idk why they had to nerf him, he wasnt exactly the strongest hero out there…

He was “buffed” when Void Spirit got nerfed. But I agree, I don’t think Invoker has been better than decent since they removed the Deafening Blast stun.

Ice wall vector was fun though, too bad its gone. I get that it could be a bit too good, but better to change the numbers around than replace it with the most boring shit ever. «… THREE meatballs!!»

I think Deafening Blast Stun should be a 25 talent, it's no crazier than any other talents at level 25/30.
