DotA2 - Original Thread

Your wish is Valve's command.

Nope, they didn't do anything of what i wanted, especially since Valve technically doesn't handle balance.
I want IceFrog to either up the mana cost or cooldown of shockwave because he's back to being one of the best solo mids due to how well he pushes lanes and controls runes. I want these changes:
Cooldown or mana change on shockwave.
Skewer should scale or not go through BKB, probably both. The range is too much at level 1.
Possibly increase the cooldown of empower so it's not on 24/7 on 2~3 heroes.
The ulti is fine, number wise. His ulti was never really broken, but because of how good his laning is now he no longer has the problems he used to have.

Magnus is the strongest hero in DotA right now, hands down. Mid-game impact is too high. Old magnus was too bad at laning though. Some number changes and he'd be back to being a good hero but not what he is right now, which is a nightmare combined with any kind of teamfighting lineup.

Glad they fixed empower staying on with BKB though.
And thank pineappleing god they finally fixed the neut pulling, holy pineapple.

- Added Pseudo Random chances for the following items: Daedalus, Crystalys, Abyssal Blade, Basher, Heaven's Halbred, Maelstrom, Mjollnir, Static Charge, Monkey King Bar, Poor Man's Shield, Sange, Sange and Yasha, Stout Shield, Vanguard.

pineapple YES This is a buff to Abyssal and basher though, you'll be building up bash chance while it's on cooldown, unless valve took that into account, i hope they did.


Big news:

 Spoiler

Thank god, i hope 6.77 brings back the stability of the older patches, i want a good half year without patches again.
