I've seen so many patches and everyone always gets a little bit upset at certain changes but the patches are always good, they make logical buffs that affect certain problems in the game and it always improves the game. Another nice patch from icefrog, I love all the changes in this one (Especially Lich, he's my favorite hero). I dunno, the last balance patch was pretty well received. I like most of the changes, but I don't really understand why they had to reduce jungle exp. Being able to leech exp from jungle camps without last hitting the creep also seems stupid to me. A lot of the gameplay changes were clearly meant to buff offlaners, which I'm fine with considering how annoying offlane can be and how small the pool of competitive offlaners is. I love the buyback change too | ||

What, you'd rather have 2 uncoordinated, failing sidelanes every game? Idk about everyone else but I'd take a pub jungler over that mess any day. | ||

I mean, lasso is harder to hit, but getting that bit closer shouldn't make bat useless, nor should the change to his base damage, considering his mostly ran in the jungle now-a-days. even if you run bat in jungle you need to kill the small camps. with dmg nerf idk if you can kill small camp and get to large camp fast enough to stack it again. Also jungle give less exp and gold.basically it is prob a 10 min blink dagger instead of 8 | ||

This patch makes more heroes viable in pro games, and so gives more room for teams to have unique playstyles. And that makes the game better to watch. As far as playing is concerned, it doesnt really matter. Unless you are one of those ppl that can only play a couple different heroes and suddenly you are nerfed, there are tons of possibilities for fun picks at pubs. Of course there are a ton of non-hero changes that could cause problems. But maybe it could be great. The patch is just so big thats hard to tell. In general I'm quite happy with this patch and looking forward to playing with it as well as watching it being played. | ||

There's so much wrong with that I can't even begin to explain ;( Not saying you personally are wrong, just in my experience voice chat can be a good facilitator but it takes way more than just that for 2 strangers to play a duo lane correctly. | ||
