This was such a good read. Thanks Korok. I wonder if we are gonna see a 5xShadowblade afterall. Maybe not. Best of Luck/skill - and may your kills be aplenty, and strategies innovative.

One of the changes i enjoy the most is the stacking dust in your inventory.

Good luck at Dreamhack! And who do you think got the better Agh's upgrade Omni, Doom, or Necro?
Every night I pray for TL to give me my SAD Boys flair, and every morning I wake up disappointed.

Trying to get this done asap so I won't be including quotes but I'll just write your name + my response.
Also thank you to those who shared kind words, it means a lot and the entire team has read your messages.

@mizu -- quelling blade is still relatively the same. I don't think the buff did very much.

@mauldo -- TLO is the only TL SC2 player who I have had multiple conversations with about Dota, Starcraft, and other things. (I'm rooming with Taeja/Hotbid/Bumblebee). I don't think Ret or Snute have any interest in Dota 2 but I've said hi to them.

@Provocateur -- Dendi opts for force staff sheepstick, and I think this is probably the best build if you're not doing something like a mekansm. Aghs is nice but it seems like an item to get later on in the game unless you're against some mass heal strat.

@siz.fantasy -- anything?

@torenhire -- I look forward to it

@Lin of Koi -- maybe in a strat where you have a tiny or some other hero that could benefit from the base damage // don't need to use spells

@LesPhoques -- comparing us to HerO? undeserved but flattering

@Sadrian -- we're just switching things up for now, I did play mid kunkka in one of our games

@TTrickster -- ah yes, the obs change is pretty big but I didn't talk about it since it doesn't affect me as much as it does for my lovely support players

@Oukka -- see my response to Sadrian

@shostakovich -- I don't think morph is viable anymore middle since he's extremely vulnerable to ganks and he can easily be pushed out by heroes that spam spells (which are the majority of mids now since bottle crow is the hot thing to do nowadays) That being said, trilane morph seems to be the most reliable place for him

@add1ctus -- I think treant is a very gimmicky hero. I don't like the concept of being able to save someone's life from across the map with a spell that costs almost no mana.

@A Wet Shamwow -- I don't know what kind of buff he'd receive, but if I were to buff the hero I'd probably change the scaling on his passive so at earlier levels in the laning phase it's more effective. Dark Pact is already one of the best spells in the game.

Post #2 starts with responses from Page 4 onward. If I missed your question then I'm deeply sorry and if you tweet at me I'll respond. If someone else asked a similar question I might have skipped it but if not I did by accident. I'm ditching the others to write these responses but I'd like to get back to them

@vectorix108 -- I don't think the aghs buff to silencer will increase his midpick viability. VP has run silencer very effectively from a support position and I think that's where he belongs.

@Cyn1c -- Mag is still very good but his impact in team fights is decreasing with every nerf he gets. RP is still a great spell but I don't see him getting picked in a lineup that doesn't abuse his empower spell. He used to be a very universal pick that could work with any lineup and I'm glad that the change was made. Also, with the change to bottle crow it makes him slightly weaker and many mid heroes can shut him down completely.

@DaCruise -- That's what Bumblebee said. I blame him for causing the bad weather though with all his raging. Can you believe that he's muted in Dota 2 more than 2 weeks per month? lol

@Tuthur -- Disruptor is definitely stronger with the thunderstrike change but I don't think it makes him that much stronger.

@blah604 -- The best things about the heroes who got major changes are that they aren't in captains mode anymore :D Tobi isn't here, and I think the hot_bid interviews will be pretty memorable.

@slendermang -- I don't think she's in Captain's Mode

@Spacemanspiff -- I played Kunkka in the groupstage! That ultimate is way too strong :o

@Wedde -- It's been asked two times already Ctrl + F my response to Sadrian

@Spicy_Curry -- I don't think it's nearly as powerful as you think, but the change definitely makes pugna a more attractive pick for pushing and anti-caster lineups

@sperY -- Ctrl + F Sadrian

@nlnoff -- I'm not sure what mid heroes a venge could go up against. It seems very greedy and will probably be punished unless you know that they're sending their own weak hero middle.

@Pimpmuckl -- The post-patch meta is still in it's infancy, and no medusa in captain's mode.

Alright, that's gonna be all for now. I'll answer any further questions on twitter. Going on a date with bdiz completely homo

There is no difference between a knight and any other man aside from what he wears. @robinnymann
