It is time for Wex Exort to reign.

I think she needs a nerf to her ultimate in some way, longer fade time possibly, or increase the mana cost again, shit's annoying.
Nerfing every other invis hero just to nerf one ability on Mirana isn't a solution.

Wex movement speed needs to be decreased or removed. Force invoker to use ghost walk and make actual spell choices early game, right now its way too easy to play 3 spell invoker and never die but still win team fights. Alternatively change it to regen mana, gives a side buff to exort invoker who struggles with mana regen early game.
It'd also be a nerf to Doom, DK and Furion. Fine by me!

Is the new compendium supposed to be blurry or is it a bug?
My biggest issue with Mirana is she has little to no gaps in her skill set. She has a nuke, she has a long range stun/nuke (situational but you don't have to hit all of them to win a team fight and you basically just need one hero to help set it up), she has an escape/chase and she has a great initiation/escape ultimate. She can also support, semi-carry, offlane, hard carry. Why not pick her every game? She just isn't very interesting and I think way too versatile.
Let it go and move on with your life?

He's gonna get nerfed for sure though.

She's bizzaro pudge
She becomes Pudge after she gets stuck in the trees and is forced to eat her mount.
Mirana is a beautiful flower of balance vs the retarded OP hell hole that is EMP invoker
My biggest issue is that EVERY SINGLE ONE of Invokers spells has 0 cast time, so theyre impossible to dodge unless its a 1.2k range tornado that you can see coming
I'd rather have OP cold snap/forge spirits than the baby mode that is EMP + Tornado

I have to admit...it's way more entertaining watching QE invoker play rather than QW..

Fuck that, you're not going to farm that in under 15 mins even under good conditions. Invoker is broken as shit and people who pick him are scumbag tier.

You could go even further, which is kind of creepy

Yellow Themed - Blue Themed
Uses head as icon - Uses mount as icon
Has to purchase mobility, but not stats - Has to purchase stats, not mobility

Which is what people are doing. Ultimately I don't mind heroes that feel "unbalanced" too much if they don't show up too often, but at this point the level of consistency with which I'm seeing Mirana is starting to get monotonous.

If you want to nerf
mirana just make it so her jump doesn't disjoint.

mirana nerf would be nice

I think icy may have buffed mirana a bit too much. Knock off like 4 starting int so she doesn't get off so many arrows early on.

Also the compendium for dream league is atrocious.
WOAH. Slow down there buddy. Her dulcet Scottish tones are like a trickle of syrup down my ear-holes.
It's like I'm playing through Brave and Merida is my ever present best friend. DON'T RUIN THIS FOR ME.
I don't even think it needed to be, when I looked at the back end I remember there being actual formatting options, Dreamleauge just used a ton of images. Plus a bug is causing the images to look blurry on a lot of resolutions.

Factual mistakes as well.
Half-arsed player bios.

I'm pretty sure those are supposed to be just jokes, and I found them amusing. Though something normal may have been more useful in the long run, I would like to know a bit more about the players. The jokes I'm likely not going to go back and read a second time.
People hate accents, especially those that they can't classify to a region.

That one is supposed to be a 'Capcom made castlevania' type joke.
its a really crummy joke

I'd rather see icefraud buff like the handful of heroes that need it rather than nerf someone aka plz gief antimage silencer's old passive.

So, was any hero as broken as Centaur when he first came to dota 2? 60 sec ult at every level and boasted like >60% winrate.
Heavy's Sandvich

Lycan?
Earth Spirit, but only at high levels of play
Pros were even insta locking him and then repicking so he was out the pool

Earth Spirit was broken, but his winrate was like sub 50% I think?
Centaur had over 60% because he was LITERALLY press R to win. Basically, people saw Centaur in a game and either they left the match or whined all game. The ult even used to take base damage into consideration.
Weird! I think centaur is fun as hell now... can't imagine what it was like back then.

You didn't live the dota hell. It was so broken that I think they changed the ult in 2-3 days after he made it into dota 2.
I can see Luna, Mirana, Invoker, AA getting some nerfs since they are so popular in competitive play now. The problem with Mirana is that her abilities are just plain good, even with buffs/nerfs. Even if youre feeding a lot a good arrow or Ulti can give your team a nice gank and win a teamfight, so youre useful even if you are doing bad or dont have enough gold. Maybe they will only increase the cooldown of her arrow and invisible spell. Oh, shes my fav hero now. A good arrow is just... joel.gif
