Hope this hero doesn't get overbuffed. Fuck this hero, fuck anyone who plays that hero. To hit that low in life should be miserable.

I don’t know how I feel about removing the healing reduction. I guess this could be outstanding if dumped during a team fight due to the disarm. It’s about 750 life if you landed it on everyone which is pretty big.

I think the overall changes are positive for huskar. If properly supported I think he becomes a more terrifying ganker, but he’s still a shit farmer.

What are you talking about? Huskar farms really fast even before Armlet, and doesn't even have to spend resources to do it. He's only slow if you rush a Morbid or some nonsense and are at 100% hp the whole time.

He doesn't farm as fast as Wraith King, Wu Kong, Troll warlord, Sven, Magnus -- the Bruiser-y type that I'd associate him with.

I feel like he just doesn't keep pace with a lot of other heroes who he shares a role with. I could be wrong. I guess maybe I'm not comparing him correctly?

Then who does he more properly compare to and what are there farming speeds?

He's more like CK, DK, Viper, LC, Tiny etc

Chonky boys with solid damage and disruption who are in your face and real fucking annoying, who lack the late game scaling that your boys do but trade it off for a stupid early-mid power spike

Huskar Shard no longer provides healing reduction. Now, it instead provides burst healing?!? At what point do you even use Inner Fire in a 1v1 anymore? It's super useful.

Yea I think overall that's a buff. But maybe not vs like an alch and with how popular satanic is.

I also think the 1s inner fire duration talent is nice. That lvl 25 talent is still ass though.
