#2 Bounty Runes

Since the addition of Bounty Runes and their ability to grant gold to the entire team, Dota was never the same.

These runes, which serve as a gold bonus for the entire team, have become a map objective other than the towers and buildings. There are smoke ganks and fights breaking out just to contest the runes and give one team an edge over the other.

The whole concept of having to push your own safelane just before the five minute mark is all due to the runes. Creeps being farther away from your tower can enable your support or you to contest the runes from the offlaners.

However, this concept has been there for a long time and I think Ice Frog will definitely change bits and pieces to stir things up in the Gold Rune department. For example: Spawning runes at different times, spawning runes randomly at one of the two spots.
