IDEA DESCRIPTION

Explained by the author.

It would be great if fire skills had a chance to set a tree on fire. I say a chance because for example Ember Spirit with his shield would set fire to many trees in its duration and it would not be balanced, so a chance. This already happens with the Timbersaw and his Shard. But I would expand it to all fire abilities and change the mechanics of it a bit. Tree (Passive Ability): A fire ability has a 5% chance to set this tree on fire. The fire consumes the tree in 7 seconds, and at the end the trunk falls and deals 25 damage in 300 AOE. Also leaves a cloud of smoke of 300 AOE that slows ALL units 10%. Just an idea that I think would bring another layer to Dota. Please Gaben change the map already!

I meant this change just to be feel the map more "alive". I edited the values, its just an insignificant amount of damage. Fire heroes will no be favoured.

This is a spectacular idea, so many directions this can go. I love anything that makes the map more alive and this is one of those things! Hope to see more from you

And damage also should be even lower. This should be a reactive enviroment but not make fire heroes op in lane

And maybe the chances should be lower, ember will still break a lot of trees with his shield

This would be awesome and also expand it to some other elements. Like lightining in the river. Imagine Zeus casting a Lightning Bolt into the ground at one end of the river and killing a courrier at the other end xD
