4 Popular TI 7 Heroes that Dinerf in Patch 7.06f

For the first time, the MOBA DotA 2 game has a minor patch in the near future after The International 7 tournament was held. Minor patches are made in the form of a 7.06f patch. The previous tradition, the patch after The International will always be major. Reflecting on the popular heroes used in the TI 7 tournament, IceFrog and Valve gave some nerfs. Some heroes that are often used in TI 7 international tournaments have nerfs.

With the hero experiencing nerfs, players are expected to look at other heroes, and/or use other strategies in using the nerfed hero. There are several heroes that are considered to need to be nerfed. This is the popular TI 7 hero that Valve dinerfed on the DotA 7.06f patch.

Raigor Stonehoof The Earthshaker

The first nerfed hero was Earthshaker. This hero is the most popular hero used in TI 7 international tournaments. The use of this hero on TI 7 totals 71 times. Nerf is created at intervals using Fissure. The time lag is increased at every level except for the last one. This increase in lag time forces players who use Earthshakers to level up more before engaging in battles or ganks.

In addition to Fissure, the Enchant Totem had also been hit by a nerf which was applied to an increase in mana charge from before. This limits the spamming of this skill, which effectively brings the new Earthshaker to be fierce in the middle of the game. This spamming skill breaks the balance in the early game.

Ethreain The Lich

In the new minor patch, Lich suffered a significant nerf, despite only being played 44 times. However, because it has a high winrate, this hero gets nerfed. The Chain Frost skill in particular got a completely different makeover. In the latest patch, the mini stun contained in the Chain Frost skill is removed.

Rotund’jere The Necrophos

Necrophos is one of the core heroes who really helped Team Liquid in order to win the Aegis of Champions. The win rate of this hero is also quite high, therefore Necrophos is nerfed. Necrophos himself had a big nerf, now the Reaper’s Scythe skill has an average cooldown, which is 100 seconds at all levels. This hero also gets a big nerf for receiving more magic damage, thanks to an increase in magic penalty to -25% for the Ghost Shroud skill.

Nature’s Prophet

Nerf applied to Nature’s Prophet makes this hero more difficult to play. For Nature’s Prophet nerf applied to movement speed reduced from 295 to 290 and sight of Sprout flying reduced from 750 to 500.

That’s the latest game news about the popular hero TI 7 which Valve dinerfed on the DotA 7.06f patch. For more details, see the news on the Steam DotA 7.06f game patch update.
