Plague Rider
- Movespeed reduced from 320 to 315
- Cursed shield Armor lowered from 3/6/9/12 to 2/4/6/8
- Cursed Shield no longer applies a Movespeed Slow, just Attackspeed
- Cursed Shield now applies to all attacks, not just Melee



so now he counters range carries extremely good aswell? thats just fucking dumb

wow the magebane alt avatar is overpriced
doesn't even have a new voice

i might still buy it tho
too bad it isn't premium

wtf

it wasnt just the armor that was imba

the slow is just about as good imo

late game it would be insane

well it doesnt slow ms anymore but still

slow attackspeed vs carries is always good,

it's like "yeah lets nerf the hero that have had highest win % through the entire game lets see..... we slightly adjust his armor to little less armor we take away the ms slow and nerf the base ms of 5.... but hmmmm then he seems to shitty lets give him a buff so he is good versus range carries aswell!!!"

the MS nerf is basically nothing

he's still very very fast

and he still has the ability to infinite harass and do the most damage in a teamfight without any items

other than the retarded plague rider change i think this was actually a good patch

many needed changes,

slight nerf on kraken/tort/silu/hb
cost increased at bulwark
slight tablet nerf
frostwolf change



so for the first time in a long time, s2 did something good

dont like frostwolf change that much

but others seem good

i think the fws change was much needed, from 30>20 on range and slight stats change so it doesnt give as much agi which is pretty fine to me

for competitive is good i guess

but in general gameplay melee heroes i feel already have a huge advantage

stout shield + hatchet + better attack animations / damage and overall can dish out way more damage than ranged carries

ofc range will rape in competitive because of positioning and teammates not being dumb
