[BoxinShrimp]

[quote]... When Earthshaker Echoslam's 5 heroes[/quote]

It better have "SLAMMIN!" in the name before the items actual name.

[Kube]

OH MAH GAWD

[Skunky]

Guess who did the voice of Abaddon.

Woah. Nolan North's bastard son anyone?

DEFENCE GRID ANNOUNCER
RASPBERRIES INBOUND.

[nmagain]

[Shibbey]

What are the new Seer and DK icons like? Curious.

[nmagain]

[Sharc]

One of DS's new icons

[Valiantttt]

Intresting, BTW how to counter him since he is going to be insta-pick every game from now on for a while.

It's wall of replicate.

[Nestophales]

Ion and Wall are pretty sick
Surge and Vacuum look lazy as hell

[Amaurus]

DK's icons look very nice. Darkseer's vacuum is a bit lackluster though and surge needs a bit more "HOLY SHIT YOU'RE GOING FAST!"

[Kube]

abaddon' sword clips through his horse.

[VulpesGrey]

i do not like any of these new darkseer icons
dk ones are awesome though

[Unisath]

I love DK's new icons.

[QUOTE=LtKyle2;41400581]abaddon' sword clips through his horse.[/QUOTE]
Actually, it starts to materialize with a fancy particle effect once you start attacking, then when you finish attacking the sword dematerializes with another fancy particle effect. I don't think it's actually supposed to show when he is just moving or anything.

That's what i thought first but i saw the sword clipping through the horse

think the sword doesnt dissappear like you said it should

[sir whoopsalot]

[QUOTE=nmagain;41400263]i take it thats surge? looks pretty sick[/QUOTE]

What the hell makes you think that's surge?

[pvt.meh]

maybe because it could be seen as someone's face blurring.

DS's ult icon looks out of place.

Crab mount for smeevil. Unlocked by getting enough cards to complete a team.

[pvt.meh]
