The vast majority of players who voted for Io don't even fucking play it. They're just doing it because of LOL MEMES.

It will be a waste of an arcana and bad for Valve because nobody is going to fucking buy this thing, and even if they did, they still won't play Io.

>>148083212
Storm is weird as hell, all they changed was one ability and he went from completely broken to unplayable. Now I think he's in a fine spot with the Bloodstone buffs, but I feel like BS is gonna get nerfed again, and if not, Timber certainly will.

>>148081985

Tinker is already physically and conceptually one of the worst heroes in the game.

>>148080846

Anything that makes Invoker shitheads sperg out is good.

>>148084016
I'd play Io if his stats weren't so garbage. He's too easy to nuke down, and in pubs you can't expect your team to put in a ton of effort to keep you alive.
Up until you get to Very High skill Io is borderline unplayable, and even in VHS he's only viable in specific lineups. He's too niche and too self destructive for your average game of dota.
I voted for the Io Arcana because Invoker has enoughs sets already.

The mana nerf to his Q was pretty huge too. Made it so it costs too much to spam it in creep waves and the changes to neutral camps made it so he can hardly farm as well.
All the little things added up are what made Storm useless. Not just one little change to his ult.

Any recommended build for Ogre Magi? I always end up building him in this build:

Basillius -> Arcane -> Aghs -> Meka -> Pipe -> Greaves -> depends on situation.

>>148086074
It means he's naturally intelligent and can go into STEM and make an easy killing. Unlike you, who works at Mcdonalds.

>>148086186
the only thing you NEED as ogre is aether lens and arcanes, after that its entirely situational. usually i go force staff after that

No reason, you already have gorrilon armor. You want soul ring to use with arcane boots (drop them before you use soul ring) to extend your mana pool quite a bit.

Literally how do we balance Omniknight?
Also as a note I had Aghs on courier.

But seriously, this guy is broken as hell even in VHS. Pro play is the only area he doesn't see play. And he did show up in healpush lineups.
Can you just tweak the numbers to balance him? I'm of the opinion you could.

Purification mana cost 50/90/130/170
Cooldown 15/14/13/12

Repel
Duration 7/8/9/10
Cooldown 15

Degen Aura
10/15/20/25% move slow
10/20/30/40 attack slow

Guardian Angle mana cost 150/250/350
Duration 4/6/8

Would any of these nerfs be excessive?
I don't think ALL should be implemented, but some certainly should. Purification is his one spell that's super good at higher ranks but comparatively useless at rank 1 or 2, so maybe make it at least mana efficient so you can choose for raw healing/damage or mana expenditure.
At least make his build something other that 4-1-0-1 or 3-1-1-1

new skill represents the sacrifice of his faith: omni heals a target similar to purification and the heal also gives an effect increasing all regeneration for a long duration.
when using this skill omni takes greatly increased damage for the same duration as the regeneration buff on the target.
repel target can cancel repel
lower str gain agi gain and int gain to nothing. omni is dedicated, not strong or smart

new skill is better than purification, but harder to use well, and it makes him pro viable because he now does a unique thing.

>>148090815
His stats are already mediocre as hell. The only thing even remotely decent in his growths is strength at 2.8, but he only starts with 22 strength. He also starts with 3 base armor so he walks into lane with 5, but he's not a stat heavy dude at all.

>>148091025
He has weaknesses, they're just not pronounced. Namely, his heavy reliance on mana.
Instead of making him shitty at everything except what he's good at, just make him worse at what he's bad at. Which is why I suggest increasing his cooldowns and mana cost.

>Which is why I suggest increasing his cooldowns and mana cost.

which makes him never be in the pro game, ever

when a hero is #1 winrate in pub forever and never picked in pro, the hero's basic design is broken. you can't fix him without fixing his basic design.

in any engagement of players who aren't playing as 5 and communicating as a team, a hero with the ability to heal, nuke, slow, and grant magic immunity can simply do too much to turn the tide.

add guardian angel to that and the design is laughable.

it has nothing to do with bracket, people just don't do that anymore. the awareness level of the average dota player changed dramatically over the past 18 months or so

also, ever since memeback, pudge just isn't the same hero. it used to be that seeing a 6-0 pudge early in the game meant the game was over, and that's what drove a lot of picks.

If you are playing against smart people they will start trying to focus you down in teamfights. I usually go soul ring/tranquils (his mana costs are pretty low so it should do but arcanes are obviously needed if no one else can get them and to prepare mek and greaves later) and then cheap-ish utility items. Glimmer/forcestaff/euls are all good. Get the bare minimum items to survive and let the other greedier support get his stuff, you don't really need much, only levels. If you meant starting as in the very first, just wards/courier/tango/clarity or two and a smoke.

