To be fair I think you were one of the newest people that we added to our "group" so we probably started this before we knew you all that well :)

I have problem with 1st skill bounty. why would you increase its speed but then reduce its bounty. i mean its getting harder to kill yet the bounty is getting worthless its sound op to mee. not mentioning the vision ok 1000 is fine but with 522 speed, holy hell. thats just my opinion thou.

Oblivious Memoirs - does it remove stun ?. whats mean reapllied with refreshed duration ? does it means if i was struck with Shadow Strike then 10 second later he cast Oblivious Memoirs and once the the duration is over i will get Shadwow Strike debuff again with refreshed duration ?

Blessing of Caduceous - i see its basicly like a mass Shallow Grave to friendly units except to himself. interesting. i could save a lot of life with it. one question does it chaneling ? and how the radius works does it follow him or stay at its initial cast point.

Actually a very valid point, but consider the following:
  • It is one solid skill slot taken for a Flying Courier that can be bought for 370 gold
  • There is absolutely no point in upgrading the courier since it's main objective is simply to give the item to heroes otherwise, and makes his skill build linear
  • With the vision and speed change, it can shifts from 370 gold item to permanent moving Observer Ward
  • What is the point of having a skill that spawns courier if the courier is as good as a simple Flying Courier?
So to sum up: It might be very (if not extremely) strong compared to a normal Flying Courier, but it is a skill slot that can otherwise be used for other purpose, say for disabling or aura. Let's put it this way: will you change Counter Helix on Axe for a skill that gives free OP courier? Well, then again, it might be a bit too strong, what do you suggests then? Probably I'll reduce the vision range and make the bounty stay if everybody agrees.

For the next point, yes, that's exactly what I meant when I said that the duration is reapplied, making this skill a double edged sword. Stuns can be cleansed (of course, not the stuns to him) and is also reapplied afterwards. Rule of thumb: the same cleansing as Aphotic Shield, Diffusal Blade, Kraken Shell and the rest

It is not channeling, and does move alongside with him (similar to Voodoo Restoration)

Anyway, thanks for the comment :)

no the vision is a good thing as it purposed to scout. yep make the bounty stay at first level. probably reduce the movements speed a bit since it already has Speed Burst and Divine Protection :). wait how fast does flying courier movement speed ?

Yeah, maybe we should! It's been so nice knowing you guys, and I wouldn't have gone to any other dota forum instead if I had the chance :P.
