Hi Guys,
I have been working to recreate on of the coolest looking Death FX from Heroes of the Storm. The guys in blizzard have done a great job in creating fantastic VFX for that game. I just tried to replicate one of those. Would love to have your feedback on my work. thanks
There are 8 components applied here in this recreated effect. Random debri image is selected using UV within the same texture

1- The center is quite dense and bright. This might be fine in game, it just sticks out when replayed repeatedly.
2- I think the cylinder that shoots up dies very quickly and could also start thinner and then expand out over the particles life. It could also fade out as it grows.
