Is this S2's idea of balance?

[[S2]Idejder]

Sometimes it's better to not patch for a week or two and let the metagame at least settle a little bit before you change it again with another balance patch. If we just patched every other day, the competitive scene would be a mess since no one would ever get the time to actually sit down and figure out all of the little stuff we want them to.

We gather and keep detailed lists of issues as they arise and are going to patch again soon to address most of the ones we have come up with. Including Fayde, Engineer, Gauntlet, Rampage, Gladiator, Bubbles, and hopefully Nymph.

Some of the solutions might not seem all encompassing since they are all just small tweaks to existing mechanics and numbers, but never underestimate the power of small tweaks. They change big things.

On that same note, though, we do have a few partial and semi reworks in mind for heroes that we feel need them, they just will need a test patch to see their way into the game. That might happen for .8 or .9. I believe the next test patch will also include the next hero: Doctor Repulsor.

See Fayde vs Arachna.

Nothing is more disappointing than to see an indie developer let glaring imbalances rest for weeks at a time. What is keeping S2 from doing frequent balance patches? I don't know.

derp derp just auto atacking fayde and not moving great idea by newerth, he is a great player and everything but he made a mistake this match, losing a fight at mid early vs fayde giving her extra lvs and picking all heroes less then 550hp at the start great idea when you play vs fayde

JEE i don't know, could it be that they are working on the map editor?

Oh ya it is.

Obvious troll is obvious, fail troll is fail.

Nobody forced Arachna to tank Slice.

It's not that Fayde is imba, but that [LOAD] is imba

OP makes these posts every effing day with the same exact topic.

STFU already!

Thanks for the update S2!

That was bad play by arachna tbh. Who levels precision against fayde? It's either stats or magic resistance, also pretenders crown instead of a second duckboots would have worked wonders so she isn't the most squishy player in the ****in game...

BLOODHUNTER SO STRONG GOES MID AND WIN LANE VS ARACHNA WTF S2 BALANCE.

As for the OP, that arachna played terrible, if you can't even tell that, you're a bad player. On these early kills, PESTILENCE could have done the same because it was entirely Cull(which does same dmg/rank as Impale from pesti, even less in fact at low level because Impale is physical, and no slow). You don't see Pestilence solo mid that often though, because you can't usually reliably land Cull against a ranged hero unless you switch stance and use Burning shadow as your opening move for ranged stun.

Sounds like yet another week with no patch

Gimme dat storm
