>stacking bracers is legit now

I just woke up what's the status on the slut sisters? Dumpstered or still good?

>>Techies: +250 Attack Damage (Level 25)
what's the point?

2nd TI win inc

>jugg is built as you would in a normal game
>bh is built to get absolute most damage save for rapier

really gets ur noggin joggin

HotS-lite removed to the dismay of leddit shitters, game is Dota again with more viable heroes (Visage and Arc come to mind). Good time to reinstall.

>Years of streamlining dota and make it more forgiveful to hopefully pander to casuals
>Instead playerbase dies

Why cant he just do that always, jesus christ.

NOT ON OUR WATCH

LMAO 2 BOAR

>BKB piercing 60% slow

it doesnt pierce spell immunity retard

they suck cocks

What did Lina mean by that hand sign?

...

Can't wait for esports. Thank you osfrog

>Reworked Scepter
So thats 50, not 7.
Its also 30% ALL DAMAGE OUTPUT, making it decrease spell damage as well.
Its worth burning the cooldown for.

>Instead playerbase dies
are you chinese?

so... refresher sven? :^)

>Synderen making another team of rejects and shitters that won't go anywhere/get 16th place and we'll be cucked out of him casting TI7.

JUST

it's a ok

GIVE IT UP

So the game is good again, which change is the one that made the difference?

>Legion Commander
>Duel Scepter now additionally grants Spell Immunity to your hero during Duel

So am I missing something or does a legion commander with a few early game duel wins, a blademail, and a scepter become literally unkillable now? 6/7/8 seconds of duel is sooooo fucking long.

Scepter was bad because you'd just get chain CCed by competent teams, so you still had to have a bkb. Now nothing short of multiple etherial blades can stop you. There simply aren't enough magic piercing stuns in most games to reliably disable the legion. Especially if she builds a linkens on top of that.

Plus you can just throw the scepter in your backpack if you are picking their carry with your team.

How the fuck is this not broken? It's bkb with upside.

>ocatrine beastmaster
>LMAO 6 BOAR
frosty toad the madman

strict solo queue

Removal of all -respawn talents and the -2 base shrines

CM doesn't seem like she was nerfed too hard. Not like I ever spammed her ult off cd at low levels.

t. grandpa

>Bkb with upside
>Can't use for escaping

Freezetoad finally convinced Valve that leddit is retarded and that even shitters don't want Dota to be a babby memefight game.

Gtfo my lawn hotsbabby

What stream should I watch if I want to become the best at 7.06?

some tumblr trap video

...

my penis pierces ure mums penis LOL

Shrines should be charged by killing shit and not having a set CD

Thank fuck. Icefrog did pretty much everything I wanted him to do. I'm sorry for doubting you man, you're still a pretty cool guy.

>Io: Tether Stuns (Level 25)
Missed me?

Been too long my man, been too long

>BM
Gtfo fucking lolbabby

well multiple reasons.
you can still save you ally if you have a banish skill (shadow demon or OD come to mind).
there are also bkb piercing damage sources (like enchantress and silencer who's aghs seems broken as all fuck to me).
add to that stuff like roots or shit you can put on her pre duel (like HH) and it's good but 100% possible to play around.
major upgrade over her old aghs though.

Still not playing
Never liked 7.00 to begin with

>shrines nerfed
>neutrals back to normal
thank god, hope the rest is good too

I like this patch

oh no better hit the reddits and get rio- I mean valve to ban VP from competing so your feefees can be preserved

Time to wait for Torte to update his guides.
