Remember before the update when he was in every game and everyone hated him. Good Times. Thats Pudge, Sniper, and Phantom Assassin now.

People still always pick Riki, even though he isn't nearly as good as he used to be.

oh, oh oh oh oh .You did NOT.just do that.NOPE.

riki is very very Strong now.Yeah.He's a ****ing beast.They just made him more level dependent and more skill requiring than before.Just think about it.The ability to keep chasing your target over insanely long distances used to be impossible on the old riki and used to be impossible against magic immune enemies.The new ultimate, by the way, goes through magic immunity.Also, the cast range of Blink Strike was buffed by a 100 Dm, so we've got that going for us.

I'm not saying that he is as good as before, i'm saying that he is more viable on the higher planes of gameplay.

I never said he isn't strong. He's not as strong as he was before, for sure. That doesn't mean he's weak.

But yeah, Riki is still as annoying as ever.


The only hero I hate more is PA, because everything about PA is stupid.

Stupid to play.

Stupid to counter.

Stupid stupid stupid.

PA is too squishy. If you want someone to hate then look towards Troll Warlord. I have literally man moded with him in game.

This is why I have a 70% winrate with Medusa :D.


EDIT:
Please don't pick AM vs Medusa. Pick Nyx Assassin, Mana Burn ****s her up real hard. Medusa = rekt, guaranteed. No refunds if your team feeds and loses.
