I don't really like the nerf on mekansm. Burst heal is important in team-fight oriented line-up more than 5-man push meta.  | ||

Also I like the rune change. It promotes more active supports in the early game to help with rune control, something they should've already been doing but now it is made more explicit/beneficial. | ||

Haven't supports been hogging runes throughout 6.81? | ||

One more thing: we on the Dota 2 team have a number of updates in the works right now that we’re really excited about, some for the rest of this year, and a big update for early next year. But we’re pretty sure we won’t be able to make enough progress on the larger update if we put it down to work on Diretide – so we’ve decided that we’re not going to ship a Diretide event this year. We know that last year we weren’t clear enough in our communication about this, so this year we wanted to be up front about it early. Next year will bring monumental changes to Dota 2, and we’re confident that when you’ve seen what we’ve been working on, you’ll agree it was worth it. This patch is insane. Loving all the changes but did anyone else notice that on the front page Valve said they weren't going to do a Diretide event this year? Sadness. | ||

This may be nice for people who get bored and always want things to be refreshing, but as for me this is too much at once. Its not even about whether i agree with the change or not. I've initially disagreed with few recent patches and ended up changing my mind so hopefully i change my mind again, but i cant see my self liking massive overhauls like these being the norm for too long. Icefrog seems to do this once every two years. There is literally no reason for Valve to want to keep this game locked down in a specific state or stop doing this over hauls. It keeps the game fresh and people seeing new things. | ||

Really? I remember there was a certain period of time where mids didn't even bother to rotate for runes. Instead, they left them to the supports/offlaner. | ||

But I'm hopeful I'll be positively surprised later on. The timing for the patch is interesting to say the least. Right before there are loads of big LANs, and the top teams may not even have that much time to practice in the middle of their traveling. | ||

#worthreading Even though, i'm rather dissatisfied with those Void's "nerfs". And Doom's as well. *walks away to play Sven support* *comes back* AH, AND FINALLY CONCUSSIVE SHOT IS JOINTABLE, THANKS, ICEFROG. And no more awks with dream coils. *runs away again* | ||
