Duel not disabling passives is a huge nerf. I guess same for doom and chrono, but for LC it's way more obvious because she's standing there getting hit by them. Does that mean she wants to buy basher now?
Lesh is now overbuffed about 5x, imo. He does approximately ten bazillion damage with every single spell.
I am a big fan of OD and Ogre's %'s being increased and scaling the effects. 10% chance for essence aura was the suck.
Phoenix aghs is.... absurd.
Puck Dream Coil no longer ignores invisible units or Illusions Aghanim's Scepter Dream Coil snap stun now pierces Spell Immunity Aghanim's Scepter Dream Coil snap stun duration increased from 1.5/2.25/3 to 1.5/3/4.5
YES OH YES
Permanent Invisibility is now a basic ability Oh good. He's now in every single pub ever until the end of time. Also instant best chassis in ability draft.
Headshot now causes a 0.5 second 100% MS and AS slow instead of a 0.25 second stun
That's a big nerf, imo. I wonder why he's nerfing sniper when he's buffing every single other obnoxious pub hero.

The LC change is a double edged sword. On the one hand, it means dueling a carry is pretty much suicide if you aren't at least even in farm. On the other hand, she can benefit from Moment of Courage, bash, lifesteal, evasion, etc during it. Halberd seems AMAZING on her now.

Basic ability meaning that they swapped Blink Strike with it. It's now his second ability.

Rune control is massive now. Sven support buffed (ult can help allies now). Sniper stupid stun done away with, YES. Terror and LC move into CM, expected. Will make pro games more fun. Bloodcyka change... I have no idea. At first glance, it seems to make him stronger, but harder to play well - hopefully this will end the "Blood is noob hero" stereotype. Offlanes became weird. Rosh pit is... largely the same from what I can tell. PL... No idea how he will work. Probably why they took him out of CM, so they can figure out his new dynamic. Void nerf W000T.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Chen change though. When this patch goes live he's the first one I'll play. Next is blood, I want to test out these new toys. What I am most looking forward to though is the wild flailing in pro games while everyone figures stuff out. Off the top of my head, we are likely to see dual bottle carries and a lot of support fighting over runes in the river.
Also, it'll be interesting to see how this effect pubs. I forsee a lot of squabbling over who gets the bounty rune and ganking becoming favored over pushing.

•Flying Courier Speed Burst cooldown increased from 40 to 90 •Flying Courier Speed Burst duration reduced from 20 to 4
Mekansm •Restore mana cost increased from 150 to 225
Well, new meta is going to be something.

dueling pa or void is probably suicide/useless now that passives are still on.

50 XP +5/minute? I don't understand what that's saying.
He gets 50 xp for using rune, and 5 more per min the rune is active...?

Have anyone read the XP change for killing heroes? Firstblood before horns now grants 20xp lol.
XP bounty for killing now depends of overall teams XP difference. I think it even favors deathballs more as they often trail behind in XP and they'll even get more XP from kills.

It will take months for the players to understand the whole new possibilities that this patch offers, similar to the change of the creeps equilibrium, but bigger.

What are all the implications on the 300 Mana on LD's bear, aside from Dagon?

Mjolnir would be a good candidate, also I know I'm going to sound like clan_iraq, but Manta Style on the bear seems legit.

I think it means the rune gives more the longer the game goes on - at the start, it gives 50 xp. At 6 minutes, it gives 80 xp. Games that run super late could potentially have massive gold/xp bonus from the runes.
