesn't last forever. It last while enemies are on it. The longer an enemy is on it, the longer the duration.

I changed some things for better balance.
