Might be another month sadly.
6.83 was cool cause it had fun meta heroes, and lots of hidden secret meta heroes (like Lina until she got noticed in 6.84) Sniper didn't really matter to me, he was easy to kill, nice and squishy. I guess I like the late game meta in that patch cause solo pick offs happened a lot more cause there was less grouping.
6.84 was godlike, insanely fun, TI was in the horizon, things were all positive vibes. (fun mid heroes, Storm, Lina, Queen, SF, Leshrac, Wind ranger somewhat, TA, somewhat)
6.85, dull patch, but not that bad.
6.86, not dull, a solid patch, but nothing as fun as 6.84 was, only thing I hate is Spectre, she's the first hero of a meta who has ever annoyed me.
OD, slark, invoker, spectre, ursa, zeus, np nerfs incoming. and bye bye dota addiction.
I don't think Slark's getting nerfed, the hero hasn't been changed for the past 3 patches (not nerfed or buffed) he's a pub stomper, so they'd never buff him, cause he'd be ridiculous, but in competitive play he's pretty balanced. The only reason he might be extra strong in pubs next patch is cause all of his carry competition that has been getting nerfed the past few patches, while he stayed the same. Same with Wind ranger and Templar Assassin, it's a matter of time for them, their competition is getting nerfed, bye 6.84 mid heroes, and bye 6.86 mid heroes soon.
Next one might be the last patch before TI which means all the fun to watch heroes will be buff. Storm buff guaranteed
My predictions
Heros to be nerfed:
Popular in competitive
Invoker further slight nerfs
Earth Spirit further slight nerfs
Gyrocopter further slight nerfs
Chen slight nerf
Witch doctor slight nerf
Popular in pubs
Invoker further slight nerfs
Spectre nerfed
Zeus possible slight nerf
Heroes to be buffed:
Popular in competitive
Beastmaster another slight buff
Bane further buffs
Disruptor further buffs
Popular in pubs but not in competitive so are going to be even more OP/annoying in pubs
Pudge buffed again
LC buffed again
PA buff
Slark buff
Necrophos buff
Omniknight buff
Abaddon buff
Riki buff
Not particularly popular in either
Winter wyvern slightly rebuffed to try and be a bit more viable, still will have useless ultimate.
Elder Titan further buffs
Brewmaster buffed
Terrorblade slight buff
Oracle even more changes which alter almost all his skills again
Leshrac slight buff to move him back into situational viability
Naga Siren buffs (I will abandon dota forever if this hero ever reaches fotm level)
Arc Warden buff
Lycan buff
Phoenix further buffs
Nyx Assassin further buffs
Pugna further buffs
Timbersaw further buffs
Centaur warrunner further buffs
Warlock further buffs
Jakiro further buffs
Doom slight undoing of the nerfs (probably buff to devour or infernal blade)
Clockwerk buff
Puck further buffs
Tinker further buffs
SWM further buff
Magnus further buff
Kunkka buff
Venomancer big buff probably incoming - this was one of only 4 of the non-banned in captains mode heroes not picked at Shanghai major the others being meepo, sniper and storm, despite the fact that venomancer has been buffed repeatedly in every patch since 6.82 (apart from 6.83 were he received no changes).
Ogre Magi buff
Probably some more changes but I'm getting tired at this point.
Item changes:
Some random item removed from sideshop
Another random item added to sideshop
Blademail duration increased from 4.5 to 5.
Cripple (rod of atos active) will now grant units that attack the target 50% accuracy up from 40%.
Heart of tarrasque HP regen increased to 5% up from 4.75%.
A couple of random items which are more or less popular have their cost increased or decreased from between 50 to 200 gold.
Drums of Endurance active movement speed increased to 15% up from 13%.
how about we talk how meepo will get nerfed further despite having overall winrate of 42%
Time for new patch modt definently
TIME FOR AZGALOR AKA PITLORD!!!!!!!
ALSO
nerf hitbox on shackleshot reduced windwalk time revet Ursa retarded changes nerf Lone druid roar nerf Invokers summons or Simply reduced his and their s attack range.
TI 4 meta and TI3 was best metas so far TI1 was pretty good aswell but so few heroes.
Also Fix Ursas 20 attackspeed bugg and untouchable not working prover more thats bugged sny skadi and every attackspeed slow thing in The game.
idk i know you guys had it so rough during the early days of 6.86 release, but the adjustment period is done, and I think a lot of entries here are rather silly.
* Nerf OD (idk just FUCKING NERF)
* Bring back Invo (disable plz)
* Slight nerf Chen (CD changes)
* Buff Jakiro (stat/stat gain changes)
* Nerf and buff Spectre (reduced desolate, increased skill 1 duration, increased Dispersion)
* Nerf LD (PLZ)
* Nerf Puck (stat/stat gain plz mate, skill changes)
* Slight buff Leshrac
I think invoker is OK after the defeating blast nerf.. He is still a little overpowered..but rightly so because he has 10 skills.. He is supposed to be better than other heroes.. But OD man..that thing is just too much to deal with
Bro, Invoker has pretty much the best stat gain in the game, plus, the fucking orbs give him a lot! There is no hero in dota that has 4(four !!!!) +primary stat gain/lvl. Wtf is this shit???
Pugna has 4.. Centaur has 3.8.. As @inx4c said he is just a strong hero.. And he has 38 base damage..
I don't think they really need to nerf anyone, just buff a couple other heroes.
-Buff sniper, reduce the shrapnel cd, reduce the activation time.
-Buff troll warlord, give back 15 dmg on melee form
-Buff dk, increase stun range a bit
-Buff storm, just revert his last nerfs or something
-Nerf OD a bit, but not sure how. Maybe just reduce orb int steal to 2/2/3/4? Maybe reduce the dmg to 5/6/7/8%?
