lol Bulba's thoughts on the changeS:

Okay, the reworked Medusa ult seems like it might actually be useful now.

Stacking very convenient finally!
And that slow is pretty huge. Interesting in conjuction with the gem increased price and inability to be destroyed.
Easier slamming. I like.
This is actually a pretty decent nerf. May make Drums slightly less desirable for carries, and certainly doesn't help their case on supports.
Huh. This could have pretty large ramifications. You'll have to choose if you want better vision, or camp blocking more judiciously.
This is kind of nice for the melee supports.

And of course the bottle-crow nerf is pretty huge. Still going through the log.

Racecar Doom with Aghanim's looks like a lot of fun on paper.
Fifty gold is nothing broham.

If you have Curse maxed, that's 390 danage and 192 mana lost for everyone, given that it holds the full duration, which is basically a given, since Level 2 Global Silence lasts 6 seconds with Agh's and you're unlikely to get an Agh's before level 11 anyways. Not bad.

New CM rules should definitely make for some interesting mixups of strategy. Teams will probably be forced out of their comfort zones more than they are now.
Tower gold changes are pretty big. Supports will definitely be richer.
These are interesting little changes.
Oh and:
Could definitely make a difference in some of those clutch games.

I think it counted them as units, not as heroes, so now it does more damage.

Also in addition to just generally being more useful, Medusa's stone gaze outright destroying illusions instead of just damaging them for an amount usually not sufficient to kill them is going to make her more of a PL counterpick for me now.
Zeus gets hurt by bottle crow nerf. So does mid Warlock.
Changes aren't made with pub games in mind.
The game is not balanced after pub stats and that is a good thing.
Start up wc3!

I have my key just sitting here next to me, but I know it'll just be a pain and terrible :/
Dazzle's heal is physical which is why it goes through MI.
Omni's is pure so it doesn't.
Doto mechanics lol.
There is a cd on Armlet.
It's just short, 2 seconds.
Most pubs don't bottle crow..
Should be balanced for both pubs and pros.

That would be... nearly impossible.
Really? When did they add it? Totally missed.
Either last patch or the one before.
I liked Medusa before this buff, and now I like her even more. Too bad no one I queue up with has the patience for my Bloodstone/Butterfly build
???
Are you talking about shallow grave? Purify is a targeted ability. Shadow Wave is an AOE. I dont think you can target Shadow Wave on magic immune targets. Plus Shadow Wave is physical while Purification is pure.

o wow, called that dragon knight buff. I hope that carries over to rank 3.
Nice es buff vs. pl.
Not sure what to think of huskar changes, bkb might be out of the core for him. Hood may be in. Interesting he removed him from CM.
Minor wex/quas buff is pretty nice, might push him back in with that extra damage.
Medusa ult is interesting, sounds imba with kunkka.
I think mirana will be a competitive pick soon.
Necrolyte aghanim is awesome and interesting, using that on a carry will fucking turn games.
Panda aghs seems fair, will make fire spirit much more survivable.
Silencer agh sounds imba as shit.
holy shit sb going to pubstomp more.
sk change is nice.
Troll Warlord ult nerf.
WD changes are great, I honestly think with a few small pushes he could be competitive.
That dust of appearance buff practically does what technomancer wanted on pl.
Gameplay changes are a whole other topic.
