Buff Slark. I started playing Slark before I cared about things like stats per level, but holy shit Slark's stat gain is just abysmal. Essence Shift is supposed to make up for the lack of agility, but that leaves two stats still tragically underdeveloped, and mana is a problem for Slark as late as like level 16 if you're playing really aggressively. Shadow Dance is honestly not very useful past like half an hour because you just don't regen enough in that short time limit to be able to rejoin a fight afterwards. He has no carry potential without hefty snowballing early.

Nerf PA. Decrease Blur chance and switch map invisibility to its old effect. Increase Phantom Strike mana cost. Decrease level 1 and 2 ult percentages even more. PA should be a hard carry, not a pubstomp.

Delete Phoenix because no one plays it anyway. Phoenix is honestly pretty useless if it can't offlane, and at least at our level pubs (without a 5-stack), there's almost never an offlane. Mid Phoenix should lose almost any matchup, and support Phoenix is worse than support Nyx because at least Nyx has a stun.

Buff Windranger

You'd think she'd be much more effective considering her range is one of the highest, if not *the* highest, in the game, but her damage output is terrible unless she's got at least four items. Shackleshot is a horseshit stun due to the fact it's so hard to land, and Powershot is nearly useless late game.

Nerf Vengeful Spirit

She's way too powerful early game. The stun nuke, when landed in ideal position, is pretty much a kill every time.

(For real though, none of my top three could handle a nerf. They all could use buffs so I had to make up a nerf.)

Delete Phoenix

While Phoenix is super fun to play, he just doesn't fit in teamcomps very well at all. None of his spells are particularly useful on their own, they require somebody else to do the bulk of the work.

FUCK this game. I am so happy with how I played and how well it turned out but it infuriated me because I got constantly harassed by Centaur ALL FUCKING GAME. We had like no early game at all so they stomped up pretty hard, and while I was doing exactly what I was supposed to do like farming and pushing lanes, every time some shit happened, Centaur would bitch at me. need a gank? "Medusa you nab" (I still don't fucking know what a nab is. I asked like 15 times I swear.) "lol medusa farm nab" "medus not push loooooooooooooool. darling nab" These are all real quotes I took from the game. I started off really well but of course they were doing much better early. I eventually told him if he needs a gank, call TA, because I need farm and can't really gank early. still bitching at me. Menawhile centaur is doing horrendous job at the whole fucking game. I get a 24 minute Linkens sphere. I am still a nab. Head into jungle. he dives a 2v4 dies and calls me a nab again. Still don't know what it means. I get mithril hammer and precede to get 3 straight triple kills in three straight teamfights. so I fire back "wheres medusa?????" (this is something he was saying earlier every time he dived fights) calls me a "diva nab" Again, I still don't know what that means.


Anway, 15 kills later, I am soloing their entire team and pushing middle by myself. Only hero to give me trouble was Anti Mage, since his mana burn hurts my ability to use shield. Basically won the game myself which insane amounts of freefarm. One of my best Medusa games ever. Centaur finished as one of the worst in the game, and on the winning team because of course. I liked my build too. Skadi and Mjollnir are good together because they aren't both active at the same time. I bought daedalus just because I could. it was the final push and I had the money.


I couldn't believe after completely taking over the game, centaur was still trying to harass me. There was one point where we were in their jungle, me and centaur, and all five of them came on us. I killed 3 of them pretty fast, and the cnetaur purposely ditched me and left me to get killed just so he could say "lol couldnt even solo them all nab" One of my three deaths was because I couldn't finish the...probably 15% of HP the last two heroes had, all so that piece of shit could pretend to prove his shitty point. Fuck I was so mad. TA and PA called him out on it as well.

Buff Dragon Knight.

DK is just really weak at first few levels. Sure that's kind of the point of a carry (you need to really get that farm) but he just doesn't look like the type who would have 49 damage at level 1. Plus, he's pretty squishy for a strength hero. Add in the fact that he's one of the slowest heroes of the game makes him an easy target. What I would do is add a little bit of damage (like around 52-55 sounds good) and maybe HP/armor.

Nerf Windranger.

To be completely honest, I think Windranger is already balanced. Shackleshot doesn't need to be buffed. A lot of you complain about how hard it is to land it but I mostly find myself landing a good Shackle about 75% of the time. It all comes down to positioning yourself and kinda predicting where the enemy's going. If anything, this should be nerfed as landing a good shackle with two heroes could easily turn the tables. My only other nerf idea is WR with Maelstorm. Even under Focus Fire, it still procs the chain lightning. I just think it's really unfair to let that in since it is an attack modifier.

Delete Templar Assassin.

I sometimes think that TA is OP. Her Refraction and Meld give her so much survivability and her Psi Blades lets her spill lots of damage with the right items. TA's snowball potential is strong and if she gets so much farm heading to mid-game, it's almost gg.

Here's a fun game: Describe your most hated teamcomp to face ever. We're talking the kind of team that, if the opposing team picked it, you'd just ask yourself "Just how bad would a few games of low prio be?". Legit teamcomps, too. Assume they're playing these heroes competently.



