Gamer Limit Review: Mega Man 10
The Secret Armory of General Knoxx review
RE5's Desperate Escape DLC review
Indie Spotlight: Darkfate
This week’s beta patch for Heroes of Newerth introduced the latest character to the ever growing hero roster. Sand Wraith is pretty much a straight up port of DOTAs Spectre… except the gender, and obviously the model have been changed.
Check out the skill set after the break!
Desert’s Curse
The Sand Wraith calls upon the endless Desert’s Curse, covering the ground ahead of him with sand. Enemies caught in the sand are slowed while the Sand Wraith can move faster and is unhindered by cliffs or trees.
Deserted
The Sand Wraith can prey on those who are alone, granting him increased damage when an enemy is not near any allies.
Dissipation
Using sand itself as a shield, the Sand Wraith reduced incoming damage and reflects it back to any enemies around him.
Mirage
The Sand Wraith tricks the mind, causing an illusion of himself to appear next to all enemy heroes and attack them. At any moment he wished, the Sand Wraith can take the place of one of those illusions.
So far I’ve played two matches with him: first game I got pummeled, second game I led the team to victory with 17:2 kill:deaths… he’s certainly great for ganking, but as far as team presence goes, I suspect he’ll end up similar to a scout class (pop in, steal kill, run away).

Seems pretty formidable. I might as well enjoy HoN while it’s in beta, and free!
I think it’s time for the Gamer Limit crew to get together again for some HoN action!
Spectre was pretty hardcore in DotA, it’s no surprise that Sand Wraith is really good.
it looks cool BUT I DON”T HAVE A BETA KEYY!!! I NEED ON PLS SEND IT ON ( amatar07@yahoo.com)
This hero sucks period.
Seriously, I love him.
He’s the ultimate in gankage.
Amatar07, i sent you an email.
Spectre is more of a hard carry imo, but good lord, he’s outrageously good. He was def one of the best in DotA – very hard to kill if farmed, and he has an easy way to get hero kills that doubles in function because it shows you where all your opponents are. Sand Wraith – a direct port – is almost certainly going to wind up being one of the best heroes in HoN.
I would play Spectre a ton in DotA…I need a beta key to use him in HoN though
anyone happen to have one? jazzbassmatt@gmail.com
