Blog update sounds very promising, looking forward to more bug fixes.

Whoops.
The HUD redesign was expected, looking at how the overall design changed across the UI. It's just going to make everything feel whole now. Well, time to start playing a bit more on the Reborn client. I just want now for them to let me choose three language preferences like on the old client instead of just two.
Btw, would I benefit fresh installing Reborn now in any way?

Juicy update, happy to see that they are switching all the focus into the new client so soon. Also are we able to watch Tournaments from the client now as well? Didn't see anything regarding that on the blog post.
Yeah and even though the games looks sharper and better overall, I get framedrops, something I don't get on the normal client.

hello I want play tauren chieftain
Before this patch. I discovered it in July-August and it's ruined the main client for me.
How long has this been a thing?
Wait it's not in main client?!
It already defaults to the 64 bit client. No need for shortcuts.
nvm read it wrong

thankfully after downloading patch it deletes the previous shit
4:55, better push the patch and hope the whole thing hasn't burned to the ground by 8 tomorrow
so i was thinking
6.85 (tentative)
major nerfs:
-Leshrac
-Lina?
-Gyrocopter?
-Bounty Hunter
-Tusk?
Minor nerfs:
-Earthshaker
-Bloodseeker
-Phantom Lancer
-Storm Spirit
-Winter Wyvern?
-Anti-Mage?
-Templar Assassin?
-Queen of Pain
-Naga Siren
-Undying? (probably not since he got so many nerfs already in the minor patches since 6.84)
-Techies?
Buffs: (both major and minor)
-Lone Druid
-Kunkka
-Alchemist
-Batrider
-Beastmaster
-Magnus
-Lycan?
-Legion Commander
-Timbersaw
-Terrorblade
-Death Prophet (even with the addition of octarine core which i thought was gonna help her immensely, shes still really bad for a hero that relies on her ult to be useful in games, it has such a long cd and shes so squishy for too long)
-Doom
-Brewmaster
-OD
-Invoker (help this hero pls)
-Lifestealer
-Puck
-Elder Titan
-Centaur
-Jakiro
Item wise:
-glimmer cape and Solar crest nerfs (way too cost efficient and strong in their current form)
-Bloodstone nerf
Other stuff:
-1 or 2 new heroes (pit lord/arc warden)
-Jungle changes regarding stacking maybe
-Add Oracle and Earthspirit to cm pls
thoughts?

nerfing jungling would destroy heroes that aren't "omg op the meta omg noooo" right now; if that's the goal just ratchet down the remnant damage a tick or w/e, don't ruin chen & co. further
nerfing stacking doesn't nerf jungling. Junglers like enigma, chen and ench rarely do stacks by themselves. It hurts heroes with aoe clears like qop, ta, storm, sf, who use those stacks to catch back up. They might make it that mud golems generate a magic resist aura to make it harder to clear larger stacks similar to when they added that passive to one of the ancient that gave aoe creeps more hp.

all the pro junglers stack for themselves all the time; the basic chen/ench jungling strat is to grab a creep or two, stack a few camps at once, and clear with a wildwing
nerfing stacking would directly nerf their ability to get early farm, gank earlier, and gain early control for the team
it would ruin them
the chen nerf was already too much
give minibashes

The only junglers(to my knowledge) that rely on magic damage to kill creeps are Batrider and Dark Seer, so giving magic resist to jungle creeps would only nerf those two's jungling ability. Batrider would need a significant buff to make up for this, Dark Seer already needs a nerf so this would be an okay one.

Sounds about right, maybe BS will get a minor nerf, a longer CD to Rupture would suffice IMO, maybe also making Thirst visibility threshold scale as it levels up instead of the default 30% we have now.
