But the slight numbers tweak shouldnвЂ™t affect his overall playstyle or his powerspike in the end game.Д«atrider has always been a staple pick in almost every iteration of DOTA. It is not surprising that he has been bonked hard with the nerf hammer. He has transitioned from this midgame ganker to a late game DPS machine. While the strat is still viable, these skill and talent changes seek to nerf their other abilities even more.Д¬linkz was also one of the strongest carries in the previous patch. From creep stacking to aura items, they have all been tweaked one way or another. The Zoo meta has been nerfed from all angles.

The nerfs to other flash farming jungle heroes plus this slight buff could mean that Alche is once again the most viable jungling core/mid. In usual Valve fashion, Alchemist has once again received buffs pre-TI.

Professional teams can and will maximize the global presence and versatility of this tanky offlaner or support. This hero who has never skipped leg should not be underestimated. This is the first instance wherein the professional debut of a new hero will be in TI. HeroesДawnbreaker could be the X-factor heading into TI. These slight nerfs will not eliminate the strategy altogether but expect other alternatives to take their place in some games. The build-up to HotO was changed to Helm of the Dominator and VladimirвЂ™s Offering- two items that beast-keeping heroes like Chen, Beastmaster, and Lycan would use.

The current flavor of the patch seems to be toning down the most viable strategies of the previous patch, one of which was the partial return of the вЂњzoo metaвЂќ due to this item in particular. ItвЂ™s a relatively small nerf, but since a lot of heroes use the item, expect it to affect many win rate percentages. It would seem that the nerfs to status resist items like Aeon Disk is an indirect buff to BKB. Sange remains the only item with flat status resist. The build-up to the item was also practical for many cores and offlaners- they would build the item for stats and mand then disassemble the item for BKB in a later stage of the game. Heroes such as Slark, Sven, Tiny, and Pangolier enjoyed the mana regeneration, the stats, and the active as well. The nerfs to Echo Sabre are justified mainly because it was too efficient.

Expect playmaking mids and non-flash farming cores to make a comeback. This nerf to stacking means that the meta heroes (Sven, Gyro, Luna, etc) that loved to clear stacks will now have to wait a bit longer to come online. Securing ancient stacks meant securing the game. In the previous patches, the early and mid game was focused on stacking jungle camps for your team, and conversely, raiding the enemyвЂ™s stacks. This is the biggest meta-shifting change in this sub-patch. A stacked neutral camp вЂ“ achieved by pulling creeps out of spawn boxes as timers hit minute mark (via Medium/Mike)
