Barracks & Ancient skins

[Hvid Quinoa]

Do you think we'll ever get custom skins for buildings, such as ones we have for towers? Would be kinda cool and totally feasable

[ixthid the desolate]

that is a super cool idea
not sure if they plan on implementing it, but maybe
we've got a skin for almost everything now

[summersky09]

that would be in the next TI BP, I think?

Maybe? I don't really see any reason not to except that you don't see Barracks in the same way you see Towers, in-game. You're continuously fighting to defend or push towers all game long, but you really only get to barracks once.

It's kinda interesting, I think, but once you get past the novelty it's sorta underwhelming.

maybe they will look like a some creeps staying there like working to make a sword or training some creeps x)

dota doesnt really add a lot of living things that arent relevant but that is a cool idea

should be we have effigy to replace the fillers, and towers every bp, we should have more maps.... atm i have lots of fun using random weather + random map , it makes the game feel less boring and some combos do great results like aurora+winter from doto+

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you meant, but replacing one of the towers on your side of the map with an effigy of a hero on your team does seem like a really cool idea.

Yeah sounds cool! As you can also see some grievils jumping around/on Roshan with that skin equipped :)
Or just a totally different type building design, as we have totally different towers (giants, hands, dragons, crabs, and there used to be a period of time when towers were some spike-like structures and those skins were only seasonal or something)

I just really wish they put a working creeps or training and if you leave near destroying it someone in the creep will tried to fix it (regenerating) ha ha

Valve actually promised custom Barracks Skins waaaaaaaay back in TI5. It was one of the stretch goals, but then was conveniently removed from the stretch goal page without notice, and it seems like pretty much everybody forgot about it.
