Illusions die quickly to centaur thanks to his dual aoe dmg, the rework on double edge is aoe which sweeps images away.

Btw as a general skillset he is very very powerfull, compared to most other heroes. Point being he has double stun... and a nuke, and one of those stuns transfers to the whole team, with speed buff and trample. Not many heroes have double cc, and the ones that do are usually glass. Centaur is as tanky as they come. Plus the new dmg return is pretty boss for farming.

Indeed, Return is really good, you just sit there and the towers and creeps kill themselves. It's pretty funny though.

It doesn't help that Double Edge is quite spammable either. With his strength gain and a hood or whatever he can just use that thing all day and drop 400 damage on other heroes whenever he wants. Most nukes only go up to 300 or something and even if he hurts himself, he has such a high hp pool that it doesn't even make that big of a difference.

hmmm. I haven't yet played against a centaur since dota 1. so maybe the illusions are obsolete.
it always worked before. PA, drow or sniper with manta. not sure with stampede.

i guess the only way to stop him is to prevent him from getting fat.

Rampages on him are quite easy, now that Double Edge got turned into a slight AoE skill. I recently got one, i was fun :3.

Obviously he is going to get nerfed in the future, even though he got a recent nerf, he still needs to be balanced

So does his hardeb ability which reflects attakcs, is that permanent? Does that work only on autoattacks, cuz that was worrying me the most.

His Return is a passive so yes its permanent but it is doesn't return all damage like a Blade Mail. It deals damage to the attacker every time they begin to attack him based on a flat amount of damage and a percent of his strength. It isn't incredibly op but its up there.

He really does seem OP. I've never played him yet or played against him, but his Double Edge and Return skills are just really strong. :\

Lifestealer yes and no, huskar only early game, same with zues. Enigma definately not and same for necro. Bkb is a standard on him so those heroes realy dont even scratch him.


Black king bar on centaur is like asking:DO NOT ATTACK ME.He is meant to be attacked so return works.+ Thats why Black Hole Exists.And Necrolytes aura is based on HP Removal,same as Vengeful Spirits shout,so it goes through BKB.
