TB will get nerfed, TA will get a bit of an adjustment, probably LC as well. I'd put more money on tangential changes like xp, gold, curves, etc that help reshape the laning meta than big hero hits though. And don't forget talent changes rather than actual ability changes.
Yeah, hitting 6 at 10+ minutes as a support sucks balls, I enjoyed 7.00-7.04 a bit more. I'm hoping for some more talent changes a lot of them are pretty boring

Holy fuck, I only go to Reddit like once a month but this had my sides in literal orbit. Like a Tusk kick:

Waka's videos are amazing. Balance of power was one of my favorites, fucking hysterical.


Side note, checking out the NP hype train and they kinda look like shit. Don't like their drafting, lackluster plays and EE is consistently playing subpar. Shocker.

Fuck does NP stand for anyway?

Was told it was originally a place holder joke until they came up with something better, meaning "Name Pending". Don't know if thats true or not.

Breast cancer at 26 is not unheard of, especially if there were cases in the family and she is expected to make full recovery, still sucks tho. At least she is living in EU.

Haha, reddit comments:

-If she can handle supporting at 3k and being a face in the DOTA community, she can handle this. Get well soon, Sheevs!

-3k supporting probably gave her the cancer

She could raise more money than a TI if the need was there. The Dota community will have her back. I wish her the best.

Navi managed to qualify for a The Summit, but I'm not holding my breath for any decent performance. I'd be amazed if Secret doesn't trash them at Epicenter, since they impressed me much more during Dreamleague and other qualifiers. Puppey still drafts weird shit, but they execute really well.

A donator on Bulldog's channel had an idea for TI3 finals rematch charity event for breast cancer. They'd raise a ton.

I've been a sub of Sheever's for 3 years and have always thought she was incredibly driven and professional. She used to do public reading and speaking streams to improve her language and communication. She do singing. And of course back in the day when she was solo casting like 8 hours of DotA.

Met her last year at TI and other than being like even taller in person she was super cool. Knew who I was from being her sub and immediately remembered me, wanted to know how TI was, what my feedback on the changes this year was, very down to earth.

Mineski cementing themselves as biggest throw force since VP or C9. Those last two games were just hilarious.

WTF? You earn 30% of the exp if you deny a creep now?! I can't be reading this correctly. You can earn exp off your own friendly creeps? Tell me I am mistaken?
