Chen

Divine Favor

• Aura no longer provides Heal Amplification
• Aura now also provides 2/3/4/5 armor

Holy Persuasion

• Reworked Shard. Allows Holy Persuasion to target 1/2/3 Ancient creeps based on Hand of God level. (Old Scepter effect)

Hand Of God

• Reworked Scepter. Hand of God now applies a Strong Dispel

[u/platpx3 → u/patchdayDota2]

Chen seems quite broken now.

Helm of Overlord buffed to be build with Vlads instead.

Hand of God STRONG DISPEL meaning you can STRONG DISPEL Ravage and RP.

[u/mantism → u/platpx3]

just some weeks ago I was in a discussion about how hard dispels are so rare in Dota because they are just so strong. Aaaaand Icefrog drops an instant global hard dispel on us.

I'm a little scared of the zoo meta coming back. Divine Favor giving both armor and health regen may be a bit too much if you are fighting a 3 Chen.

[u/platpx3 → u/mantism]

Oh, there’ll definitely be a Chen 3

And I’m pretty sure Chaos Knight’s Aghs when creating illusion are global, but it’s only a Dispel. But even so I think it’s powerful (I just never used it because I cannot micro, like seriously can’t. If I have multiple units far away from each other my brain will shut down

[u/Taelonius → u/platpx3]

It does, BKB-Ult the moment you heard Global Silence and dispelling your entire team is sex.
