The constant 50+ min games I keep getting now have started to get on my nerves getting to the point where I'm just going to pick NP/TC every game...

Also every game someone on your team should build Necro 3 since it pretty much op now.

[Astral]

Necronomicon has always been a fairly overpowered, if underused item. Once upon a time, they used to let everyone build it... until some team built 5 of them and curb stomped the other one into submission.

You don't see it very often likely due to the bit of micro it requires, but eh. It falls into and out of favor quickly, and is rarely seen in bot/lower level games.

It wasnt being used becouse it can be countered by a 2000 gold item, and not the "your item isnt so good now" counter, i mean the now im using the item against you counter. Im sure we will start to see it a lot, even in pubs with shitty micro, it just needs to hit the pro scene first and the the pubs will go and copy.

Heh... well, my impressions so far of other good things that have changed:

1. Pugna stronk.
2. Undying mega stronk. 40 second decay at level 1.
3. Nightstalker stronk.
4. Alchemist stronk. 100HP/s wtf is that.
5. Beastmaster more fun to play.
6. Crystal Maiden OP. Press R win game.
7. Viper stronk.
8. Lion OP. 2.5 second instant ranged stun at level 1 wtf.
9. Luna stronk.
10. Venomancer mega stronk. Super long range slow + dot for ultimate lane winning. Guy is insane.
11. Veil of Discord is good.

I think the alch change is actually a nerf.

[umiman]

It's 100hp/s. ONE HUNDRED HP PER SECOND! Even Slark's ult only heals about 40 hp/s and that's on a super squishy hero. Screw losing 750 bonus hp. 100hp/s is crazy.

Even 50hp/s is nuts. He can outheal armlet at level 6. Attacking him at level 6 is essentially trying to kill someone who has heart regen active. Attacking him at level 16 is trying to defeat someone with two and a half heart actives on if they stacked.

You can see people fountain diving with him no problem as with his ult on he basically only takes about 30 dps from the fountain.

Laning with him now is so silly too. He essentially becomes a really tanky Slark with an AOE stun. Every 14 seconds he heals back to full hp. Goddamn it feels good.

[Simmura McCrea]

He's more susceptible to burst than he was, but if you don't kill him he's going to come back and clean up.

[ukulele]

You need to remember he already had 60hp/s +750 hp before the patch, a super hard carry like alch can rely on lifesteal and pure dps to survive, i think the 750 are more useful, but i guess its a matter of tastes.

I have been waiting for the other two spirits for so long now, this is the best! I had thought Legion Commander would be next, considering that more of her was finished, but this is so much better than LC. Ember Spirit is by far my favorite design out of any hero.

[frostshotgg]

Legion commander actually has a few skills already coded into the game and stuff.

[Stworca]

Storm spirit finally doesn't look like a slumbering pile of shit? I'm all for it!
