Phoenix added to CM with no balance changes? You have a long way to go Kirby-Chan

Earth Spirit is an enigma and balance nightmare. Not sure how to deal with him barring a total rework.

Yeah I agree. He's still very strong in the right hands and in the early game he brings things to the table no other hero can, but nerf him a tad too much and he'll be bordering on useless. After hardly anything happening to him since 6.80 in January I'm expecting at least minor adjustments in 6.82, and unlike Phoenix giving him a little test drive in -cm wouldn't do too much damage.

Does any one play on MacOS in here?

I was going to while I was abroad. I have items bound to alt+qweasd, but muscle memory from my desktop keyboard meant i kept pressing cmd+q instead of alt+q on a macbook keyboard which closed the game. Ended up in bootcamp as a result. The OSX version bugged out on me frequently, in the time I spent with it ;(

Still say ES is nto as good as people make him out to be. He can be played well, he can succeed, you can say that about almost any hero.

At best he'll be a stage 2 pick.

Valve just shot themselves in the foot.

Spent thousands of $$$ on hats, merch and TI4 trip, yet this is how Valve treats its most loyal fanbase.

GabeN should publically apologize and release techies or I'm switching to LoL of legends


This man knows whats up. Agree with your whole post and want to add on the no communication part.

I spoke to the workshop artists at TI4 and asked whether they had any input on set prices and their thoughts on the sets-in-chest system. What I was told is that Valve does not communicate to the artists when their sets will be released or how much they would be priced at. That the creators preferred the old style of each set being sold separately and being priced according to the work on the set, but they can live with the current system as its way friendlier to the fanbase. Valve sometimes accepts sets but don't greenlight the extra effects and animations on certain sets, but allow them to others. This is probably done to keep Valve's own bullshit rarity tiers and arcana value intact, but why they allow them on some sets is beyond me.

Valve is failing to communicate with talent, fans and artists. This is one of the most well made games I've ever played, chock full of A+++ features and they are pretty much sitting on a goldmine, but they are taking the importance of communication for granted whereas other similar, less popular games have a good feedback loop with the community.

I think a big part of the problem is that instead of addressing things head on and limiting crazy talk, they end up shooting themselves in the foot by not having dedicated community outreach. Example being how they stripped out some of the custom animations on the sets released during the International. I don't remember ever seeing official word on why this couldn't be addressed down the road.

People losing their minds and desperately begging for a patch that will bring Techies and the A-Z challenge.

Delay it forever!

i just want 6.82 so we can start picking huskar, spiritbreaker, bounty hunter, lina, and ogre magi, best team composition ti6 quote me.

Also yeah people severely underestimate 2 heroes simply because they never see them: broodmama and earth spirit. If any of these two get moderate to major buffs, you can expect them to get completely dicked again in 6.83.

I'm having a nagging feeling that there's no plan for 6.82 to be a part of this patch. I certainly hope I'm wrong but I have a bad sense that this patch is gonna come out next week or whenever and it's only gonna be Techies and the stretch goals and everyone will actually just kill themselves.

Brood is already retardedly powerful, only she gets countered HARD by a bunch of common picks.

If a captain omits picking one of them however, a good Brood player can ball out of control ridiculously fast. I've had games with her where at 20-25 minutes I was towerdiving 3 people by myself because they had no good aoe to get rid of my spiderlings.

I don't know how to feel about the spider lady. On the one hand, forcing them to counterpick you and have someone on BM patrol at all times is great for your team, but it needs coordination to work. If your team can't do shit with the space you make then they end up 4v5. That's a pub problem not a pro problem though. The other thing is she seems kinda inflexible if you aren't having a good game, what with her requiring extended time to establish her territory on a lane.

I was envious of you Smash/MK8/Diablo/3DS players that had something to be excited for besides Dota.

But in 30 minutes, I'm getting an announcement of a sequel in one of my favorite franchises - Saints Row.

Do whatever you want Valve. I don't give a fuck anymore
