    Oh my god! Why you make ember spirit more bad than before? he has low STR and now you decreased that so easily... and now, xin maybe cannot survive in late game.. so bad

    ReplyDelete
  35. da'faq is with centaur..
    why not make scepter for him so he'll get like infinite str.
    and maybe in next map you should increase the return damage to 100%
    It's extra hard to kill him.
    Not fun when he's in any team!!

    Invoker..!! Sun strike now deals pure damage max lvl at 475 imbaa its like dagon level 3 that can be cast globally wooo..! (note that dagon will not deal pure damage,lvl 3 has 600 dmg on the description but when you use it on a hero wid just 5~9 armor the damage will just like 400~500)

    Ogre..!! Imba but I think the mana is two high its costs 400! pls reduced it to 325 on 6.74b

    Lina..!! (suggestion) Increase Light STrike Array AoE a little bit and the Fiery Soul grants a passive move speed even you are not casting spell just like Krobelus's Witch Craft.. Thankss

    Nevermore is still the weakest hero, Nothing new and pinoy SF players still burst out of exaggeration for their stupidity. Easily pawned, Pinoys are known to use hotkeys which is extremely banned during tournaments. SF pinoy players use hotkeys because they can't press and play at the same time. Dumb pinoy gangsters.
