Another reminder to not take this as the actual patch notes! I find it interesting enough to add as news, just making sure everyone knows this isn't confirmed or denied.

They should have buffed the druid at the same time as they nerfed his bear.

Assuming this is right, looks like a lot of stuff I could agree with - some BIG stat growth gains for some less used heroes...really liking the Lancer nerfs too.

I might call fake on this. Some of these buffs just don't seem reasonable. Broodmother, Spectre and CM changes specifically. Some of the stuff I do agree with but it also seems like he's giving every single hero a base armor increase, for no reason honestly. I may be proven wrong in the time to come, but for right now I'm calling fake.

Ancient Apparition buff <3
And razor 15+ MS? o.O
The game will become kinda unbalanced this way, with the most picked nerfed so badly and all the others buffed so hard.