Safelane Carry - Axe Posted Image
This team assumes Axe is playing the creepskip aggro trilane Axe. The one that mows down your creeps without a scratch as he pummels your tower and you either get eaten alive by his creeps or try to fight him in which case he'll just waltz right up to you and spin in your face for half your health. The one that starves your trilane of everything it should rightfully have. The one that makes you regret picking a melee hero because you can't deal with this shit and you can't leave him alone because he will straight-up do it again and again until he leads the charge at 15 minutes, blinks into your team trying to stop his deathball, and spins like a fucking helicopter as he mows through your team with 2000 health to spare. I hate you Axe. I hate you so much.

Support 1 - Omniknight Posted Image
Even if you do try to scratch Axe during laning this motherfucker puts the heals on him and if you weren't already dead from standing next to Axe you sure as hell are now. Repel is a nightmare skill (seriously who has diffusal as a core that's not named Riki/PL/Naga/4-slotted Spectre) for anyone - in this case yeah it's Axe who does the opposite of shying people away from him but holy shit that might as well be a 20 second BKB you slap onto some asshole and your team's supports cry because what the fuck can they do to that. Guardian Angel - yeah, that's also a good skill I guess. And by "good" I mean "second shutdown", not to mention it's AoE and if it was hard to land before Aghs makes it GLOBAL as well as protecting towers. And he does nothing besides stop your team from actually taking people out, barely any offensive capabilities outside of the rare Purification bait, but it works and it's so annoying to deal with.

Support 2 - Lich Posted Image
Lich is boring as fuck to play and he's hellish if they know what they're doing. He starves your lane and just harasses with blast after blast. It never ends. He just keeps using it and just keeps eating all of his creeps and that pushes the lane to his side so he can eat his creeps closer to his tower. That ult is terrifying and it completely turns teamfights around if it's ignored, particularly when he seems to pull an Aghs out of thin air and suddenly he launches the ult and priority number 1 is to get that shit to stop bouncing, which requires a good 4-5 seconds of scattering during which time his team can just collapse on you one by one. It's like having a walking ultimate hero but also takes so much from you in the early game that his game impact goes beyond that powerful, powerful ult.


Mid - Death Prophet Posted Image
Facing DP in lane is futile. If she's halfway decent and her Q key is working she hits level 5-6 and spams Crypt Swarm for basically no mana to obliterate your creeps, gets perfect CS, chunks anyone standing within a 500-range radius of their ranged creep, and rams her creeps into you or your tower. If you try to roam or leave she takes your tower and then she'll be off to another lane to spam more Qs for 1/3rd of your health. Later on you're only going to get rid of her in a 5v1 situation because she's so fucking fast and you can't beat her 1v1 with a jillion ghosts swarming you. Top it off with an AoE silence and the fact that she only really needs (and wants) to build tank items and the only way to actually stop her is chaining disables/silences before she can skillfully mash her R key and net 3 kills and your next tower and a half.

Offlane - Bristleback Posted Image
I think Bristle's a really strong hero and the buffs to Quill Spray's maximum stack damage last patch made me do a double-take. He's kinda like Axe but in reverse, where he doesn't even need to autoattack you, just keeps walking next to you with a drinking bird pounding his W key. And you try to fight him and he just turns his back and runs in circles pressing W over and over as his passive releases MORE quills and then you realize "shit these quills are hurting I'd better GTFO" but no, he's Sonic the hedgehog at this point and he spams his goo and stacks MORE quills on you. "It's cool I have Magic Wand" you think as you add a measly 200 health and he smashes you and shoots more quills. You can't hope to kill him and you can't leave him alive. He's strong all game and he's ridiculous.

Safelane - Phantom Assassin Posted Image
broken hero plz nerf




Support - Disruptor Posted Image
not many supports really annoy me but disruptor kinda does idk




Roamer* - Techies Posted Image
dumb hero; remove from game




Mid - Pudge Posted Image
only satanists and puppy kickers play this hero




Offlane - Broodmother Posted Image
most objectively broken hero in the game but no one plays her so it's usually ok



*Yeah, you shouldn't just roam with Techies, but that's not how like anyone ever actually plays them, so.

Juggernaut
Witch Doctor
Disruptor
Bristleback
Brewmaster

Nobody ever picks Bristleback in pubs for some reason, but he's a ridiculously strong hero early. Actually this entire team is ridiculously strong early. Brew's ult at level 6 needs to be rebalanced because it's absurd and he's basically unkillable until late game when in his ult. Juggernaut's ult is ridiculous. It's counterable, but ridiculous. Disruptor probably gives us the most problems of any support. I hate Witch Doctor. This team has three melee cores but I couldn't think of a ranged one that I feel really gives us problems.

My most hated teamcomp to face ever is any game with Pudge. Fuck him and everybody that plays him. They are truly terrible people that deserve have a chicken spit ran through their mouths and out their assholes while they forever overcook in Hell.
