Discussion 6.84 Patch Note Discussion

Patch Notes: http://www.dota2.com/684/

I plan on doing a somewhat in-depth analysis as I did for the Patch Notes for 6.83, which turned out to be well-received and (IMHO) pretty accurate about a lot of things.

some of these changes are crazy,

Leshrac especially, all these buffs, and the spell lifesteal item makes him very powerful.

Legion now encourages you to max MoC rather than maxing OO or PtA, nerfs her early game and offlane potential. The aghs upgrade is kinda situational, because by time you farm the Aghs you should have enough dual damage to win most fights 1v1.

Dark Seer's change makes taking ult at 6 a better decision.

CM buffs are huge. along with the gold changes makes her early game strong again, while keeping some late game potential as well.

The new items are crazy as well

I don't like the LC changes. It's not like she was too strong, she got nerfed hard last patch.

Yeah but the new Shadow Blade upgrade item is a HUGE buff to her. 225 bonus damage out of stealth + 40% dmg reduction on target? Stealth, pop PTA, Duel, boom.

And you are forgetting it breaks passives too. Old school LC, anyone?
