Competetively I think 6.81 is the best patch we've ever seen. I would only be hoping for small tweaks, but I do think those tweaks are overdue. I also want to see LC, phoenix and Kaolin in CM asap. I feel like it's more a desire for 6.81c, and for me it's largely for the sake of pubs. Void is pretty much cancer now that people have worked out that he's a mega-hard carry that can kill anyone he wants to from 8 minutes in, and is bullshit to gank because RNG. Tinker/naga are also pretty annoying even if they don't have high winrates. It's all Void. And a little Razor and Viper mixed in. Void simply makes the game unenjoyable, no matter which team he's on. I don't think anyone would really shed tears if he were to vanish from the game outright, except for those people who abuse the latest imbalanced hero to get higher MMR.

I really liked him before he was OP. A hard carry that can properly contribute to teamfights is nice.
A hard carry who is the teamfight is not, however. He's also got way too much low-%, high-impact RNG, which is the worst kind.

I actually like Void and played him a bit pre-being good. He needs being scaled back, though. And I just generally don't like tanky mids who build Mek and do stuff by standing in fights and not dying.

Spectre, Tiny, Luna, Weaver, Medusa, if we're limiting ourselves to extreme lategame heroes with very high ability to contribute to fights throughout the game.
Though Luna doesn't perfectly qualify for extreme lategame, I admit.

If you don't like X hero in every game, counter pick.
|
The thing is? There isn't exactly a counterpick to Void. Beating a Void is entirely based on whether your team manages to shut him down before he gets items, and there's a fuckton of confounding variables. It's not like picking something like TA against mid Puck, or AM against core WK.
|
Then focus on shutting him down yourself. Pick heroes that can gank, or pick stuff like Doom, shadow shaman, etc.
|
You act like I don't. Then they have a Viper and a Razor who win their lanes solo. Game is fun. Game is wonderful.
Really, there's a reason he's free MMR, and it's not because he's easy to "counter pick."
|
He has 52% winrate according to dotabuff. Calling any hero "free MMR" is an excuse.

Play veng, swap your team mate out of the chrono, watch as void runs out of the chrono because he is so fucking fast, then tries to run back into the chrono to kill you, chrono runs out, you stun his ass.

what if you're chrono'd who's gonna save you then

Probably both

The only weakness of void is himself. If he lands a bad chrono he's wrecked.

So your point is that bad players have a tendency of dragging an imbalanced hero's winrate down?

Well, I can't really judge if you're a "bad" player or not. The fact of the matter is that Void isn't Terrorizing games across the board and complaining that a hero is broken isn't productive.

Hence why he got the model rework in place of heroes that probably needed it more
|
The only thing that's productive right now is Valve nerfing that shit, because it simply isn't fun to play with. Wisp and Batrider's broken days were a-okay in pubs. Hell, even Magnus was bearable. It's just an awful goddamn hero all around.
But tell me, really, what were you thinking when you said "counter pick?" Because that's just boggling my mind trying to figure that out. You might want to share your thoughts with competitive players, so that they can learn how to "counter pick" Void.
