I love it existing, personally, it makes tiny even more fun than he already is, but it absolutely needs a cooldown reflective of its ridiculous damage

I think the idea behind it was that you won't always be around 6 trees to get the full combo off, but I guess icefrog forgot that the Dota2 map is covered in trees.

Maybe instead of a cool door to give it a prechannel, like every 1.5 seconds of channel gives him a tree to throw up to 6 trees , sort of like Epicenter. As it is now, it's just too much for a hero as hard to stop as tiny.

The NP trees are 100% normal trees for all purposes, I thought, just that they disappear after a few seconds.

A) don’t log in to sa, social media, Reddit
B) head to dota2 ti website to view the games one by one unspoiled.

I opened up Chrome to access YT and one of the articles on the home page was the winner's announcement. It was pretty lovely.

Artifact doesn't have a large dev group because they're still trying to figure out how to balance deck building costs.

Maybe Tiny gets a nerf? His win rate wasn't extraordinary but his abilities are so powerful in team fights that at times it didn't even matter if he was properly farmed, an AoE rolling stun and huge positioning ability will change any fight.

They need to fix sidegunner working in Chrono.

Lone Druid went 0-6 and Mars went 1-7. Venge went 0-5. Doubt that means an automatic buff, but I'd love to see more Venge buffs.

I could see them tacking a few seconds on the toss cooldown. Avalanche is fine, sometimes it looks weak as hell and other times it looks godly, seems about right to me. I wonder if they'll adjust Rubick a little, maybe a nudge down on the arcane supremacy? A tweak to shadow demon, shave a little off soul catcher?

I think they'll probably go for more gentle buffing up rather than nerfing in general. That seems to be the Frog plan these days.

Often times they sort of buff a counter or buff a counter-role to make that hero less appealing.

but if fy retires without winning, then he's #1 in my heart.

Half of why DK lost is because DK's draft strategies were leaked during the tournament
