It will still be dota. The changes are big, but no one got laser cannons. It's not nuts, it's till messing up towers, ganks and big right clicks

Plus learning new stuff is fun.

as much as people are cheering/moaning, nearly every hero can be played in the same way as they were before, they are just now more/less effective at it. I think the exception is that bat can't go mid well anymore.

You guys... Elder Titan wasn't really nerfed much.

I laughed way too hard at this for my own health. I am, however, legitimately excited to see way more NS. Love that hero to death.

So it seems like weak laning heroes are getting buffs to their general ability mid game onwards, and strong laners getting nerfed in lane.

Hmm...I was wondering, if night comes faster, like in 4 minutes as opposed to 6 minutes, will ns be levelled enough to kill stuff, as in max void a few points in the other 2?

My biggest regret with these changes so far. Why can't they make alle line stuns etc. like Nyx impale ground target only? Make shit skillshots, those are fun and foster consistency.

I think it'll be like the way ferrari430 plays ns where you use the first night as like a way to secure runes/farm and maybe gank if they're out of position but otherwise you really start to snowball during the second night since 4 minutes seems pretty quick, but I guess we'll just have to see how it works

I think the 4 minute night would be necessary for NS to do anything in lane because of the courier nerfs. Ordinarly NS just bottlecrowed and voided creeps til 6 minutes when he would hopefully have bottle boots and maybe an urn if the lane was even. Now it is less important for him to bottle crow - he can just sit in lane til the first night and actually do something after that. then he can extend the first night with his now beastly ultimate and not have to wait as long for the second one. NS will definitely be very strong in the upcoming days

Still dunno.

On the one hand, yeah if you're laning well then you can gank earlier, but on the other hand you can use that time to completely dominate mid from 4-8 and then gank at your will. Also Darkness is now good enough to not skip it at 6 which makes him more interesting IMO.

The buyback change is going to drag out some games, if the carry doesnt have buyback then fights will be delayed untill they do. Passive gold change is annoying. The kill streak reward buff is annoying. The jungle and pull nerfs are unnecessary. The rosh timing change is silly.
A lot of the overall game changes seam to lessen the reward you get for playing well in the early game and proper pulling from supports in the jungle.
Not a fan of this patch

I'm confused about the spectre change - does the continuous reality mean i can reality to manta illusions or just haunt illusions? does it mean that reality can be used on multiple haunt illusions (which would be pretty cool) per haunt?

Also the silencer change - what is dis, league of legends?
