Does Skywrath's ult stack with itself? If so, I don't care that OD's aura doesn't work, that's still hilarious.

does the Lich buff mean your own team gets the XP from sacrificed creeps?

Wait a minute... is a a minute cooldown to use a tango to eat a tree each time or only a minute cooldown to give a charge to someone else?!?!

The CD is for giving it to someone else.

Also, it'll be interesting to see how teams will do in the future, since this means pulling is basically over. Or well, you just can't pull a ton to your carry anymore.


I think you mean 'pooling'. Unless you actually meant pulling, in which case I'm confused because I didn't see the part in the notes that kills pulling.

Some (incorrectly, I argue) use "pulling" instead of "pooling" as the phenomenon of support buying regen items to others.

Then again, I think the same thing about people who use the term "ganging" instead of "ganking".

...
why would you use pulling? Pulling is about pulling creeps out. pooling is about POOLING your gold on one hero

POOLING IS AN ACTUAL TERM. PEOPLE POOL THEIR MONEY.

No idea why people use the incorrect term. People are stupid and misuse of words spread?

I generally agree or at least dont mind the hero changes very much. Some nerfs that were certainly called for imo (e.g. titan, naga, troll), some nice adjustments control-wise (e.g. thd), but there is also some seemingly random stuff worked in. I have a hard time rationalising some of the changes, but it will liven up the meta, which is a good thing. There will of course be a short time of confusion and general mayhem, but that is ok.

What concerns me is the rather drastic changes to some core game mechanics and i cannot say i agree very much with those. The jungling changes are a grey area. It will be easier to jungle, but also less rewarding. I feel that these are geared towards pub play more then pro play and i cant say i agree with that. On the bright side, there may be some added variety in junglers and thus an expansion of the viable hero pool. Laning will be turned upside-down through the pulling and XP changes. It is harder to deny XP and to pull in general and a lot of camps die faster so that pulling may actually PUSH the lane now. I strongly disapprove of the tango and salve changes, this is a team game and distribution of initial resources should be a team decision.

Lastly, the courrier changes are just so random. 65 hp means it will easily take 2 hits in the early game to bring down, giving a lot more room for error and the new "no flying chicken before 3 mins" rule is just very arbitrary. Rosh timing also doesnt make sense to me, it just adds randomness where none need exist...

Still no changes to Lanaya 2-3 patches now! Buff her

Serious note this patch is huge. I am having a very hard time trying to believe this real but I guess if Cyborgmatt and Valve posted it then it's legit. Wonder when it will come out.

My question is, was IceFrog involved in patching? We usually see a DotA 1 counterpart and I don't see it this time.

More Time to snipe the courier, but 2 hits to do so, and the courier moves faster.

I think he was, a lot of these changes seem like his style.
Usually you'd see devs decreasing randomness... he's one of the few devs who encourage randomness in "competitive" games.

The rosh timing is a great change, it forces teams to control the pit more than they had to previously. Instead of just showing up for a quick aegis you have to check the pit to see if he's back.

Many of the things in this patch are impossible to put in WC3's engine.

Wonder if drow aura will work with visage familiars again. With the old aura you could easily get 50 bonus dmg and the new aura that would be 65 bonus dmg so farmiliars will have 30 seconds of about 150+dps per farmiliar x_x
