Was looking over the patch notes for the guide thing, and I just realized... Doesn't it seem like, although WR herself was nerfed, the items and stuff buffed her instead?
I'm not really doing the math, but I suppose with Focus Fire the bash changes would benefit her?
The patch nerfed some scenarios while buffing another, she's still good the way she is. Like I said WR's not overpowered to justify giant nerfs nor is she underpowered to give big buffs. WR's fine where she is
She was (very) slightly buffed. So hero still the same.
She got a very slight nerf that is Shackleshot angle reduced by 3 degrees. So less ******** shackles in the laning stage for example when played mid.
Shackleshot disjointable changes *absolutely nothing*. Zero. Skill has no cast point and projectile is ultra fast. So you're still not dodging blink-shackle. Besides, was shackle following you after you blink out ever a problem? No, it wasn't. Problem was that it was an instant 4 second stun, and it still is.
Everything else is buffs. Note that every hero has 30 more HP now, so burst damage is nerfed, squishy heroes don't really exist anymore, so count that as well.
Abyssal Blade didn't change anything. Damage of the item is still exactly the same in average for single targets, it just does less damage for cleave attacks. There's no such thing as "you need lots of attack speed now", I keep reading this and it makes no sense, please do the math right guys. The change only means that an ever-increasing part of abyssal's damage cannot crit or cleave, but the total damage in average is still the same. This is a nerf to the item btw.
Also, prepare to see a roaming Pudge in literally every game. Actually Blubbles you were looking at the "last month" results not the 6.86 ones. Right now...he's almost at 40% pick rate, at a very comfortable first place. OSFrog.

Please. You need to stop telling people whats really going on.
Yes, but why? Why did he decide that crit is underpowered and MKB(ok Abyssal is really strong) is overpowered?
It's the eternal MKB versus crit choice. But OSFrog introduced a lot of evasion in the game recently so MKB was always better than crit in the latest patches. So he's compensating for that.
And that's making evasion even more annoying to deal with.

I understand your concerns, "Kyfrog". Enlightenment is the natural enemy of trollkin, who thrive on ignorance.
Maybe I could be bribed to join the dark side, for a sensible price. I could prove to be a valuable ally :)
