Should be the end of Gyro.

TB back into the meta just before TI?

Not enough to bring her back.

Come to see a Terrorblade minor nerfs, found a buff, wasn't disapointed by IceFrog.
I think players forget this hero during Super Major but he is still unstoppable when he is 25

Can we talk about how Chakra Magic is free now? I think that’s going to be a huge game changer in the laning phase.

I don't understand the why they want to make AM more picked. For years he was one of the most OP heroes, now he is a situational pick as he should be. When a hero that is supposed to be an anti-mage is the number one choice for carry you can tell he's op. He's not anti-hero, he's antimage after all!

Huskar: Level 25 Talent changed from 0 Inner Vitality Cooldown to Burning Spears Pure and Pierces Immunity


Oh, I think that might be broken.

Ursa has gotten a bunch of buffs lately, I'm curious when someone uses it as a pos 2/3 when you need some physical damage.

We’ve seen Ursa mid before, but position 3? He’d be playing as shitty Brewmaster.

beastmaster is OP because of his aura so why nerf his armor? also is that a DP nerf or buff?

i think overall the meta from supermajor was pretty good but i felt like meta will revert back to static 5 man tanky cores at TI

RIP gyro and NS, also the SK nerf was a bit uncalled for.

While I think that's a massive buff, Kotl really doesn't fit into the current early fighting meta. He isn't very strong in the early game and he needs 2 items before he comes online, which is just too slow.

Should be pretty obvious by now that IF rarely nerfs the OP part of a hero because he wants heroes to be as different as possible.
low gravity, yes-yes!

I think Gyro would have been fine if the Calldown cd talent and +flak attacks were swapped.

BM is OP because he is a big lane bully thanks to axes, -2 armor means he can't trade as efficiently in lane.

Imo NS will still see play. Probably even more as a pos3 than before, we saw the strengths of it when you give him levels. Crippling fear CD hurts but it means you get probably only 1 off instead of 2 per fight early, and rectifies itself later on.

Gyro got hit the hardest I think with the flak talent change. The Aghs build can somewhat cover that weakness but I don't know if it's enough

Io got hit but probably not hard enough. Naga barely changed either, but maybe for the best.

The huskar talent is irrelevant imo, you don't pick that hero to go late. Could make for some mean late pubs though.

Lycan probably gonna still be top tier

My biggest hope was to see DP erased from the pro meta and she's barely touched. I'm so tired of seeing this boring hero.

Beastmaster's mid-late game weakness is that he's deceptively squishy without BKB. He doesn't normally build tank items and his stat growths are awful. Taking him out of fights is not very difficult.

I want to try to have some fun with offlane Phoenix some more. With the level 20 talent, the Supernova explosion has a 4.25 second duration stun that ignores spell immunity. Still needs to be coupled with another crowd control source to make it effective, but that's a Black Hole disable on a fraction of the cooldown.

I'm sure there are many heroes that are much more perennial than AM
