The bad news: no new hero this week

The good news: επιτέλους άρχισαν να βελτιώνουν αυτό το κακάσχημο UI.

Το καινούριο UI:

Άμεση σύγκριση με το παλιό:

Καινούρια icons για τα αντικείμενα:

Changelog:

GAMEPLAY

- Added Brewmaster to Captain's Mode

- Fixed non-hero units like Spirit Bear breaking smoke of deceit.

- Fixed Burning Spear counter being reset by BKB.

- Fixed illusions stealing Magic Stick/Wand charges from the owner.

- Fixed a new bug with Riki's Blink Strike causing it to not attack right away.

- Fixed attack FoW reveal to happen when an attack fires off, rather than when your animation starts.

- Fixed bug that would sometimes cause move commands or abilities to execute at odd times.

- Fixed bug where DotaTV director would stop directing in the last minutes of the game.

VISUALS

- Heroes will no longer lose their shadows.

- Item Icon have been redesigned

[We plan to continue update these over the next few weeks, please give us your thoughts in this forum (]Item Icon Feedback

AUDIO

-Some heroes will now call out to allies they encounter in the field during the early phases of a game.

UI

- New in-game HUD.

- Fixed control groups breaking in the case where a hero has unit sharing enabled and another hero tries to control group one of the summons.

- Fixed a case where casting an ability to control a unit (ie. Chen's Persuasion), then querying the unit before the ability fired would not end up with the unit in a selected state and the abilities would not be usable.

- Fixed damage done to player-controlled units not showing up in the combatlog

BOTS

- Bots can call out "top missing!" etc if an opponent goes away during the laning phase.

- Bots are now more likely to use the Side Shop. They will hold off purchasing items if they think they'll be able to get them from the Side Shop soon, and are more likely to actually walk there to pick them up.

- Bots no longer forget/ignore units that are reincarning.

- Bots will now use couriers that are holding their items, even if the courier is currently returning to base.

- Bots will only use couriers that are idle in base, so they shouldn't grab couriers as soon as they stop moving in, for example, the secret shop.

- When a bot dies, if it had a courier en route, it will send the courier back to base.

- Juggernaut is now more likely to use Omnisliash in teamfights, particularly when he thinks he can get all slashes on heroes.

- Bots will no longer purchase items during the hero pick phase of the game.

- Bots will no longer use any of their abilities on Passive difficulty.

- Made Windrunner bot slightly more likely to use Powershot when ganking, and less likely to use Windrun for non-panic retreats.

- Fixed bug that, under certain hero combinations, could cause lane selection to thrash.

- Improved the Team Roam behavior, they should no longer clump up and get stuck, and should deal with any creeps attacking them.

- Increased bot sensitivity to human pings for pushing and defending.

- Increased range at which a non-carry bot will defer last-hitting to a carry bot. Non-hard-carries will now also defer to hard carries.

Έτοιμος και ο Phantom Lancer!

Changelog:

GAMEPLAY

- Added Phantom Lancer!

- Fixed being able to use ping to identify illusions.

- Fixed bug where we wouldn't always upgrade couriers in order of creation.

- Fixed potential dispel threshold being calculated after damage reduction rather than before (fixes stuff like Bloodrage not dispeling potions).

- Fixed being able to blink if you became rooted after you started casting.

- Fixed unit conversion spells (Enchant, Persuasion, etc) not removing existing debuffs properly.

- Fixed Searing Arrows not stacking with Eye of Skadi.

- Fixed Satyr firing Shockwave onto smoked/invisible heroes.

- When the courier returns items to the stash, items owned by the other team are now dropped on the ground.

- Fixed Spirit Bear teleporting far away from you with Return (causing it to get stuck in trees sometimes).

- Attacking units now follow their target and then resume attack orders after getting disarmed.

- Updated attack animation for Spectre, with more impact on hit frame.

UI

- Tranquil Boots regen is now displayed on the HP bar.

- Clicking "No Courier" opens the shop with the courier item selected.

- As spectator, clicking courier button now queries the courier for the current query unit's team.

- Fixed creepstats drawing for all units when spectating.

- Fixed missing shared cooldown on the first use of an item.

- Fixed a case where the cooldown swipe on buffs was not initialized and rotated backwards continuously.

- Fixed top bar timer not initializing

- Broadcasters can now draw lines in the world.

BOTS

- Bots now use their defense mode desire to determine when to use Glyph, rather than having an independent calculation for it.

- Bots will no longer use items or abilities when they are individually disabled.

- Bots now switch out of "early game" when either team becomes powerful, rather than just when the opposing team does. This prevents situations where one team is roaming and pushing and the other team is still trying to lane.
