I was also like, Wow, you went a bit early for your OWN 6.88 patchlog, but hell, good quality.
Then i read the bat treatment on n'aix, and i was : definitly a fake.
And then i opened steam and started downloaded it xD.
Rip N'aix
Slark
* Pounce damage reduced from 50/100/150/200 to 40/80/120/160 Thanks icefrog :) slark got an pretty useless nerf :) he still purges stuns and disables with dark pact
TB buff tho
* Conjure Image manacost reduced from 80 to 70
* Conjure Image duration increased from 32 to 34
Just my 2 cents:
1.Lich will see even more aghanims, now with 50% slow
2.Necro hartstop aura range down 25% will make him less useful early
3.OD the new CM ?
4.Silencer more proper for pubs
Hurricane Pike
* Active now grants 100 Attack Speed for the 4 attacks it provides on the target
Isn't that a bit too op?
You know, I kind of expect Sven to get the same nerf as Lifestealer in a future patch. The toad sure likes to give this treatment lately.
"Legion
* Overwhelming Odds damage per hero increased from 20/35/50/65 to 20/40/60/80
* Moment of Courage cooldown reduced from 2.6/2/1.4/0.8 to 2.3/1.8/1.3/0.8"
In case you were not getting enough jungle legion commanders in your games.
"Phantom Assassin
* Phantom Strike can now target Spell Immune heroes"
This is quite nice.
"Terrorblade
* Conjure Image manacost reduced from 80 to 70
* Conjure Image duration increased from 32 to 34"
Roflmao. How often do TB's illusions last the full 32 seconds in fights unless you are ahead anyway.
"Ursa
* Fury Swipes debuff duration increased from 15 to 20
* Base HP Regen increased from 0.25 to 0.75"
Think the longer fury swipes one wins the award for most pointless "buff" of the patch - when does an Ursa need an extra 5 seconds of his debuff being applied to something in order to kill it. The whole point of the hero is to blink on someone and burst them down from the very start.
RIP Na'ix honestly. I'll still play him obviously, but he is probably in the worst state he has ever been.
Hurricane pike seems a bit insane, now it can replace an attack speed item, a stats item and an utility item all for 4375 Gold, not bad.
EDIT: Not to mention good buildup.
Necro got buffed afaik. The "value point" in hearthstopper early was never really that good, sure it was annoying, but most of the time a player decent at last hitting would be better of with just skilling pulse and sadist and be able to spam pulse more freely anyways. Hearthstopper always was at its strongest in the lategame and now it's even more so, you have to be in the middle of the fight anyways due to your low range spells, so the range nerf really does not affect him that hard. We'll see but im quite sure his winrate (atleast in higher mmr were people actually know how to play) will rise.
Hurricane pike was never really that amazing to begin with, the stats were nice, the build up was great, but i felt like the effect that lets you get free right clicks on them was underwhelming now it works as it should of worked from the start thanks to that bonus attack speed, it feels more fluid.
the death coil cast animation improving is actually a good thing. i remembered so many dead teammates because that fucking long animation
Dat sf buff xD I wonder if they even know what he lacks xd obviously they dont
Where did the necro nerf come from though. Was he picked in competitive?
wtf he got buffed
also can someone explain me why is that lifestealer nerf such a big deal
So... Storm is kind of back... SF is kind of back (at least he should be)... And i'm assuming that icefrog wants a similar midlane draft in TI6...
Also.. Invoker not yet nerfed... Beastmaster still has a broken aura... Slark is still annoying... Meta wont change that bad i guess..
thanks i possess the ability to read
i don't think i can expect any useful info from a 30% wr normal skill smurf but thanks for trying
Sorry @stardust crusader
I did not mean to offend you... I only tried to do the math... Sorry...
Don't worry bro, Einstein was bullied by mediocre 4k physicists too when he published his thoughts and look what he is now.
Ok he's actually dead now but w/e.

Necrolyte
* Heartstopper Aura range reduced from 1200 to 900
* Heartstopper HP drain increased from 0.6/0.9/1.2/1.5 to 0.6/1/1.4/1.8%
Not even Necrophos...
And no nerf to echo sabre... what are you think osfrog, time to continue with the sven spam
@arin
The nerf on N'aix mean that no matter what N'aix do, he attack ~9% slower.
which mean slower push, slower farm, slower to kill people (and even slowlier cause he has a bit less stuff).
That nerf doesn't touch his laning phase at all, but severly touch his midgame -and thus his lategame both directly and indirectly-, since he has nothing but auto attack.
Also, on a hero that is very kitable, such a reduction of dps output might also be what separate a kill, from a "need 1 more hit to kill".
Just look how sven disappeared with little to no nerf, and he was MUCH LESS suseptible to kited due to his superior burst.
Edit: You cann't dumpster game with medusa, cause nyx, no matter his role, even at 0-55, as long as he has maxed mana burn, will kill you in 4 second (or least make SUCH tremendous damage to you that even the worst noob in his team will be able to finish you in the second).
