Has to be the single best gank support in the game. The stacking slow from her web thing is fine, but it seriously needs to do less damage, or be considered magic and be able to be dispelled or removed by Omniknight's bubble. I've never seen an Omniknight get rolled so hard before just by Arachna humping him while someone else beats down on him.

She has no defensive abilities. At all.
It's a goddamn ranged scout.
AKA, Drow with a better Ultimate.
Kill it with fire.

Arachna isn't TERRIBLE, people just don't know how to play her. She's a very situational pick, but she can control who gets killed in teamfights pretty easily if she has good positioning.

She is overpowered in the hands of a good player. A bad player though, easiest thing to kill.

her magic armour buff is so situational and noticeable, the big buff symbol needs to go
Change her ulti and make her magic thing passive.

I'd say that her second skill is defensive.
I would say that Drow is better though. The ultimate means she is less itemdependent/better DPS, and Silence >>> that crappy carapace. Arachna's ultimate is situational at best; you don't actually need an extra slow. The aura doesn't help much due to her average DPS.

imo she is more like a viper oriented version,
so if u know how to play him , then u're close to know how to use/ and deal arachna

Arachna is a bad version of trax/viper, would take either over arachna anyday + both look way better aswel.

It's fine... says the guy with a 0.5:1 kill ratio (me).
It's all fine and dandy that it has a snare, but it gets a few more armor with its second skill (weak'ish). The third skill is fine and I think it's a weak ulti relative to other good ones out there.
Where's the problem?
- She doesn't have speed, stun, silence, spike capabilities...

lol.. well Arachna is my favorite hero.. and I would say its closer powered more than its underpowered I wish the ultimate was a little better though.. If you solo middle then you should do good the whole game with the early advantage and theres really no one who can beat you at middle if you play properly.. if you fight thunderbringer/pyro or someone then go for magic armor and web instead of web and damage.

i dont think her ult needs a change...
and the magic armor, could be less and passive, also...
Passive , but LESS... cuz.. you dont realize... that the skill leaves the hero with almost 100% magic reduction when activated... this is wtf..

So you are basically complaining that Omni is being killed by 2 heroes ? lolz
