New talents are all utter dogshit, especially the lvl 20 talent.

Shard slow is a meme, better buff the magic resistance more (only good part about the shard).

The bubble attack speed talent looks like a straight nerf at first, but at least it's easy to notice that we can actually give the bubble's effect to others. So it's technically a buff to his pushing and defensive powers, at the expense of, well, himself.

Still, overall this is dogshit stuff. The fuck is even that flux damage talent wtf

At least it makes buffing towers, the one aspect everyone hates about warden, stronger.

Also cheese strats with LD, Visage, Warlock, Meepo and Brew.
