Yea. Same with Aghs Skywrath. It's nice the ult is 0, but how many times can you *really* cast that shit. Twice on a good day. Then again, if you can land it twice...ggwp.
No, they are weaker.
Less HP and less armor.
All of these changes...it's like a brand new doto.

I blinked and he was already on dire spawn wow
When I read that "weaker camps" part I thought it like "overall the camps are weaker cause there are more small camps and less neutral so they are easier to kill"
But yeah less hp for the big creeps and less exp is still a nerf to junglres. As Bruno just said, is a big nerf to level 1 junglers because now the small camp is the pull camp too, you can do one or the other, and the enemy can block both options with one ward

Apparently the Pudge-cliff 5 second collisionless state works on allies too. I wonder if that could be used as a legitimate strategy for anything.

Never seen an eth blade drow/clinkz? Eth the carry, orb walk all the supports/squishies to death unchallenged for the next few seconds. 40 damage/attack speed and physical immunity was no joke.

I dont know how I feel about that change. If you pull someone with Pudge, get someone, he gets 5 sec free movement but you dismember for 4. Is the 1 free sec enough to get out?

Dota has changed.
Dota has changed. It's no longer about tri laning, bottle crowing, or jungling. It's an endless series of mid battles fought by Invokers and Bloodseekers. Dota - and its consumption of gold - has become a well-oiled game. Dota has changed. Buffed heroes carry buffed items use buffed spells. Patch changes inside the game system enhance and regulate their abilities. Map control. Roshan control. Vision control. Battlefield control. Everything is monitored and kept under control. Dota has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control...All in the name of avoiding feeding from imba heroes. And he who controls the game...controls #TI4. Dota has changed. When the game is under total control...Dota becomes godlike.

No because it doesn't work in dota 2, you can't manual cast orbs on ethereal targets.

Faceless got a buff too
Yoy should be able to do it with anyone who has a range spell on dire, since small dragons take damage from spells.

Vengeful Spirit with Eul's. Is the .75 free sec enough?
Or just throw that Eul's on Pudge. Or, if the $$$ is flowing, Abyssal.
I'm with you on this one... Not too sure how thought-out this particular change is.
Also, Tango and Salve $ cost changes are about to render the current in-game guides useless, even with the starting gold change.
Burn it all. Begin anew. Did Tyler Durden help with this patch?

Juggernaut will be ridiculous now. Small changes, but pretty big ones. Could see him being FotM carry easily.
EE drafting Drow against fnatic in game 2: http://www.twitch.tv/beyondthesummit
The ethereal change is a nerf i think, you already want to come close to heroes getting omnislashed (unless you're two supports and he's high level or something like that), now with a ghost scepter you don't even have to put yourself at risk to help your teammate.
He's saying that you eth blade the enemy carry so he can't attack your team while you kill the rest of his team with orb walk.
I've finally come home and I'm reading the changes after the general ones and this patch is seriously gigantic.

dave is ok
aztek is ok
Invisible Force Staff Riki is my new go-to build.
Aghs/Refresher time $$
EternalEnvy-sama who art in heaven,
hallowed be your mouse.
Your mercy come,
your draft be done,
in matchmaking, as it is in captains.
Give us this day our daily dota,
and forgive us our inferior tactics,
as we also have forgiven those less skilled.
And lead us not into [A] fanboyism,
but deliver us #TI4.
Amen.

This is huge!!
The rubick Aghs 5sec cool down sounds awesome! And now with more money per sec/longer ward timer I can actually get the Aghs earlier.
Anyone know the Linken Sphere cool down for casting on an ally?

It always is this way. There are ridiculous changes and then they settle and everyone adapts just fine.
Probably the same as normal.
eclipse scepter upgrade got buffed but probably not enough to make it worthwhile
glaive bounce damage nerfed but it can bounce back to units it's already hit
looks like a wash for her
Well silencing/purging didn't get any change so you don't have to worry about that. As for tanking up, what do you mean? Do you try to build items like vanguard or blade mail on him? I do understand he would receive armor bonuses previously
Also when he plays crappy Fnatic and not pissed off Alliance

Nice effect on Pugna when he steals mana instead of HP
