Does that mean that after a buyback and until you would have respawned normally...

a) you get 0 gold from unreliable sources (creeps etc)
b) you get gold from unreliable sources, but you get it as reliable

These patchnotes are 100% fake, or at least a lot of the changes will not appear in the final version. Too many drastic changes and a lot of the changes do not seem "realistic".

It's gotta be a. It doesn't make any sense otherwise. It's mostly I think to prevent death->buyback->go farm.

You can't just say that things "don't make sense" without being specific. This just makes people think you haven't thought things through at all. It's like saying "the sky is falling" when you haven't seen the impact of the changes yet.

What doesn't make sense?

there's loads of big changes in there that you could think don't make sense, no need to be specific.


Not one person who said "doesn't make sense" has named even a single change they think doesn't make sense. It's a stupid thing to post if you're not going to actually create a discussion about it.


too many of them are pure ridiculous.

3mins fly courier limit, to nerf mid bottle crow and icefrog went full retard.
Pudge's dagger - why dont they just implement Techies if they wished for serious pub greifing.

Just too many.

I get it this is the first patch that they purposely tweak and change stuffs based on dota2 engine but the amount of ridicules in the patch are just mindblowing. Not that I hate or like it but this is a whole new game from now on.


nerfing bottle crow is going "full retard?" What?

Who cares if pudge can get dagger? They made it impossible to trap people with it so it doesn't matter.

Man there is a lot to digest with these changes. Pull camps, camps in general, 25% increase in passive gold rate, reduced xp gain from jungling; all that seems gamechanging.

I would like to see some explanation behind some of the changes though. Hopefully somethings gets published soon.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

The Roshan change seems good to me. You need to actively scout the pit instead of writing down a timer and then it ends in a boring 3 minute stalemate around the rosh pit.

I like some of the changes, but the others are just way TOO big to be changed now.

Notes were posted on Valve dev forum. Unless April Fool's came early from Valve, this is legit.

Icefrog Weibo confirmed.

Contrary to popular belief, nerfing bottle crow will make mid lane a lot less interesting.

Something had to be done about buy-backs, good call imo

* Day/Night length decreased from 6 to 4 minutes

I'm wondering how this will impact the meta-game. Possibly a bigger change than anyone things

Show nested quote +

* Roshan will respawn at a random time between 8 and 11 minutes after death

Interesting choice as well

- Divided We Stand leveling rebalanced from 6/11/16 to 4/11/18

More N0tail rat doto ?

Animal Courier
- Movement speed increased from 300 to 350
- HP increased from 45 to 75

Well, during TI3 we saw far more than enough courier kills

Ward last 7 minutes while the first night at 4, then it's day time only 1 minute after ward expires.

So many of these changes make no sense. No more pooling regen? Huge nerfs to pulling? No more bottle jungling? No heroes on ancients early? Gem costs 900? What does "Evasion stacks diminishingly" even mean?

The Broodmother and Rubick changes are some serious troll changes too.

Okay, but that doesn't mean it's retarded. Maybe they're trying to de-emphasize mid because it has a drastically greater effect on the game than the other lanes in most cases? Maybe they don't want winning mid to rely on a tedious repetitive task like bottle crowing?
