Deathwing

Description
The Worldbreaker. The Destroyer. Aspect of Death. Xaxas. Based on his Heroes of the Storm kit. Deathwing joins the fray!

NSPECIAL = Cataclysm. Deathwing charges and flies in a line to unleash his attack. Its meter based,
FSPECIAL = Onslaught : Deathwing jumps forward to bite the opponent. Big hitpause.
DSPECIAL = Incinerate : After a few seconds, Deathwing flaps his wing to burst lava around him.
UPSPECIAL = Dragonflight : Deathwing hurls a short distance. This move is based of Charizard up special.

Deathwing's gimmick is his molten lava meter to unleash the Cataclysm and his 4 metal plates that are lost as his percentage rise.
He is a slow powerhouse character with a mediocre recovery and soft armor.

I tried to keep it as close as to his kit in the MOBA (HotS)

Compatibilty list:
- Trummel Codecs
- Otto's wobbly head
- Feri costume
- Miiverse's post
- Dracula Dialogue stage
- Daroach boss stage
- Kirby abilities
- Runes (not tested yet)
- TCO Art
- Hikaru's title
- Mt. Dedede arena name
- Soul Conflict stage text
- Toon Link Photo
- Pokemon Stadium
- Last Resort Stage

Credits:
- Blizzard (♥♥♥♥ your company but I got to give credit because I love Warcraft) for creating and designing the character.
- World of Warcraft for the sounds and victory theme (Dragon Soul raid theme)
- RoA's extended workshop discord for the help with some codes.
- Special thanks to Lukaru/Fakeacidtoe for helping me with the metal plates mechanic.

Hope you like it. As always, I would love feedback on this.

Ok,I gave him bigger hitboxes. Should be ok for now imo, Fspecial was way to small.

Oh! Never thought of that. Thanks, gonna check which moves need a lil bit of tweaking.

It's more that his hitboxes just needs to be larger. Like, waaay larger. Further forward and also further back. More moves needs to hit behind him.

I hear ya. More buffs to his frame data then.

Visual wise this character is amazing. I can't believe someone went and sprited a full moveset for someone so large as Deathwing, and it's true to character too.

Unfortunately his gameplay is pretty lacklustre. His range is way way way too small compared to his size and its incredibly hard to cover even your immediate area as a result. He's like Ridley except with none of the good bits.
