Ok so if you've played hon, then you should remember the hero Deadwood. Back in the days of Hon and before Dota 2 was released, I used to play this hero often as he is an amazing hero to have on a team as well as being crazy fun to play. Basically he was the evil version of the treant protector and for that reason he has more destructive skills compared to his counterpart.

To sumarise his skills, Deadwood has a mixture of initiation, ganking, chasing, escaping and stuns/disabling skills.

The first skill is to summon roots in an AOE which traps and disables enemy units caught in it. Units trapped also take a certain amount of damage over time of the hold.

The second skill is to uproot a tree and use it as a temporary weapon for 5 hits. The uprooted tree can be also thrown to apply a slow onto a single target.

The third skill allows the hero to cut through trees, and have an increased movement speed.

The ultimate skill is a close range nuke attack. Deadwood punches a target which deals massive damage as well as a stun if the target survives.

So if Dota can release a similar hero it would be pretty awesome. There wouldn't be too many issues with copyright as HON has replicated a fair bunch of heroes from dota so it's only reasonable that Dota gets some sort of copying rights.

Best thing I could see happening concerning this is Treant Protector having Deadwood-esque cosmetics added to the game. Deadwood was pretty cool though for obvious, Deadwood Punch related reasons.

Since all HoN heroes were taken from DotA, you'll always find here a match for each of them.

I dunno, he seems a bit strong...but I guess he's a nuker, with his massive damage ult.
