Also, good luck hearing the little *puff* sound of a Magic Wand in a teamfight. | ||

Particularly on game-changing teamfight items like Mekansm and Pipe, the sound and visuals need to stick out more (and the buffs need to be more visible). Also, good luck hearing the little *puff* sound of a Magic Wand in a teamfight. Are you playing on low settings..? Pipe is a circle of green light around every hero, it's the most obvious item effect ingame. Mek also has ripples of energy, dunno how to describe it, but it should be very obvious when people pop those items. | ||

I don't care that Pipe is the most obvious item effect in the game right now. It could be WAY more clear than it is. Mek is obvious when you pop it. The problem is the armor buff you have AFTER you pop it doesn't stand out. | ||

I think the mek effect is decent, the only problem is that you don't know which hero used the item. I really don't like the healing salve effect. It's just a little too subtle. | ||

Static Charge ability on Mjollnir is a great example of how obvious certain "cooldown" items should be, imo. But on the other hand, you can inspect enemies inventories now. Might just be -sd, I dunno, but it's a big deal. | ||

I can't discern things in any graphic setting, there once was colorblind mode in there but they just removed it.... I lost hope. | ||

It let you remove/add items into the list and save them as a bookmark. So you can have different item suggestions for naix lane/jungle as well as adding necrobook 3 into your lycan build. Is there a separate patch for that? I thought they added that as a default feature a month or two ago. I can edit the suggested items for each hero and have not done anything special to my client. | ||
