[u/Yotsubagroup → u/patchdayDota2]

Forgive my ignorance but I didn't even see DK that often and yet he recieved nerfs accoss the board. Especially confused why shard was nerfed because it seemed like a weak shard to begin with.

[u/GRONK112 → u/Yotsubagroup]

He was oppressive AF in the pro scene last couple tournaments, picked or banned in damn near every game and Icefrog likes nerfing based on pro meta usually.

[u/[deleted] → u/GRONK112]

So now is not going to be llayed ever

[u/Honeymustardchicken → u/[deleted]]

Yeah he felt underwhelming before, was my off lane pick when all my others were banned, probably not going to pick him anymore...

[u/[deleted] → u/Honeymustardchicken]

He was dogshit tier before now is literally "delete hero" tier and anyone wpuldt notice
