I miss the time when games were just complete at some point.
There wasn't a constant pressure for "change" or to "evolve". Patches were issued but they didn't change core game mechanics 5 years after launch to please 15 year olds.

I blame Americans and their ADD and sugar fried brain.

>>162472635
I think its more along the lines that the talents seem to be instrinsic to heroes, so you would assume the cooldown reduction only works for the hero abilities on not their items as well... i dont know to be honest i thought it was obvious as well, same reason why spell amplification works on items.

You can't win a lane with techies still either so it's basically a lost lane whereever you put him, and he is terrible at offlaning without a reliable suicide

it's a major nerf, his gimmick of making the entire other team mentally freak out is dead. Now he's a weak subpar hero that leeches for the entire laning phase to do damage in teamfights where you are already behind from being worthless in lane

I was really hyped for this patch. I mean really, really hyped. I've been playing dota on and off for years. And I'm not talking 5 years like some of you chumps. I started playing before Icefrog was in charge of development. And I was extremely hyped for this patch. Looking back at it now, that was a little silly of me because I'm autistic. I don't like change. I can't handle change. I hate change. Fuck dota. Fuck valve. Fuck icefrog. Go fuck yourselves. I'm out.

Easier in things that shouldn't really have been hard in the first place, such as all the quality of life updates like seeing Morphling's Morph meter, seeing your mana cost for items and spells easily, easy courier control, and so on.

Harder in how the game plays because the core of the game is still there, and now has Talents to take into account.

Alot of these talents are shit, especially level 10 ones. Many of them obvious choices, like Sniper.

+15 attack speed, or +4 mana regen.

The choice is obvious in like 99% of scenarios. Here's Slardars level 10 talent choice:

6 HP regeneration, or 175 extra mana

once again, why would slardar need an extra 175 mana?

i'm slowly but surely going through alot of these talent choices but like I said before alot of them seem like obvious choices.

But you have boots in backpack, and can swap in easy. Versus a support needing to swap it to you, or its on courier

You can also put TP scrolls in the backpack, freeing item slots. Same for bottle and shit when bottle isn't in use. Swap in and out stat items for consumables

Am I the only one who thinks the talents are absolutely useless? These little stats don't mean anything at 10, 15, 20. The only thing that looks really nice is the 25 ones and that will only be avaible to carries once every 10 games when the game goes to 60 mins

The old HUD looked good and ~lack of map vision~ (wait I'm sorry, ~unnecessary screen footprint~) has never been an issue for anyone decent at the game.

The new HUD has shit like UI elements spilling out into the game part of the screen.

When it comes down to it, I wouldn't care about it if using the old HUD was an option, but we all know it isn't.

bounty runes were included at first so that it instantly creates a teamfight at 0:00, and along with spawning with power up runes made the lame less RNG focuesed since you still get a bonus even if you didn't get the rune

now excuse me if i'm wrong but it seems like thats all completely out
plus the RNG got worse since if you get a haste you can easily steal 2 bounty runes from the enemy team

So first of all just so everyone knows you can use salve, bottle, and urn under towers if that wasn't completely clear. You can bm now by literally healing up under their tower.
Also a few things about our new friend.

>His attack range is high as FUCK for a melee hero.
>His str gain is good, his agi gain is great, his int gain is potato.
>Extend Staff applies all attack modifiers like deso or maelstrom, but also will apply craggy on you if you hit tiny.
>Extend staff also counts towards your passive proc because of above, and also applies it as bonus damage (counts completely towards crit).
>Tree jump is not disabled by turrets. ONLY heroes or rosh.
>Tree jump does not provide good chasing mobility, but gives flying vision.
>Tree jump is FREE to use, only the slam costs mana and you can just walk off trees instead.
>You can channel spells on top of trees, like tp scroll (and considering there's an animation for it it's probably intended)
>You can also cast any spell on top of trees, not just limited to your jump slam maneuver, but those leave you at where you would be if you rightclicked off of it, but that has a cooldown.
>Passive hits AFTER proc are charge based, you can only have four attacks but they do not expire at all, but you can only charge off of heroes.
>Passive at max rank gives +800 damage in all four hits, another 200 if Extend Staff is used for one of them because of the crit.
>You can oneshot waves with passive + Staff when your passive is fully leveled. Don't even need the crit trait.
>Your clones hit as hard as you do and both you and them get a steroid of nearly 100 damage at max level BUT you don't get passive stacks off of your clones. Also no UAM's expectedly.
Basically he's a pain in the ass to deal with and if he gets his items prepare you fucking anus.

