I don't know why people see playing Support as a chore or something. I find it fun and relaxing. I get to setup a lot of kills, don't need to worry about farming, and still have a huge impact everywhere. That's the thing about support heroes, they're effective and not so dependant on items.

Last time was on November the 14th according to dota academy.

Dignitas didn't have a lot to lose.

Yeah, thats what i think too. Doesn't really mean "morph is back", unless he actually got some buffs, which at least i haven't seen anywhere.

I think they lowered his cast point a teensy tiny bit, but nothing worth mentioning.

YES ! I have random .5 seconds freezes from time to time, I thought it was my PC but apparently I was wrong. Must be some problem with last patch because I never had them before.

To be honest, the lowered cast time is very nice, but I just don't want to pick him until he gets his attack during waveform back.

One of Morphling's core strengths was that he could beat most 1v1 Mids and that Lanaya was not there(Ferrari brought upon the popularity of this hero). Batrider wasn't buffed back then. Morphling's ability to win mid heavily allowed for more flexible laning and as such another hero with an easy lane farm. I don't think you can comfortably solo him mid right now.

I agree, morphling mid is pretty much a thing of the past now, especially since his ganking potential is significantly less than other strong mids in the meta right now like the bat and lanaya that you mentioned

Sad that they fixed the shadow blade interaction with guaranteed crits already

I also want to know more about him. He looks like another very mean STR teamfighter.

Watching N0tail stream is pretty damn sick. Loved him when he played HoN and he seems like he's gotten used to Dota 2 now. Playing a lot of Meepo, haha.
Babyknight, under the name Nawari, writing to N0tail now... apparently he's playing a lot of d3 these days...

In what ways do they pubstomp harder than tiny/centaur do?

Personally my biggest problem is that I'm entirely reliant on the carries playing well - if the carries are bad, you're pretty much fucked no matter how well you play. While it's true in the opposite case (carries playing well but supports playing like crap), you're not entirely reliant on the supports in order to win the game.
That being said, I definitely enjoy playing supports more. Placing that crucial ward that let us see them ganking/jungling, initiating the fight the best way possible, casting the exact needed spell in order to set up a kill is much, much more fun for me than "farmfarmfarm rightclickrightclickrightclick"
