Tinker nerf is insane.

Fucking hammer of god brought down on him

 

[Acti]

What do you guy think about the way Public Ranked picks work?

 

[Drkirby]

Are Eyes In The Forest still permanent until the tree is destroyed? If so, rushing scepter treant all game every game.

 

[SteveWinwood]

[Technosteve]

Holy shit Tree got his fucking eyes back!

[Haly]

PL is literally 4-gate Zealots.

 

[Smithy C]

Can you bottle the new rune and refill your bottle? If so, bottle crowing now pointless?

Also, Ogre Magi buffs! It's all ogre!

 

[Imp the Dimp]

Tinker nerf is insane.

He's worse now than he's ever been including the past years when he was entirely unchanged while not being a hot pick in the pro scene until recently.

I don't like that nerf tbh.

 

[t0rment]

holy shit, this changes everything

riki is gonna even more annoying right now in pubs.

 

[Sibylus]

Ho lee shikkus

Brood now literally a creep tumor

no diretide this year, but a huge update early next year http://blog.dota2.com/2014/09/the-rekindling-soul-update/

One more thing: we on the Dota 2 team have a number of updates in the works right now that we’re really excited about, some for the rest of this year, and a big update for early next year. But we’re pretty sure we won’t be able to make enough progress on the larger update if we put it down to work on Diretide – so we’ve decided that we’re not going to ship a Diretide event this year. We know that last year we weren’t clear enough in our communication about this, so this year we wanted to be up front about it early. Next year will bring monumental changes to Dota 2, and we’re confident that when you’ve seen what we’ve been working on, you’ll agree it was worth it.

Maybe I am missing something, but it doesn't seem that big to me.

-Can't rely on ancients to catch up, that's fine, you have the lane and jungle.
-Eblade projectile, so? Just means more sheep Dagon now

 

[Satch]

is there not a link of the receipts

edit: nvm like 4 pages back rip

 

[Drkirby]

I wonder if next patch they will add back in selling BKB, since you can no longer rebuy one to replenish its cool down.

I like how Bloodstone is made from Soulring now.

Crimson Guard feels underwhelming.

he is good at doto 2

Lina
Light Strike Array cast range increased from 600 to 625
Light Strike Array stun duration increased from 1.6/1.7/1.8/1.9 to 1.6/1.8/2/2.2

HNGGGGGGGGG

oh god ns night lasts forever, fuck me

 

[snack]

Wraith King didn't get buffed or nerfed. I LIKE IT.

 

[Divvy]

-Can't rely on ancients to catch up, that's fine, you have the lane and jungle.
-Eblade projectile, so? Just means more sheep Dagon now

Dagon mana cost increased at max levels, almost doubled.

Also BKB completely counters him as March won't damage through it anymore.

Also if you take the jungle or lane to catch up, the rest of your team will lose out on farm

no diretide this year, but a huge update early next year http://blog.dota2.com/2014/09/the-rekindling-soul-update/

This patch is already holyshit monumental. I can't imagine what next year's is going to be

 

[Holden]

yes he did...?

 

[EmptyCanO'wupass]

https://twitter.com/aegies/status/514539437074558976

What? If anything Chaos Knight needs more significant buffs.

 

[Drkirby]

Wraith King didn't get buffed or nerfed. I LIKE IT.

Yes he did, his ult cost more mana now.

 

[snack]

yes he did...?

Ok. Reincarnation mana cost increased from 140 to 160.

20 mana. That isn't tooooooo bad. Look at tinker. Now that is a NERF.

BABY NERFED I GET IT

harpo hew dis man?

 

[Smithy C]

https://twitter.com/aegies/status/514539437074558976

Is he sarcastically trying to say that Chaos Knight didn't need a buff? Don't think I've seen a Chaos Knight be useful in tourney or pub games since the days of wisp ck strats.

 

[Glass Shark]

WELP. I guess Destiny is going on the shelf for a while.

This seems BIG.

 

[Pratfall]

What? If anything Chaos Knight needs more significant buffs.

the goose is awful at dota

wow, razor is dead, that phoenix aghs is awesome OMG THIS PATCH

You say that like he doesn't already take farm from his team.

Also he has easy transition to bloodstone now.

 

[SteveWinwood]

this is so awesome

night stalker is going to wreck faces even moreso

https://twitter.com/aegies/status/514539437074558976

plz never link this twitter account again

 

[Finalow]

also, cancer lancer is back?

https://twitter.com/aegies/status/514539437074558976

please stop linking his account, he doesn't even deserve the clicks.

 

[bbd23]

new shadow fiend animations

 

[Snowdrift]

These support buffs <3.

 

[elyetis]

Holy shit that's quite the balance patch.

Techies reduced cooldown mean it will be easy to set up the first blood before the first creep wave, me happy.
Tinker not nerfed enough.
I don't get how PL now work.
I will play treant again, and rush agha every day.
LC in captain mod, but nerfed to the ground.
Medusa buffed in the same patch the nerf push strate ? Me gusta, I should play her again.
I don't know if I should be happy about sniper change.

 

[Technosteve]

Rushing aghs jungling chen all games, every game. That can't be good =/

how fast can I jungle and get 4K gold? at 300 gpm in a real good game would be 13 minutes and 20 seconds. Let's say at 16 minutes you are at level 16 and have level 2 ulti that's two ancients.

 

[Divvy]

So is Bloodseeker a support now?

Bloodrage -> 40% damage buff on your allies spells. AA, Zeus, Furion, Sniper, OD etc.. Ult

Bloodright -> AoE silence and nuke

Thirst -> Truesight for days, racecar support running around being dracula

Rupture -> kind of shitty, but stops your target from moving I guess?

As a part of a roaming support duo, it could be pretty potent.

Still shitty melee though

 

[1.09]

i'll see you guys in a week.

 

[Finalow]

huge nerf for dark seer's vacuum, damn

 

[kasane]

BOUNTY RUNE WAT
