Holy shit at the Quelling Blade change. Free Moraxus projectile for everyone. o_O

Too bad it destroys keeper of the forest quite badly! Otherwise I like it, it's still a clunky enough animation with a long enough cooldown that it doesn't feel overpowered at all. Hatchet might be a useful pickup for non-bloodhunters now, even if you were superb at last hitting!

Hopefully they rework him as I think he's the worst designed hero imported from Dota.

The reappearance of evil mint.

Nice update.

Oh yeah!

Logger's Hatchet

OMG.

Fayde reworks looks good on paper.

Jeraziah

Even his DotA incarnation got overhauled last patch. I like KotF, but he certainly has an identity crisis. He hits like a truck and would appear to be a carry, but nearly all his skills tie to a support role. (And a pretty crappy one at that)

So basically I'm now buying a hatchet on every hero ever. Nice. Slither nerf was so necessary but so upsetting. Thus ends the super stomp slither days and the godly laning reign of toxicity.

Yeah..that hatchet just...really may need it for every hero. You could almost guarantee last hit on several creeps in the laning phase. Your attack, then quickly use the hatchet.

Also makeup for wedding in one hr. And astro if ur reading this sorry for not messaging>< got home at 11pm =_=

We've been investigating Keeper reworks since I was hired (almost exactly a year ago). We've got a rework set up in our private client that is just about ready for release, finally.

In duplicate hero games, having 2 competent Martyrs on your team makes it almost impossible for your opponents to pick off teammates and win during the mid and late game.

I really have no idea what direction S2 is trying to take the game in with those changes. My only guess is that they want to see an increase in the play of melee carries, and some of it looks like they want to make it more of a ricer game.

I feel like the hb nerf came out of nowhere and the bubbles thing is terrible, it destroys the synergy with portkey that made it such a good item on him. .25s on level one is a total joke.

You can still do it with shellshurf, it just takes more skill now. PK, silence + ult. Shell surf and take cover and then teleport using the shell surf.

And wasn't Hellbringer always banned in most competitive games.

Yeah but hes banned more for his ult.

And yeah, that's the initiation utilization of pkey, but it's the running away from things right next to you for free thats gone.

shit man watching the DRD stream. When both daggius and raven are talking it's fuckin funny. Also, raven rebinds hotkeys for every hero every game, and clicks items. What the shit. Even daggi doesn't know why he does it.

I've been out of the HoN loop for quite awhile, and I was thinking about picking it back up.

Anyway, just dropping by to say congratulations to Meeru. Just checked out the pics on the last page, looks like you're having a great time and everything. I personally would love to head to Korea some time - I'm jealous. Hope I see you, and everyone else, around soon. Good luck with everything, Meeru!

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
I'm watching GosuCup finals between MSi and PhB and I don't recognize this game they're playing. I named it Roamers of Newerth.

Not saying it's not fun to watch, but it's so different from 1600s play.

Fun fun. Better than my main account!
