    Hey Mr. Icefrog.. Don't you think viper's corrosive skin is too much? the poison duration is too long! how long was it? 5/6/7 seconds? plus, it slows movement & attack speed, it also has damage over time. it's pretty frustrating.. its already hard to fight viper with his vanguard on.. plus the corrosive skin??? its even harder.. especially when you're an int type-low hp hero, you need like.. 3 guys to take him on.. hard as f*ck. i like viper.. but please balance it in the next map.

    Huskar's 3rd skill is too imba. Very very very hard to kill, especially for skill users like Tinker, Zeus, Akasha, etc.
    In fact I already used sonic wave on him and still alive? WTF!?
    Then after that he starts chasing me and kills me.

    just shut up already, we knew the fact long time ago that dota is already out of date. so the map as well, and for person whose said imba, you need more experience (like illusion, illusion take more damage than the real heroes).

    aghanims ideas share

    1. Magina - improves AOE and drains remaining mana
    2. Davion - summons 2 extra small dragons when using ulti
    3. Azwraith - immediately produces two illusions when attacked by a skill
    4. Bane Hollow - increasing senses temporarily revealing all enemy heroes location on the map
