Dota 2 Update: Patch 7.19d is here and here are all the Nerfs 

End of Riki's Reign?
End of Riki's Reign?

There’s a thing about Valve or should I say Icefrog, he doesn’t like to see us happy. Any hero that is dominating the scene, name it and it is nerfed. As we wait for the 7.20 patch here is another patch 7.19 which mainly focuses on nerfing heroes that are a bit popular in the pubs right now.

This patch again nerfed Grimstroke. Poor dude. He came in as Over Powered as eff. And He did get his fair share of nerfs and now again some more “balancing” for him.

There is pretty much no buffed heroes in the patch, however, Riki, Drow Ranger and few other heroes got nerfed. Valve is still working on patch 7.20 and they did say it might take some time which simply means Icefrog is careful about buffing any hero. The days of OD, then the days of the green heroes, then Grimstroke. He sure as hell being careful after all those nightmares and cancerous patched.
