Holy Shit This Patch! Dota is very realistic now in General Discussion

    Seems like icefrog and the team are making SKILLS and HEROES true to the lore and as accurate as possible to the descriptions.

    Agility heroes now move faster based on their agility stat
    [makes sense]

    Strength heroes now have resistance to status
    [heroes that are strong in the heart have better resistance or immunity against all sorts of debuffs to their bodies]

    Intelligent heroes now have more magical resistance
    [yeah, they are now cleverer]

    Riki now?
    -Enemy units in Smoke Screen have no vision.
    [It is pretty true that in real life you have almost no vision inside a smoke screen, same like CSGO].

    -Cloak and Dagger Doesn't Reveal
    No actions take you out of invisiblity. Only true sight reveals riki.
    [What this means is that, if Riki chooses this talent @ lvl 25, he is invisible all the time unless you activate dust, have gem or sentry near him, otherwise, he will just hit u and u cannot see him, you can still damage him with those skills that affect invisible units]

    Slardar now?
    -Guardian Sprint moves at 700 Speed along the river at ability-level 4

    TINY now?
    - Tree grab
    - 0 Armor and 0 Agility

    Broodmother?
    -No invisiblity in spider web
    -Movements buff even when attacked in web
    -Better spiders now

    Morph?
    -Can now morph into any opponent heroes and become an exact replica with abilities.

    Holy shit this patch.

                am playing it now in test client, looks good

                Friendly player

                  These new heroes remind me of LoL.

                  Pale Mannie

                    every new hero reminds everyone of League of Lepers

                      Very excited to play this patch on main client. Feels bad for poor man shield tho

                        I've been begging and praying for agility heroes to move quicker based on agility <3
                        Glad to see the dream come true.

                          ^the hilarious thing is that warcraft 3 world editor literally has a field for this kinda shit but it was never used either in wc3 melee/campaign or dota

                          [Lk].Zano

                            The only thing that doesn't make sense is Tiny having no armor (no agility does), that is, he's pretty fragile, despite being a damn rock. Rocks are not soft...unless Icefrog is telling us he's supposed to be made out of sandstone or something even softer.

                            Dire Wolf

                              Yes no armor or agility tiny is awful. It’s one of the main issues with that hero. Ok you don’t have to farm aghs now that’s good cus you’ll sure as fuck need a casual plate mail every game.

                              Riguma Borusu

                                you get a platemail and still have less armor than every single hero in the game including supports

                                god damn it

                                Oldman

                                  In tiny games thre will be no tress on lanes.

                                    I am so looking forward to grab a tree on which is hanging monkey... :D

                                      Whatever I’ll be too busy spamming wk with necro book and vlads to worry about it.

                                        "Courier can no longer be purchased more than once". Best thing ever.

                                                      you didnt mention morphling shitty ms now is good since the agi perk

                                                      Shm1l:)

                                                        So as I understand now, mbk is no more thru strike now just 75% of pure damage. So now for pa is better silver and ember with thru strike talent. But what to to with loot evasion talents, butterfly bloodhorn, only? Riky seams op for low mmr.
                                                        Kaya for looks like strong item for spells caster.
                                                        Meepo has good talents, and and i forgot new morph looks that they want to make him as more fight that split push hero.
                                                        Medusa got nerff, but she wasn`t op don` t understand that.
                                                        I can`t wait to see play.
