So Icefrog has added spell lifesteal and cooldown reduction into Dota, interesting. And the most interesting part is that both of these features were what the community didn't want into Dota because they were supposed to break the balance of certain Heroes.

By the way, I love the Agh's upgrade on Nyx: I haven't completely understood how that works, but it seems fun and I finally have something to build on the Hero.

I'll do a long patch analysis post explaining each change, how they affect Heroes, and my thoughts on how it will affect the meta at large.

SPOILER: Huge ****ing changes. ****in duh.
There are two kinds of people in the world; those who can count, and those who can't.

Storm spirit has got the nerf that he desrves, the -5 ms affects his laning stage a lot. He was easy to gank but now it's even easier. Kill him a few times early and he won't be able to do much. Or just pick doom, counters him in every single way.
Not sure about troll, the damage from berserkers rage was significant, his laning stage has also been hurt a lot so i think it's enough. He can buy abyssal now tho, which will be stupid.
Lina didn't get nerfed at all basicly and I hate her.
DK will be good again, the 35% reduction is amazing.
Meepo got nerfed hard, removing the 20% lesser death timer means long respawn times very early on.

Just some of the things that caught my eye.

We're all forgetting the 2 most important things here.
The changes to wards are brilliant for Supports! Both go in one slot, and are purchased individually. This patch was very kind to supports :D But most importantly

Attacking a ward can no longer miss (same for Sentry Wards)


YES! Thank you Icefrog! I don't know how many time's i've been caught dewarding...

I can now farm Mud Golems as well! No longer are they my bane. Still annoying buggers, but i can handle now.

I SWEAR 1/2 OF THE CHANGES WERE FROM DOTAFIRE

DAT ALCHEMIST AGHS WERE FROM HERE I SWEAR

Summed up:
Bloodseeker why the nerfs just when he needed buffs ;_; they really need to bring back the old Thirst
Huskar YISS thats a dank nerf. inner vitality was underrated and hopefully people will see truth
Ursa great rework. The previous one was weird.
Silver Edge complete ********. Best manfight item NA.
Glimmer Cape interesting but dont quote inderstand the magic resist. Situational item imo.
Octarine Core at first glance it seems disgusting but.. Then i think it is an interesting item. Even for a low cooldown spell it is still a useful item.
Patch Name: Disgustingly Interesting
Don't Worry, Be Happy

Late credits to Janitsu for the sig

Firstly, Hi everyone! ^_^ Really couldn't not have an account for any longer xD
Okay, but what I think people should be considering is how ******* good that octarine core will be on Skywrath and Timber, i mean, just think of it people, lifestealing sky ultis and permanent timber chains.
BEAUTIFUL!!

Add me if you like, would really love to play with some people who know how to play the game ^_^

When you use the glimmer cape you get magic resistance, and even if invisibility is broken the magic resistance is still kept, so basically gives 66% magic resist until the buff wears off.
