I wonder what the combined win% is for Batrider + Lycan. How the hell would you ever let these two slip?

A lot of the nerfs just don't matter to pro players, a good Batrider doesn't care about the base damage nerf or the Lasso mana increase because they're too good at utilizing the napalm stacks to farm and managing their mana. In the end he has an ultimate that goes through BKB and disables and moves any hero you want for several seconds while your team wails on them. I'm not sure how you balance him without neutering him entirely and taking him out of the meta.
Maybe an increased cd on Lasso but I don't see it having an effect.

Maybe Lasso automatically grabs the nearest hero in a 400 AOE or something weird like that? Makes him still good for pickoffs, but hurts his initiation ability?
is this the day teams stop over-valuing lycan?
He's getting shat on left and right by straight man teams that he simply can't deal with anymore because of the HP nerf. Don't even think he's first pick material anymore unless it's dire and the enemy is dumb, he's back to (or should be eventually) surprise second round pick IMO.

In the words of LD, Liquid are doing it!
Just started playing last week. Finally finished the training missions including public games.
First few games were good then I decided to check all the matchmaking options and was put into a captains draft game.
highlights include:
1. Being called the N-word.
2. Being told to uninstall DOTA
3. Being called a noob
4. We still won the game
Evidently I need to go to "all pick" and "limited heroes" for now.

Thanks, haven't seen #nojoke Liquid yet.

Avoid limited heroes mode. Do play AP and make liberal use of the mute button. Have fun
