thanks for the insight =] i agree that the broodmother nerf is strange, i almost think that IceFrog wants brood to move out of the lanes and into the woods to avoid farming the other team, which doesnt make sense with his gank-push new gameplay ideas.

Any ideas?

p.s. how do u get into dotaleague games

[Luminous48]

you gotta be registered in dota league, and then click "Join SIGs"

[potatoman32323]

yeah buy like, how do you get the game name? is it posted on dota-league?

[Luminous48]

once you joined the game, the system will wait for 9 other people. When there's 10 people, Dota League will bring you to another page with the game name posted.

Hopefully there's a host amongst the 10, and a game should hosted on the Europe Bnet server

pl is not imba...

[Luminous48]

i beg to differ

[XunilarM]

Fail about the Visage :o

@heheitsjohnE ur mom is retarded!

[heheitsjohnE]

@kaiz88 you're retarded!

haha on that pl game he showed PL bought a sacred relic on his chicken and the beastmaster killed it. He lost 3800 gold and farmed in back in like 5 minutes. That was great.

btw, the BM nerf is necessary... As you have mentioned, he is gearing dotA towards ganks and pushes. Broodmother will be a huge pick, it had to be nerfed or else it's basically banned every game or tilt the balance to one side!

[wtfnamestaken1]

nice, an unmentioned change that i like is the movement speed buff on naix, rapes =).

And yeh, we will be seeing ursa perma banned or picked now!

[femtau]

urn is a roaming item for the most part, rewards from kills, and mana regen to avoid fountain trips., he's trying to make the game more gank/push oriented. i think chen/deathproph are strong picks. pressure on towers, anti-initiation. we'll see.

[JustDiePlease]

Thanks for insightful analysis :)

And i think you forgot how radiance now can be toggled on and off for its 40 magic damages per seconds, which can be used for gank more often, especially for Treant.

Anyways, again, good job!

[SinClaire131]

The new heroes will be nerfed next version imo...

I wanna see those force staffs on pro games!

btw, luv that Lost My Peices thing ^__^ i wuv toradora!

I think IceFrog wants to encourage people to stop Broodmothers ridiculous tower pushes and farming. I have witnessed way to many games where a broodmother just sits and free farms uncontested while taking down all the towers in a lane to come out lvl 11 with a bkb.
