[color=#ffff00][/color]Hi everybody. This is my practice for the upcoming contest, which I hope to win :)
Seeing the 'item' as a theme, it might be good to create an idea and have you cool guys comment it. Feedbacks are VERY much appreciated.

This item works as like a power treads, with more expensive components and and sloghtly different effects. Instead of move and attack speed, this item adds armor and a passive bonus to primary attributes.


ADAPTIVE ARMOR (1550)
Components: Chainmail + Ogre club/ Blade of alacrity/ Staff of wizardry (based on primary attribute)

Active: Adapt
Adds a bonus 7 ponts to a chosen attribute. (Order: STR, AGI, INT)
Stats:
+ 6 armor
+ 10 primary attribute
+ 5 chosen attribute

An armor that would always fit any bearer.


I am not well known in this community, and winning the contest would finally make me known. I really want to get close to you guys, knowing this is the best dota community out there.

This is a cool item! It adds armour, boost to primary attribute and attribute of choice. So could you have say... 14 plus on your primary attribute if you wanted?

And, you know, you don't have to win a contest to become known. :)

Thank you very much for the feedback! I spend quite a while balancing it, and it pays off well.
Sure, you dont have to win to be known, but as the movies depict, proving yourself is really potent. Doing 1 AWESOME thing makes you very popular, but doing 100 good things did little to nothing. Did you watch monsters university?

I think you've balanced it a little too much, because it's kind of underpowered. It doesn't give the wearer the stats from its components (+10 for each attribute), so it's pretty much weaker than if you were to buy the Ogre Club, Blade of Alacrity and Staff of Wizardry separately or combine them into an Aghanim's Scepter.
