They shouldn't have given him the nerf that they did, to be honest. There are so many ways to counterplay the hero, and now he doesn't even have the early kill potential to compensate for that.

The worst thing about nerfs in dota is knowing that they can NEVER be reverted because of arcane icefrog policies. If a hero becomes shit, they will never be fixed by undoing what made them shit.

Not picking a hero that counters him like viper, pudge, prophet, or storm, is about as reasonable as not picking any aoe against brood. You're fucking retarded.

Honestly, Visage was pretty badly overbuffed. They improved him in several ways that we didn't even ask for, then took away the one thing that we did, so now he's even worse than before because he encourages shitter play.

MK was pretty awful, though, retards are just mad that their MMR generator was taken away.

because the only way to nerf a hero is to nerf him or his items

slark doesn't get nerfed and none of his items are ever touched only buffed. icefrog usually nerfs an hero instead of nerfing the item that made them insane

>>163401227
The problem is that Icefrog doesn't even nerf Slark's problematic skills. He nerfs shit like Slark's strength gain by 0.1 or his pounce damage by 20, but he never touches Slark's retarded 3.5 second CC at level one or his stupid fucking Dark Pact that works like a 2.5 second BKB on a 6 second cooldown. So then Icefrog increases global exp/gold gain and Slark can just buy more items or get more levels to make up for the nerfs that Icefrog gave him to his stats, and SUDDENLY SURPRISE SURPRISE SLARK IS OP AGAIN oh no, who could have foreseen that the same hero with less base stats but more levels/items would be as OP as the same hero with more base stats but less items/levels?

>play faceless void
>can't do shit i see the pros do
:(

>>163402127
They are shit

but you get 4 armor, 15 movespeed, respawn, and battery assault

>>163402127
Picking mana pretty much means you can ditch arcane boots and just get a sage/void stone to recover mana or just forgo mana regen altogether because you only really need to do is your combo with occasional rocket flares.

Movement speed helps chase with Battery Assault but damage is good if you have phase boots because you're rich somehow.

Magic resistance 9/10.

I think health is better honestly because by the time you're 25 you're likely winning and your carry can kill the enemy instead. You only rely on the first set of Battery Assault anyways right.

>>163402127
the hero has high issues with getting any farm so getting basically a free item from exp is great

tell me the difference?
Dota2 have 108 heroes compare to Overwatch's 20+?

Ow pickrate
10% of hero pool = 90% pickrate
40% = 70% pckrate
50%(10 total heroes) = 1%pickrate

meanwhile in dota
all you see is SD Luna Batrider Ogre Drow Alchemist Slardar SK Timber Jug everygame that's almost 10% of the hero pool

40+ heroes were picked only 8x out of 300+ games! not different than Mercy's pickrate

you can't compare a game with 20 heres to a game with 100. The picrate distribution may be the same, but every game of Dota is different. In OW all the difference you see is if one DPS tank wants to play a situational DPS like Genji or Tracer. Otherwise every game of OW is the exact same at the pro level

In OW you can pick 6 heroes a team, two teams. 12 picks. You can even SWAP heroes.

19 heroes in the game.

People literally stack the teams with certain heroes - notice these are USAGE rates.

Dota 2's pick rate is more like pic related with most heroes being picked in the 10% bracket - which is rational when you have 112 heroes and 10 slots which should average a 9% pick rate in an ideal world.

It's not the same I have to move my whole hand to reach the ctrl key and I don't have the option to think if I want to cancel it or not like before. It's just worse in every way, there is no way to defend this. The shop is also worse in every way. I'm not even one of those guys crying about shrines and whatever but removing functionality and making the game worse so you have to learn new habits is just annoying.

What next, only numbers can be used for items? "Gotta lose those old habits" Nah, I just don't care anymore, it was fun while it lasted.

Is it just me or is the bear super weak now? It used to have the health advantage to carry it though to mid game but now with everyone leveling up so fast they catch up to the bear in no time flat, and then it's just a stun or two and it explodes.

