IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

The fact that in newer patches he buffs a hero has nothing to do what I was saying. The living armor thing was several patches after the ult change. The point is he DOES nerf heroes that are not OP in competitive Dota and have issues in pubs, and sometimes he also nerfs heroes who arent an issue in either, because of something he doesnt like about the hero.

Of course in most cases the heroes also received buffs that made them better. Almost every hero has been buffed overall in Dota if we got back a few years.

You heard it here first folks, a new hero, a new game mode, A-Z challenge support, in-game trophies, Bug fixes, Bot AI, and a bunch of other things aren't enough for one update.

But it doesn't address my specific issue with dota and I really think Valve holding something back because my issue is really important.

Excuse me I need to go a quick google search for people that agree with me so I can prove we are legion. I think I need like 2-3 people.

Death Ward Riki was obviously better, etc. First there was a trend of heroes getting weaker, since really old heroes were OP as shit, but that was to make it more level, since other heroes were just weaker. If we only go back like 5 years, heroes have mostly gotten stronger.

that is not what i said, i said that i think they have more. They usually do 1-day updates or 3-day updates where they reveal more stuff on other days. It clearly isn't a 1-day update so there might be more.

To be fair, everybody and their uncle wants 6.82 which apparently isn't in the patch.

This is a 1-day update, but valve felt like they had to release the notes early because they had announced techies "by the end of august" (even though they actually only said that they were going to try for that date) and are afraid of another diretide scenario.

old school riki was weird, he was the only char that had 2 spells you couldn't get at lvl 1, perma invis and chaos ward. Invis was lvl 4, chaos lvl 6

I agree that the game needs an update to get rid of the limited drafting and game play we are seeing.

And I also know that IceFrog is going to change a bunch of random shit that we never thought of, because that is what he always does.

I'm a little bit relived. To be honest Tobi is good but he is my least favorite play by play caster.

And he is just obnoxious to listen sometimes.

LD is just relaxing. Voice so soothing.

hahahaha yeah he gets a bit more excited sometimes .. but that happens to all casters .. i wish he would return to cast like he did during TI3 grand finals .. It just excites you in the wrong moments.
