Yep. That's a dick.
Dendi is not subbing, it's NaVi with three subs.
I didn't mind: one was the hero's ability, the other the trap's ability.

Which do the same thing. Having different cast points was just plain dumb.
One was a punishment for being lazy.

BH's winrate is gonna skyrocket with a Deso instead of a Battle Fury in his recommended items.
Not really. I think the real reason just to give players the option. I'm sure I will probably still click my traps manually, it's just the way I prefer it, but I totally understand wanting it as the sub-ability.
A choice between being efficient and inefficient?
They do but not until later. It's rarely that useful at level 6 unless you are seizing a tower. It is generally more worth your while to take a point in another one of her skills instead at 6

It wasn't even in the description I think, I had no clue there was no cast point when activating them manually.
So that is one thing.
Besides that it is about the most boring way to increase a skill ceiling.

Led a 4vs5 team to victory...
MMR -50
I don't understand ELO.

I was just kidding with the initial post anyway, i don't really care either way.

No idea.
I just take it I didn't perform as well as I thought I did.

That HP nerf is really significant. Just look at how Alch losing his HP bonus changed him completely (from 90% carry to 100% support), and Alch was compensated fairly significantly in other ways (mass hp regen). I can't count how many times the bonus HP saved me from split push ganks and also just straight teamfighting/man-fighting as lycan is so much riskier now. Getting a free 300 bonus hp as a mini-heart also allowed you to build greedy (necro/ac/deso) and gave you a small advantage in the late game. This nerf basically solidifies Lycan as an early to mid-game carry. You really don't want to go late where you'll get easily outcarried and where supports have force staves/ghost scepters out the ass to kite your 18s of being useful.
Sure, the nerf doesn't significantly change the way the hero is played, but that's what a good nerf does. Lower the hero's power without damaging their identity. This particular nerf is bigger than most people realize though, and the nerf to necronomicon might as well be listed under Lycan. Any nerf to that item is a nerf to the hero in the same way nerfing Tiny Aghs would be a straight nerf to Tiny.

No, I think I remember reading that you lose MMR no matter what when one of your teammates abandons.

....that's pretty unfair, considering that we are not even in a party.
what a dumb throw by era
they had the early game and loda was nowhere near his radiance, but then era made a dumb decision trying to kill loda with the invis rune... i don't know what he was hoping to achieve since he had the tree heal plus he was under his own tier 1 tower and might have had song up as well

I don't think you're supposed to lose mmr when someone not in your party abandons, so I doubt that explains it.
Anyone else suspect that this patch was part of a larger patch that they split up in order to release 6.81 earlier? I only say this because of how complete Oracle is (even Techies look kind of close too).
Also, I disagree with the -1 armor being a nerf to support Wraith King. It means he dies quicker at the start of fights to get his insane slow off.
edit: Rod of Atos on Centaur? Might be fun.

Looks like bunny's ears ya pervert.
I'm still trying to keep some hope that it's still to be announced before the patch next week. 3 months only for a balance + bugfix.... and I thought I was keeping realistic ( if not pessimistic ) expectation when thinking of a 1 hero update ( Oracle, because of how stupid Valve can be ) after all that time.
And the result could still pretty much be
It's time to announce Left 4 dead 3, so that we finaly know what half of the dota 2 dev have been doing for the past 9-11 month.

I felt like IF left some of the more radical balance changes out with TI qualifiers in a couple weeks, so the meta wouldn't get all fucked up right before TI4. Maybe we'll get a huge patch with at the very least Oracle and some bigger balance changes after TI4.

This Alliance lineup might be the worst teamfight lineup I've seen in a while. Pure splitpush lineup.
What the hell is even the point of Wisp on this team?
