Bumped

Currently I've seen some big comebacks like Chen being use alot more often. Ogre Magi is making his debut by becoming an alternative to Sven. Omni is already becoming a common ban since slow auras are now harder to escape from. Most surprisingly Brood mother is becoming popular. With the new style of play becoming centered on pushing, brood has no problem taking down towers. Brood can jungle well and his slow is almost inescapable especially when combined with omni.

Bump again

There's also talk of the increased use of midas in 6.52 draft games. Orochi says it's an MYM article, so you'll have to consult him

lovely thaughts counter force =]

nerfs on dagger probably had the mst impact on the game. the following pages of rants and opinions agree'd with the nerf.

i still think the dagger is usefull, e.g using crixalix's epicenter to channel up until the final point.

but bane can still use dagger succesfully, sleep, blink ulti combo.

somenody said pudge loves the nerf =]] wlel he does =].


about missing the good ol'days with clinx dominating arnt that far gone yet..
still clinx farming 100% of the time doing nothing but farm for the most part of the game, then ripping apart all the players


i have sene the increa eof HoM myself, usually on lich and int charactors struggling early game.

very imformative though =]

Despite constant nerfs in recent versions, Sand king is still as popular.

Visage is getting more and more popular. Some people are even picking him on AP, which nobody has done earlier. Some people even own with him. And not with int builds, which makes him a very dangerous hero.

Lesharc is also on the rise. People pick him more and more, and own heavily with him early game.

I have noticed that nobody picks heroes like Naga SIren, GOrgon, or MAgnataur, although people own with them when they get them on ar, or sd. Dont know why that is.

Midas is definitely a powerful yet often overlooked item in 6.52.

i don't know what you mean by no naga, as the game is revolving largely around farming (hell even em games are turning into 30 minutes farming/rapid gang runs, 10 minutes push and win)

naga is still being picked and still winning the game.

the new hero seems to be a powerful carry or somewhat tank-carry

i have still yet not played him, so i will rest my opinions first

Went up against that CG today. Missile is very powerful scouting tool and not of much use in killing. Cogs are some sort of barrier. Shrapnel spray some variation of Diabolic Edict. Hook Shot very good positioning and initiating skill, requires practice. Performed decently in that match, will critique more after more matches.

i have found CG to be like a pitlord that functions really well in battle, people laughed when i rushed him an orchid but really, its exactly what he needs.
from there i got Radiance and MkB (and eventually heart bits)
he is a very good ganking hero and you need quick eyes to rune scout effectively.

i find that spray is like edict meeds cold snap.

missile is the ultimate in ksing and a good 150 damage finisher.
massive aoe makes it a reasonable farming tool as well.

i'd say he's a usual level hero, nice scout, can be used to counter junglers, a diabolic edict like skill and a useful ganking ulti

bane is now, a viable league pick

with a powerful damage buff and scouting ability, as well as a kind of improvement to his ultimate, he can now coordinate his moves better, and be more of a pusher. too bad bash is removed

Luna moonfang is imba at late games, she can take down two heroes at once..
