The new hero spotlight was released exclusively at xfire.com.
Dig: AoE stun that deals damage on impact. Travels up to 1000 distance, ignoring terrain. Can be activated again to surface early.
Quicksand: Creates a 250 radius pit that reduces attack speed and movement speed of enemies, crippling them further if they attack or move while inside.
Earth's Grasp: A single-target, damage-over-time spell that causes small explosions under the target which have a 0.5 second delay and deal damage in a small AoE.
Fossilization: Marks an area to stun and deal magic damage to all enemies within it after a 3 second delay.

Interestingly, Geomancer is an Int ganker and initiator with powerful disables and high AoE damage. Compared to similar-style heroes like Magmus and Behemoth, Geomancer doesn't require proximity to land his ult, but the 3 seconds of delay will require good timing and team coordination. He has the added bonus of being an Int hero, meaning that he will benefit from a higher mana pool and regeneration rate.
Geomancer, along with what looks to be a Nyan Cat courier, surfaces on Newerth this Friday!
