I'm assuming you lack much dota1 experience? AM isn't even the most OP hero in the current game, let alone in the history of it.

Shadow Demon in his original incarnation; or Clinkz/Medusa in 5.84.

Oddjob from Goldeneye. Too short to auto aim at properly. There was always an argument if anyone picked Oddjob or Jaws when we were playing Goldeneye multiplayer...

I forget his name but I know it's a recruitable hero from Ogre Battle 64. Personally I'd say a lich with one of those attack all spells is the most overpowered thing in that game.

Not so much a unit - more like the fact that you could kick people right in the face and at worst get a yellow card where a sliding tackle could result in a red card

I know it was a pain to get the 7 chaos emeralds, but the game becomes a piece of cake afterwards (superspeed and invincibility? yes please!). Also, mega double jump (which kills everything on screen) after you get the super chaos emerals in sonic and knuckles.

The only problem was Launch Base Zone. God forbid you get more than 50 rings on that level.

The special shots in World Cup Soccer on NES. Ironically not so special, as you could do it anytime, from anywhere, just by pressing A+B simultaneously, and it would just demolish the goalie most of the time. That shit is broken. Some countries got mad crappy ones (Brazil if I recall was a pretty crappy "wave" one that missed the net often), but if you picked a country that shot it straight at the net, it was unstoppable. As a result, I always played as Cameroon because they were so OP.
"power overwhelming"... work, dammit, work!

Then you had Death Knights in their original incarnation, I remember having a Rdruid partner who went grey at 21 because of death plague consuming all his HoTs.

Don't know if the thread is confined to video games, but previous edition Vampire Counts were fucking ridiculous sometimes. Units of 40-60 Ghouls that if they beat you in combat, and outnumbered you (which they would), would auto-break you. Also the entire army of Daemons.

Nothing worse than vanilla rogues. And vanilla spriests.



That shit

wtf was that.

In RTS, there are no overpowered units, just overpowered armies. You need to look at the whole picture before you can say a single miniscule fraction of a player's options need to be redesigned.

Take the Zero Hour Humvee for example, the universally accepted "most imbalanced unit" in the history of C&C. Combined with Ambulances, the Humvee was like Brood War's Marine Medic combo on steroids, complete with a convoluted stimpack, unrivaled mobility, the threat of critical mass, and the ability to constantly and quickly adapt to the enemy composition. USA needs to spam humvees against you to stand a chance, China needs to build a certain combo and pray you don't go no econ SC rush, 1 ambo 2 vee before he even has a chance to set up.

But if you take it away, or even remove the Ambulance that allows it to be so goddamn sustainable, USA ends up being the weakest army by far. The Community Balance Patch proved this. And so USA and USAL is not the strongest army in the game just because it has the cheapest humvees, they actually places 5th or 6th at best.

Units cannot be imbalanced, only the entire army can. Units CAN HELP to balance or imbalance an army but they cannot be imbalanced in and of themselves, only when related to the other options and to the entire game around them. At that point, you must label the ARMY ITSELF imbalanced.
get stronger play longer
