Screw Valve for not rolling the balance patch yet.
Bless 'em for this: http://www.dota2.com/springcleaning

A lot of stuff just got more convenient and I(and I'm sure a lot of other players too) may actually use quickcast now.

Has anyone read the entirety of it and can list the actually impactful changes? The camp spawnbox thing is great, but apart from this I only see some insignificant changes.

Like, who cares that Power Treads disassembles into its original components? You can't disassemble treads, period. So this changes nothing.

Quickcast on button release...what's even the point? If you press your button accidentally you're still Black Holeing the ground -_-

Wait, do you mean there is an option to change q-cast to "key release" or is it reworked to only be that way? I haven't read through it all either yet.

I think they'll change PT being disassemble-able in the next patch, this is more like a balance update than quality of life fix.

There's stuff like hero specific hot-keys, a lot of bug fixes (Like a lot of them), independent muting of voice or chat.

For the most part, it is just cleaning up bugs and some QoL changes. None are especially significant save like
> Fixed desolator to apply its effect on attack landing, not attack starting — still applies before damage is calculated

It's still a great update because we needed a mass bug fix.

EDIT; Seemingly significant ones complied by a guy at Reddit

Spoiler: Click to view

Since you just can't have enough Chaos Breaker.

Pretty sure this is fake, if only because I don't expect Volvo to actually use my Aghs upgrade idea for Clinkz XD

Clearly a fake, just look at the Bane tooltip.

And Broodmother is so ridiculously broken that even OSFrog can't do something this ********. 0 to 4 free spiderlings whenever you kill any unit, instead of one spiderite. Nice hero. Because Brood clearly needs a buff, having an army of 30 spiders isn't enough, it needs to be doubled :)

Looks good though.

Ye I've figured out it's a fake now, not from the tooltips(they can write whatever there and just remove it when it gets released) or Brood change(didn't read lol) but from those ******** items or Aghs upgrades. Free 2k health and Divine Rapier(I'm not even kidding, eating the dragon would give you 320 white(!) damage) for Clinkz? -20 sec cd and 0 manacost for 4.2k gold and an item slot on Slark? Whip of ****ing Torment?

I'm actually glad it;s fake now, I want some serious Luna buffs/meta swings or I will be deeply depressed.
