why did you destroyed naga ?

[carl]

The new riptide change is so bad , is more like you need to focus or your ilusions to one hero and maybe u get a 3% dps increase . If you split your illusions you will be sad :(

On dotabuff naga lost 5% win rate ... The hero wasnt even that strong

[God Loves You]

Becasue all the Smurf and scripted heros that people have being absuing have been nerfed!

[AllDragonsAreDead]

The problem I have is that Naga doesn't work as described. Valve says that now Rip Tide executes every 5 hits. I tested it on demo, without illusions, hitting enemy and Rip Tide executed with 12th hit! It simply doesn't work as described by Valve. Rip Tide is pretty much useless because sometimes it executes maybe 3 times during a minute long fight. That skill is not strong. Its power was that it was executed often. Now it's useless, could as well be removed completely.

its a ♥♥♥♥ skill now and its more like a CK : stun and send your illusions to one hero ...wtf is this crap

Gorgc played a naga game and he was cursing all the time she does now so much less damage . He even had to ban a few 2k players who said she does same damage lol

[Prinny]

even the jungle creeps are buffed and she being nerf it takes more work to farm xd valve u mess it up

[MariusJenkins]

Good, Naga was dumb af last patch, nerf her into the ground...

[Red Field]

Eh? i think the talents make her Rip Tide way stronger too. Once after every 5th hit is insane especially when illusion attacks count towards the stack. its higher than just 17% chance as this is more comparable to a 20% chance. The talents adds 20 more damage and brings it down to 4 stacks on a target.

I think the main issue really is the gradual strengthening of creeps that get stronger and harder to kill over time which didn't happen earlier.

I also noticed the unmentioned change to her shard. Correct me if I'm wrong but just before the update, the shard song of siren only healed all allies for 5% for the entire duration. Currently it says it heals 5% per second for the entire duration - 30% more healing.

Naga is better now where she needs more speed. But she can farm faster by using the skills she has now. I don't feel random is a good way because too much random for multiple illusions seems like crazy spinning. If you know how to build attack speed with stable items like how players build for Juggernaut also, then you sure know what items good for Naga.

This is actually a huge buff. No longer do I have to rely on inconsistent RNG, now it's guaranteed every 5 or 4 hits for every illusion.

3 or 2 hits only if you build Echo Sabre for Naga with high-speed items. Besides, Echo Sabre is good at slowing down enemies also. Give more mana regen and hp also. Using the staff, Naga can use Illusions more frequently.

That's a very useless item for a relatively weak skill to invest on. Illusion-based heroes heavily rely on attribute items but above all else, the player's micro/macro ability. Naga Siren isn't for linear players who are accustomed to only pay attention on 1 unit. You need to be able to literally control every single illusions on any events if you want to be successful with her. That's how demanding her required skill set is, you don't just go press Q and/or Manta then have them all clicked on the same target.

[Fistraiser]

Guess you need to.find another.hero to.smurf with now xd

[Red Field]

Well she got a nerf now, triggers once after every 6th hit and enemies only take 1 instance of damage from Rip Tide if they get hit by multiple. Also its damage is reduced.

Orge creep stunning, kobold disarming, 3 skeletons spawn, mama burn by creeps... plus enemies rushing diffusal or orchid.

Nice mess. Hope alot of people quit and wait for a better patch.
