Dunno if it's real or not, but it seems credible. It buffs a lot of underused heroes/items. Except the poison nova but why not.

Actually how often would you use poison Nova for pushing towers? Seems rather useless most of the time, especially that it would probably deal like 25% of damage

Yeah that's why I said why not, in practice, except to backdoor or during rax pushes, it wouldn't even be too much (typically the type of change that must go trough a beta phase to know how it would work)

I can see it used in a teamfight when pushing uphill, catch the tower or raxes in poison nova as well as enemy heroes. Keep in mind you can't heal buildings, unlike heroes.

Treant Protector?

But yeah, it sounds broken. Destroy T3, walk in and ulti rax and T4s. Free gold from the small buildings.

There you go. Early early screenshot. Prealpha 1.5299.30. Seriously people sometimes want to believe these kind of fake releases. Hilarious.

If you really think dota 2 ever looked like this get your head checked. This screams flash for beginners 101.

Treeant heal is negligible in terms of stopping actual pushes :p

Maybe make his tree armour an activatable skill that acts as a glyph, but when it's in cooldown, the passive is also disabled.

I know you didn't put much effort into that but yours is much more obviously fake than the 'leaked' screenshots. I've only looked at one (the one with the venomancer behind the trees on the right side of the map) but that looked possibly genuine.

If you are so desperate to gap up this false information and give someone the statisfaction. Oh well go ahead. It is really pointless since nothing will happen till the patch is released except you get all worked up over it.

Lycan -1 base armor was reverted. He lose however 2 armor in Wolf form and 0.35 str gain for level, i like it, make the hero slightly less ulti-centric. Batrider buffed in str gain is reasonable, it's not noticeable unless later on, where he sucks.
Finger of death bouncing on another target is amazing. I would've liked Lina ulti to be changed, not Lion's but whatever.

* Primal Split units are no longer invulnerable to Black Hole - THANK YOU

* Kunkka's base armor increased by 1 - Already one of my favourite laners, this will make him a more viable solo mid

* Armlet HP regeneration increased from 5 to 8
* Armlet lifedrain increased from 37 to 40

Armlet better and better while not activated, i like it.

Drow 60 bonus agi will make it even more of a midgame carry, hit dat lvl 16 ftw.

* Treants magic resistance decreased from 33% to 25% - good, furi's creep were annoying to clear out

* Clockwerk Goblin strength gain increased from 2.4 to 2.7 -
* Power Cogs damage/drain from 60/90/120/150 to 80/120/160/200
* Power Cogs duration from 3/4/5/6 to 3/4.5/6/7.5
thanks god, this hero is so fun but so bad. I think a CD buff on non-agha ulti is needed, but this help too.

* Shackleshot from 0.25 to 0.1 duration
don't understand this one, somewhere he say it doesn't stun anymore if it misses, here it say it's now a 0.1 secs stun. I hope it's the 0.1 secs one, or WR is getting a big nerf.

* Acid Spray manacost from 160 to 115/130/145/160
* Unstable Concoction max damage from 130/200/270/340 to 150/220/290/360
* Goblin's Greed bonus scaling adjusted from 2/4/6/8 + 2 to 4/6/8/10 + 1/2/3/4
* Enemeis can no longer see the countdown numbers for Chemical Rage
Those are some huge improvements for alche. All of his three spells are now good with just 1 level.

* Static Field aoe increased from 1000 to 1200
* Thundergod's Wrath cd from 120 to 100
Thank you, Zeus can't tank. Won't change the viability of the hero however. Still paper, slow and with 0 way to escape.

* Doom's base armor increased by 1
Doom back to the meta, you heard it here first.

* Phantom Lancer agility gain from 2.8 to 3.4
* Phantom Lance slow duration from 3 to 3.25
This look like a bit too much of a buff for this hero. 0.6 agi per level is no joke and he already was a huge lategamer. Radi is buffed too.

* Anti-mage movement speed reduced from 320 to 315
Nothing huge, but relevant, to make AM more fair.

* Fiery Soul attack speed bonus increased from 40/50/60/70 to 40/55/70/85
Carry Lina? Won't change anything imho.

* Lothar's Edge duration from 9 to 12 seconds
DIS ITEM SO GOOD. 12 seconds make it more viable as a scouting item, still good on kunkka and for fun item on everyone else.

* Gyrocopter base movement speed from 305 to 315
* Homing Missle now gives you vision of the target it is seeking
* Flak Cannon aoe increased from 800 to 900
More of a chaser tank? This hero is so confusing on what you should get on him.

* Dagon cooldown progression from 40/36/32/28/24 to 35/30/25/20/15
:D

* Vendetta movement speed from 10/15/20% to 16/18/20%
* Mana Burn rate from 4x Int to 5x Int
* Spiked Carapace manacost from 50 to 40
* Spiked Carapace now lasts for 2.5 seconds (down from 4.5) seconds, but reflects and stuns all sources of damage over that period instead of just the first one
Impale changes were reverted, but those are pretty good too. Vendetta lvl1 felt underwhelming, now it's way better. Mana burn in laning is also more viable now, thanks to fixed mana cost. The Spiked carapace change seems worse for laning but we'll see.

Roshan Change is definitely the biggest thing, if true. Ramp toward river instead of dire side seems huge, dunno how Dire mid lane will get the bot rune now, i'm pretty excited to see the change.

I'm not diving into it with numbers and shouting that the world is at an end. I'm just saying it's plausible.

Yeah I'm not sure the pictures are related to the notes, the pics seems to come from the early beta or dev version.

Degen Aura increased from 300 to 315

I like this one, seems like a totally waste of time to even change this if the change is so small :p


* Last Word intelligence steal from 1/2 (allies/self) kills to 2 always
* Silencer strength growth from 1.7 to 2.2

this could be good, silencer def needs a buff.

* Force Staff cooldown increased from 20 to 24
* Can no longer Force Staff through Kinetic Field

Like this

* Doom's base armor increased by 1

He needs this.

* Finger of Death Aghanim now bounces once to a nearby enemy unit up to 200 units away (tooltip not updated yet)

WTF!? Does aghs also increase dmg as it does now?

Seems op

* Vendetta movement speed from 10/15/20% to 16/18/20%
* Mana Burn rate from 4x Int to 5x Int
* Nerubian Assassin's Impale damage increased from 80/140/200/260 to 80/160/240/320
* Nerubian Assassin's Impale travel time decreased from 1600 to 700
* Nerubian Assassin's Mana Burn manacost reduced from 90/110/130/150 to 100
* Spiked Carapace manacost from 50 to 40
* Spiked Carapace now lasts for 2.5 seconds (down from 4.5) seconds, but reflects and stuns all sources of damage over that period instead of just the first one


This is a little to much, reduce some mana cost on him and the give the spiked carapace buff and he would be ok I think :p


All in all, don't really know if I trust that these are real. They could be but there are no prof.
Likes most of the changes IF it turns out to be real and 2 new heroes are always good :p

Doesn't look too bad - but I'd be surprised with another new hero after 4 new heroes last patch, it seems a little unlikely.
For every battle honour a thousand heroes die alone, unsung, and unremembered.
