Yes. From what I've seen so far, you need to be on point with the timing though, otherwise Phoenix will just outpace a projectile stun long enough to get some distance.
I didn't know what Dreams just pointed out when I tried him so I had a fun moment where a Sven stun followed me around in a loop, arcing gracefully through the sky.
I missed Icarus so much
They did an awesome job on the model and spells.
It's gonna be a feed fest tho when the patch gets released.. TB + Icarus? Trenchmode activated..
phoenix is like, ashes of alar pretty
AM's new ult
So is it a straight up AoE or is it like Frost Blast?
Frost Blast. It remains the exact same as before except that the radius is noticeably bigger now and it has an AOE targeting cursor.
Drow's new silence might be the best non-item, non-ultimate silence in the game.
Flank the enemy and silence them into your team. Teamfight won. Great with Vacuum.
I might be exaggerating a bit. Need more experienced opinions. I feel like this should bump her up a couple of spaces in the tier list.
How do you target the hero with the most missing mana? Does it target them automatically?

Its better since the area got buffed. Showing the aoe circle made it more surprisingly big but its only +100 buff.
It works like Lich's Frost Blast.
It works exactly like it did before by clicking on a hero. The ability already had an AOE before, they just added an indicator to make it more clear what happens.
Yeah but they buffed the radius of the AOE now. Could be a really potent nuke mid to late game if timed well.

Not double hell!
This is the best thing ever.
You start with quas-invoke-quas-wex-quas, then you can either get another point in quas and start maxing wex. You can either get exort after maxing wex or whenever you feel you need defeaning blast.
Just read Terrorblades lore
Hes so evil that the other demons in hell sent him to hell 2.0, were he looked into a mirror, saw that he was a badass, and then became more badass, and then showed how badass he is by breaking the mirror and escaping both hell and hell 2.0
wtf Valve
Get your shit together
Blizzard secretly writing for Valve confirmed.
Sorry, but no. TB's lore is the most amazing shit you can read outside of a Warhammer 40k book.
So far my skill order with terrorblade has been Reflection>Metamorphosis>Conjure image
Max Metamorphosis first, then Conjure image.
Also skipped his ult at lvl 6 due to the mana cost and cd.
First point in reflection is just for the slow, for the damage it does to be relevant at all your enemies need to be pretty strong, which is not something you want to capitalize on. Also the range puts you at risk early on, which is dangerous for a guy with a lack of escapes.
80 dmg is too good to pass up and it counts towards the damage on your illusions, think of metamorphosis as if it was Death prophet's ult. It melts towers with conjure images and makes you a beast in teamfights.
Dunno about items though. Power treads seems good on him, wraith band too.
edit:
Oh man, I want that Death prophet set so bad, wonder how much it costs

Given that the build starts with so many points in quas, would an early point in exort to unlock Ice Wall be ideal? I've looked around and it seems some people prefer to get just two points in quas before maxing wex since they view EMP (especially after 6.80 buffs) to be the key skill of the QW Invoker.

This sounds amazing. I can't wait for it to show up on Fails of the Week

Oh god, why do I feel like I won't be able to buy the Earth Spirit set outright and have to go through some crafting shenanigans.
That would be stupid, I'd really hate that a lot.

I definitely read somewhere that it's for sale for nine bucks.
Where is the based luna set?
it doesn't mention it anywhere, where as it is on the front page of page 3.

Wonder where TB sits in the demon power hierarchy. Is he a krillin, a piccolo, or a goku?
Oh god that Ember set looks amazing.
Oh god so does that Lina set.
Legion's dragon banners... OH GOD.
I love the aesthetic for this update, everything looks amazing. This is way better than "Christmas trees on everything!" that you see in a lot of theme updates. I wish it wasn't the year of the horse and instead a much cooler animal. Lemme see what's next year...goat. Dammit.

You can buy it OR you can craft it! Valve breaking the mold!
150 actually. It's a 50% increase, that's a significant buff.
Quas Wex is all I play, so this patch is pretty great. Buffing my Invoker while nerfing the ones I usually play against. Skill build is easy, start with Q, then Invoke, then max Wex getting Invoke when you can, Quas when you can't level Wex or Invoke. Get Exort around 13 or 14.
