I think the patch will hit right after the qualifiers end. That would be the smartest time to implement it. Well, Icefrog pretty much confirmed that 6.78 will be a patch with many new features(likes heroes) and balance, so it will be quite a big pathc

Dendi goes carry everything.
The leak on 6.78 is legit because icefrog said in emails that he thought 6.78 for sure and probably 6.78b would be out before TI3. The june/july part could only be wrong if 6.78 came out in may

Early June is pretty much the latest it could come out.

Pretty sure i've seen that before, it's pretty old. They say this are hidden heroes that icefrog didn't finish.

Sure, Armlet turns out to be better than it seemed from the start. At the time it really didn't seem like it provided more than maelstrom, but I suppose it depends on what you're doing with LD as well. You still play hipster-dota, no escaping it.

The prime targets for TC's aura are low mobility carries that rely on defensive ability to stay in the fight--because in those cases you can reliably keep the aura on your desired target. Heroes like Luna, DK, Juggernaut, that don't have mobility skills and expect to just engage teamfights head-on.
@Torte, item start should be either the normal 3xBranch+Tango Bottle-rush start or have Stout Shield, not 1x Gauntlet. AC and Medallion are both situational items. AC is an item practically made for TC if he can actually get the farm to get one.

He's taking a coffee break with a mug that says "BIG BOSS" on it, a juggernaut jumps him (he's skywrath), he promptly owns him with one hands while continuing to casually sip boss mug. Now if Demon did the same thing, people would call him a cocky no life bastard. And if that was SingSing, a new shrine would probably be built.
Haha Demon would yell "DEMON" and sing would say one of his little sayings. Neither has the bossitude to conceive of owning a big boss mug though.

It's kind of funny that of the three -armor items in the game, you chose to list the one that's actually pretty bad on TC and not the two that are good.

After watching Dendi's Elder Titan game just now, I have to remember never to play ET with a Kunkka on my team.

I didn't understand why AC is so good on ET and when I mentioned Medallion yesterday, it didn't get much support so I didn't include it in an already rather long list of situational.

According to dota2 wiki: Dragon Blood - The armor upgrade counts as base armor, not an addition. So it should get affected by the aura. Or do I miss something?

It's listed as base armor in the UI (adds to the white number rather than the green number), but it's not actually treated as base armor by the one effect in DotA that actually distinguishes base and bonus armor (Natural Order).
So visually it's base armor, but functionally it's not.
