Shit so many starting items for tank offlaners just changed

"Techies: Added a sound effect when Proximity Mines are being primed to explode "
I don't understand why techies keeps getting hit so fucking hard.... I thought they tried to balance from the pro scene meta not pubs in 2k where people complain about techies... you had all the time in the world to right click his mines as a melee core walking blind up hill but now they hit my boy even harder by letting everyone know to turn around right away and get ready to farm a free mine...
fuck techies is why, no one likes playing with him, against him, or as him, all he does is make every game worse to play.
what is this black sorcery? a damage buff to doom's doom? i'll go eat some granite golems then.
so viper gets 20 armor at level 25. Good luck fucking killing him with your 5 carry lineup.
My thoughts:
-Treant is dead in pubs
-General buff to split-push yet again
-Roamers now benefit from Tranquils alot more
-Midas is no longer as relevant on pos. 4-5
-Quelling blade nerf hurt junglers
-Abaddon nerf is insignificant
-Brood is buffed yet again, I love it
-Enchantress is buffed yet again, I love it
Yes , at least chemical rage cooldown. Fuck that forever ulti with octarine core. Cancer as fuck
alche mid now weaker too with acid spray lower radius
which is probably i think one of the most impactful changes for pubs
why lifestealer got nerfed?
for me, ursa is much better carry then lifestealer, and ursa had no changes, while lifestealer 3 nerfs in a row... really makes you think
So.... Is there any point for getting midaa now xD.
never get this for gold , you get for exp and extra reliable gold on top.
Wth midas change lul
^u get in the position u used to get it in, when u r a hard carry and u r stupidly ahead and can hit the sub 8 min timing. Also dont forget this is a hidden invoker nerf.
Lina change is the thing I looked up to. I already knew he was about to get nerfed. Not bad. Lvl 10 respawn talent is OP. And the new Level 10 and 15 talent interchange is a good nerf. Cast range and LSA +dmg, respawn time and dmg. I like this. Lina is OP in pubs before this patch.
^^why is your MMR equal to your number of games? 1 game = 1 MMR? Kappa
Brewmaster: Earth Primal Unit's Demolish now gives +90/180/270 damage vs buildings (effectively 300% of base damage, instead of 300% of total damage)
RIP

* Lycan: Shapeshift critical strike damage increased from 140/160/180 to 160/180/200%
LYCAN IS THE NEW TRUE CANCER START SPAMMING LYCAN BOYS GO GO GO
First Arc Warden.Now Monkey.
Dragon Knight lvl.10 talent from 25+ AS to +30 AS
Pick talent 30+ AS + Early SB = Dragon Troll
Lina is still strong
+125 cast range at lvl 10 is good although not as good as respawn time reduction
Would still take +50 Damage over respawn talent
You just don't get annoying perma presence of her anymore but she will be harder to deal with
125 Cast Range at level 10 is a god tier upgrade. You shouldn't need the respawn time now if you just solo kill everything on the map at 12 minutes in without a Blink, Aether, or Shadow Blade. Its like pre-retcon Euls a year and a half ago. And you can get that level and a Euls by that minute mark with relative ease.
Yes, indeed, she is still very strong.
Tranquils got a +10 move speed while broken so they'll still be go to boots for most supports that used them before. Like axe can easily run up on you before blink with tranqs and maybe windlace.
I think the most hidden buff of all is viper. Idk why he wasn't picked 7.04 or had sub 50% in most brackets, cus with mjollnir he is a legit carry, or he can still mid but doesn't fall off late game.
7 armor vs 75 range was pretty stupid, both not that great, but the poison attack vs buildings is downright incredible. They attack so fucking slow with that, not quite jakiro level but very close. So easy to siege with lance viper. And now 20 armor at 25 LOL WUT. That's +120% ehp. So if you're 25 with like skadi and pike as hp items it takes you from around 6700 ehp to around 9500 ehp. It's a stupid amount of armor.
New viper build I think, treads, pike, mjollnir, ac, butter, skadi. He will be unkillable and do a fucking ton of tower dmg with that attack speed and nethertoxin.
With poison attack hitting buildings he needs something like bloodthorn or linkens for mana regen, and i like to get an early health regen item on him too like hood or smth. I went aquila boots treads raindrop lance hood pike mjollnir skadi and going on to bloodthorn.
(1) I think Doom will comeback as a relevant niche offlaner.
(2) DP will also become as a strong mid hero against the meta mids rn such as TA, Invoker and Alch.
(3) NP offlane will be strong. It is already but no one is really abusing it.
(4) Lycan will become more relevant and take down 1 lane at a time when he's alive. (Same as NP) Plus towers are weaker with the armor changes when ratting is happening.
(5) Somewhat roamers got buffed cause of the new tranquils.
(6) Midas is a much more greedy item for supports. Bad on pos 4 and 5 since they need xp.
Conclusion: icefrog buffed the 1 man rat strat again so significant heroes got buffed such as solo pick-off heroes(Storm, QOP), counter push heroes(Kotl, Tink) and ofc, solo rat heroes(NP, Lycan, TB, DR, AM)
Np is simply too squishy to fit the bill of a good offlaner in pros. In pros usually the roamer is covering offensive capability with disable and teamfight, so the offlaner becomes a defensive hero who can save like aba. Not always true obviously, but np is too squishy to carry auras and shit, i think he fits the role of a niche pos 1.
Shoutout to Valve for nerfing Earth Spirit since 6.83. Thanks for ruining yet another good hero.

Yeah so Zeus even more buffs.
Spectre/Zeus is just waiting for one single reddit thread on how a guy spammed his way to 9k playing only Spectre this patch for it to hit your pubs.
Reckon I might even start playing some more Zeus games if I could get access to the Internet on my PC.