As for the other question, I usually try and gank safelane early on (after say, two mid ganks to get the enemy supports on-edge). Try and get the mid/offlaner to smoke with you and the other support when the first towers start going down and get important pickoffs. Place unconventional wards in the jungle to help you with this, not the usual hilltop-shit. Oh and people are usually careless with the courier. Depending on the mid, you can usually get a courier pickoff between 2-3 min just by smoking behind the enemy t1.

explain yourself.
you arent going to farm those imaginary stacks.

I just realized that lifesteal is more effective the more damage reduction you have, so why isn't it good on spectre?

Is her lifesteal-able damage so shitty that the regen from vanguard is more efficient than lifesteal? Am I misunderstanding the hero? Because I thought the point of dispersion was that spectre can turn survivability into damage.

>Because I thought the point of dispersion was that spectre can turn survivability into damage.

yes the point of the hero is her passive which relies on people hitting her, not her ability to hit other heroes :^^)

>>148102172
HP is more effective the more damage reduction you have
lifesteal is more effective the more HP your opponents have and less dps they have and more dps you have

lifesteal is shit on spectre because she has shit dps. Vanguard is also shit on spectre. Helm of the dominator is vastly better but the lifesteal is only a minor consideration, its bought for its ability to farm via the active.

you'd get less HP regen from the lifesteal on hotd and vlads combined than you'd get from just hotd dominating a troll priest and shift queuing heal on yourself 1000 times, +18 hp/s regen

No, just the support's.
I figure you either have a position 5 that can throw a 1-2k shield on their carry, or a position 3 that buys a fuckton of mana items and during a fight pops a 4-5k strength shield on their carry if they get low. With the downside being they can't cast anything else afterwards unless they pop a stick, arcanes, ggreaves, etc, or just have like 20 bloodstone charges but at that point I think victory would be moot.

That said, the damage is reduced before resistances, so it turns all incoming damage essentially into pure damage to the shield. So it's not really that much for very late game, like 1 second of focus is 4k damage late, if not more.

i think this was maybe my favorite dota 2 moment

this nigga paused the game so he could abandon before a creep landed the last hit

Strawman. Nobody wants to discuss anime, just Dota 2 art draw like anime, or just posting pictures of anime with relevant text. As this is a message board based on the premise of Asian stuff, it's cool.

hey! it's that person who thinks posting this bothers me or something lol

Do you want Abyssal Underlord?
If yes, do you want a rework, or for him to appear as he was in DotA?

>Defending the arcanas
You know, I actually want Io to win so Valve gets fucked, has to think an arcana for him and barely anyone buys it. Fuck 30€ cosmetics.

>>148108415
he was reworked. hero would be useless/pointless in dota as it is

>hey i'm really good at pushing the lane in lane phase so i can not get exp while i solo offlane
>give me mid so i can teleport us all to our death slightly faster

i mean the hero just does nothing really. passive was removed entirely i imagine.

I haven't heard anything about him being reworked, or even really in development.

for every 1 black killed by a policeman 4000 blacks are killed by blacks anon

i could scarcely calculate how many hooks have not hit me in my dota career. guess i wasn't paying attention?

seriously though we're just posting memes this thread is not about me ok

>>148108746
i'm not sure why you think you'd have heard anything, do you work at valve? you will not hear anything. but the hero is reworked, he could not work in the game as he is now. useless.

im telling you 99% that the passive is gone or extensively reworked. trust in psg. psg knows game design

what would he get to replace it is the question

>>148108540
They have to design it. Also

the arcanas are worth shit to the community

>>148108908
ok wow an io with more particles that changes color based on the hero hes tethering and makes their weapons have trails during overcharge

thatll be 15.99. also debuting: the arcana of whatever the second place hero in the vote was. we fucked over valve so hard! ha ha! now to buy that io arcana for 16 bucks...

>>148108916
don't rename my webms that's like my favorite one. peep this webm tho >>148081683

I wish dota was like this more often; doing unexpected shit and making lowbie ass players have a brainfart

>dang, 296 gold, you got me
>i wonder if it was worth the +150 gold +600 to team and 1000 exp you lost vs my mid and safe lane

I then respawned and did it again and alchemist chased me again. OD then dove the tower instead of just getting level 3 vs level 1 alchemist. retard. people don't get it unless you micromanage them

Post Gustav pic, you know that one.