The Disarmer (STRENGTH, MELEE)

Q: Ghost strike - The disarmer sends out a wave of ghastly energy until it hits the aoe target (Travels and then explodes like tusk's ice shards). Any enemies caught in it take 200 initial damage then get a debuff so they take 50% extra damage than normal. The extra 50% is delayed damage and comes gradually (think kunkka's rum). The delay damage is non-lethal.
CD: 30/26/20/14, Mana: 140, Cast Range: As big as ice shards' i guess

W: Shield-Strike - The disarmer Bashes the enemy with his mighty shield, Dealing 190% critical damage with a 300 radius cleave and bashing the main target for 0.8/1.2/2/2.5 seconds.
CD: 12, Mana: 70/60/50/40 Cast Range: Same as Dragon Tail

E:Steel armor (Passive) - When an enemy attacks you they have a 10/20/30% chance of being disarmed (ranged), 5/10/15% (melee) for 2 seconds.

R: Take Weapon - The Disarmer literally takes the enemy hero's weapon and uses it for himself. The Disarmer's has all the attack speed and damage the target enemy hero had, and the target is disabled for the ultimate duration. Cannot be dispelled.

CD: 80 seconds, Mana: 100/150/250, Duration: 3 sec/7 sec/ 9 sec (Aghs: 13 second duration), Cast Range: Small like batrider's lasso

I've always wanted to be Tresdin's squire. I always enjoy fantasizing about entering the fountain with her after a long battle and slowly removing her armor, starting at the helmet and making my way down to her boots. The embarrassment I feel doing this in front of other female heroes only adds to the allure of the situation. She sits down on a stool and commands me to kneel down and remove her boots one at a time. "Is that a boner?" Rylai says. Akasha licks her lips, Rylai giggles, and Shendelzare glares at me. I try to cover it up out of embarrassment, but Tresdin kicks my hands away. "You haven't finished yet." I don't understand because I had already removed her armor, but after she gives me a look I realize that she wants me to remove her shoes as well. I take off her shoes and reveal her gorgeous feet, surprisingly soft despite her being a strong warrior, and extremely sweaty. "Lick the sweat off my feet, squire," she commands me. I hesitate for a moment and look over to the other girls. They all start giggling at me and whispering. Then I feel Tresdin's foot forced into my mouth with the other one covering my nose. The smell and taste of her sweaty feet causes my raging boner to grow even more. "Alright, squire, stand up and remove your clothes." Although embarrassed, I take all my clothes off. Suddenly I feel my position swapped with that of Shendelzare. Now I'm lying beneath Akasha and Rylai, who had both taken their boots off, and were pressing their feet against my member. "No," Tresdin said, "He's mine." She runs over and gets on top of me. It's only now that I realize that she's holding Aghanim's Scepter, and I understand that nobody will be able to interfere with us. Her technique gets more and more intense until I am unable to hold back. I cum inside her pussy with the force of a hundred megacreeps. She gets off of me, and as I lay there quivering in pleasure she gets dressed and begins to chuckle. "Only 9 inches? Pathetic."

Man, MK is fun to play. I can wait for him to get nerfed just a little bit more so I can play it without people screaming OP.

stunner

Q: Punch a dude really hard, like Walrus punch, except you also steal strength.
W: Teleports. Like blink dagger but it doesn't go down on cooldown when hit and costs no mana, since MK showed its okay to have 0 mana movement options and I want to see if its also okay for them to work while being hit.
E: Passive damage and stun. +50 damage per level per level, 17% chance of a 2 second stun +1 second per level both when hitting and being hit
Ult: Stuns people.

>+50 damage per level per level
so at level 1 rank 1 it would be 50 damage, at level 10 rank 3 would be 1500 damage, and level 25 rank 4 would be 5000 damage
After MK it seems balanced enough
