Vikings death sound getting to the team's moral
I recently started playing the Vikings (lvl 9 already) and a few Vikings dying sometimes makes the team get all angry. In my opinion it's because of the death sound whenever a Vikings dies, it seems to get the moral of the team down, maybe because it's the same as any hero dying. I'm not saying that Vikings dying is no big deal at all, but maybe this frequent "death sound" if you're playing against stealthy heroes or very bursty ones affects the team maybe a little bit more sometimes. It would be interesting if blizzard added a specific sound for Vikings death and maybe even maybe murky.

we have a fix for this incoming!!
just recently we updated Leoric's death sound, (and I think Murky's...and maybe Misha's...i'll check with our sound peoples), and we definitely have plans to change the Vikings's (is it s's or just s'...) death sounds so they are more indicative that it's "just a viking" and not a full fledged hero.
Will Fix =)
