Icefrog. Quit developing.

[Smokey - Supp]

How has this dude still got a job. The man who literally cant balance ANYTHING or ANY HERO and either just completely runs the hero into the ground and makes it useless during a patch or makes it completely over powered and picked every game. Example Aghs change on Ancient Apparition, now it removes cooldown of chilling touch (90 mana use per attack)

What kind of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ who has never played Ancient apparition thinks that AA will ever have enough mana regen to use the aghs or justify that change, his ultimate is now completely useless due to it no longer having an aghs upgrade. that used to make it somewhat effective. To have the mana to even constantly use chilling touch you would need a bloodstone + 1 other mana regen item, making your hero to squishy and throwable to even justsify thinking of picking.

Icefrog logic, this hero already isnt picked by pros, I know they totally dont pick this hero because he is over powered as hell, .that must be it, let me nerf him into the ground then. No Icefrog you belligerent ♥♥♥♥ knuckle, no one picks the hero because he NEEDS AN UPGRADE and NOT NERFING.


Icefrog, you single handedly kill dota more and more with every patch because of stupid, uninformed decision making by a moron who seems to think he knows dota but doesnt actually play it himself.

100% icefrog doesn't play pub dota at any ranking. if he did he would not do this ♥♥♥♥ every patch. he is a developer not a gamer, he probably would be rly bad at playing dota anyways, mby if he did he would get reported. disruptive behavior vs dota players trying to play a fair balanced game but instead having to deal with OP ♥♥♥♥ and smurfs/boosters /ruiners every game. gg.

game i sbalanced around competitive and ALWAYS HAS BEEN, this is an ESPORT, not a kiddie game.

Simple explanation, game is balanced as rock paper scissors is balanced.

draft better than enemy team and have equal or superior mechanical skill, then win. exactly. it's a very complex rock paper scissors.

Many people are like "I play one hero, no matter what" this is how I'll get more MMR.
Well, nope. Actually, nope. I love seeing Crusader Phantom Lancer picked against enemy Earth Shaker or Axe, or Crystal Maiden, w/e, anything with huge AOE

I'm so glad these internet forum backseat balancers aren't in charge.

Ever hear what these people suggest as balance? Every TI would be nothing but the same 20 heroes over and over if they had their way. Having someone who actually has a clue do it makes the game much better.

Well, Let's be honest. Some heroes are quite unstopable when it comes to snowball, but, as we know, it's team effort to stop enemy that snowballs. And people tend to not knowing that, I mean, tip of their nose is their horizon.

I decided to give up on dota, now i play for fun and for trolling purpose in ranked, waiting for a permaban.

I'd disagree with that personally, most heroes that are geared up to snowball are very tempo based and 1 or 2 mistakes getting punished will really throw the game, like Meepo for example. Heroes designed to stay ahead really suffer when they are even.
