Not to be overly negative, but…

-Bristleback is so busted he can’t seemingly be killed by phoenix with full duration double laser and vessel. And the fountain works against you every time with that hero.

-Warlock is able to 100 to 0 kill a razor. First time experiencing it, but it honestly feels bullshit that 1 wave+his spells is enough. Like i get similar heroes like WD, but at least he’s kind of dogshit in lane if there’s no kill threat.

-Nature’s Prophet being able to gank literally any lane at level 1 with +70 added base damage. The only counterplay is to rely on allies in HIS lane to 1v2 buttfuck the core when NP leaving lane. Yeah that doesn’t really work in pubs.

-Chaos Knight just being suddenly gigabuffed a week before TI, when a letterpatch should adress balance issues not cause them.

Just recent experiences from my game, where i feel like the existing rules of the game are just turned upside down because balance is all over the place. I don’t know if there’s even been a stable patch in recent times (sleepdart, lina, etc), but this one sticks out like a sore thumb.

There’s almost no reason to play traditional supports either, because if you’re not playing nature’s tractor and farm the map you fall behind so much.