Essentially they made him even better, his Jungling is improved and now he can farm a vlads and take rosh under 10 mins again, if not he can pick up a medallion + blightstone and just melt rosh by himself, Ideally rosh is done at night.

I have no clue, but I feel like the game is actually so much harder at higher skill levels.
>>
>>162473227
Harder overall.

The talent tree makes itemization and skill builds way more complicated for a lot of heroes (although some are obvious choices). Mainly the problem is having to REMEMBER who has what.

If you try and gank some hero that skilled +10 armor you need to know what to expect and timings.

The only thing that looks easier so far is that clarities / salves / bottle doesn't get broken by creeps.

by 40 minutes the 5 seconds is more than enough to kill any hero unless you're seriously behind and have no teamplay. the 40 damage PER DUEL on top of that is insane. much bigger than 12 seconds off the cooldown. it's permanent physical right click damage, not just damage you get during a duel.

Mana regen, health, dmg and armor. You never have to back and can easily do ancients without taking being too low hp.

They added +2 ancients camps 1 extra for both sides. So you will be farming ancients.
>>
What supports are OP now?
>>
>>162482123

Visage is absurd, and treant seems super annoying. Generally though supports got nerfed because they will rarely get to lvl 25. CK might be a viable pos 3-4 though

I left a year or two back, when they reworked Riki, Void and one or two others completely. I had just kind of grown fed up with Dota 2 with the amount of time I would invest and the little enjoyment I actually received.

Thought I'd drop in and see how you guys are doing, hope you're enjoying the game and stuff. Glad I left, but I don't want to spite you guys. Have fun.

Didn't you listen to bulldonger explaining how le epic 6 treants was?
>>
when does the patch goes live?
is there a countdown somewhere?
>>
>>162482595
Except he's right. Every hero lost a bunch of + stats in the form of leveling up attributes, which hurts supports much more then carries because they don't get as much from items.
>>
>>162476290
WHATS THE POINT THOUGH?

Enemy sees it was Denied or picked up so obviously if they go in and see one laying on the floors its going to be you.

the only time its useful is if the enemy is trying to snatch and mimic just as Rosh dies and they misclick you for it.
>>
this patch would be good if we didn't have a league ui with all the changes

can't see my goddamn items or hp
>>
>>162477685
can you still suicide? the skill takes 50% of max HP so can i deny if i am lower?

>Radiant Creep Kid would probably be related to NP
>mfw this kid becomes a fucking NP + Rooftrellen combination

>The Treant Prophet
>Passive 1st: Gets movement/attack speed/attack damage/health bonus for each nearby Radiant creep
>Active 2nd: Can control any creep (global range) and TP to it
>Active 3rd: Releases a 2s channeled Fade Bolt that increases in damage proportional to the nearby creeps between you and the enemy
>Active 4th: Transforms you and every creep into Mega form; grants additional armor/health/damage/attack speed

this talent tree shit is fucking retarded...

most shitters barely know how to level properly already, jesus god damn. and that is a talent tree in a sense. some venos go ward build, so go gale... this is fucking stupid and going to be a nightmare to balance. fuck this shit.
>>
>>162478369
hey retard, they lowered the amount of EXP needed and increased gains, shut the fuck up already.
>>
>WUKONG THIS OP
