Valve showing us what is to come

Posted by Marko "marCoon" Karacic 3 months ago
Valve has released the concept art of three heroes that are not yet in the beta, but are surely on their way

Even though nothing has been said as to when the three heroes are coming, they have published the concept art of heroes many of us have been expecting for months already. Without further introduction, I present to you Lycan, Sylla and Shadow Demon







Hopefully these heroes will be implemented into the beta soon and we may see a rather interesting shift in the current meta game.

Additionally, Valve have stated that they will be releasing a more detailed description of the process that goes into developing these hero designs in the near future.

I do not see it in the starcraft section to be honest :)

Edit: If you follwed the link through twitter than you might be right, because that somehow always redirects to the StarCraft section :D

wtf with lycan? he's like a old man or big man with no brain the usual goons in moveis, lycan human form should be based at least on wolverine...

Badass concepts! Valve is heading in the right direction.

#8 That's one of the wolves, not his lycan form.

#13 Because that makes sense?
Because Wolverine turns into a lycan, rite guise??

Wow! highly anticipate this.
Although according to Dota2wiki, Bane is next in line followed by gyro,lanaya and mortred.

Are Lycan and Sylla meant to be related? What's with the claws?

Love Shadow demon's model.

Nonetheless, very exciting!!!!

Not sure if the Shadow Demon's model is based on the Kobold or the Archimonde model.

looks like a mix of both :\
