DOTA PATCH 7.41 REVIEW BY GOD

**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
Everybody welcomes, oh, I just scared this shit out of my cat. Sorry, Habibi. I'm sorry, Habes. Anyway, so Patch came out, right, Zach?

**Zach** (0:11)
Yeah, I've heard it said.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:15)
It's been said, it's been posted even, and it has happened.

**Zach** (0:19)
The streets are shouting.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:20)
The streets are shouting. They're saying, where's our Patch review, Fourth Spirit? We know you have so much to say about this, and Zach, I'll tell you, it's hard. The hardest thing about doing all this, Zach, is figuring out what not to say, because boy, do we want to say a lot, don't we? But we can't. So we have to choose our words wisely and get through this path.

**Zach** (0:39)
Sure don't want it to be four hours long.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:42)
No, exactly. All right. So first things first, Zach, first first thing you read, facets removed from the game. What was your reaction to that one?

**Zach** (0:51)
I think I heard like a. You know, like the party horn sound effect. Yeah, I think, you know, yeah, no, no, no, no, no. Like like the little kazoo kind of party party horn thing.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:03)
Yeah, I got you.

**Zach** (1:04)
I think I heard sort of like that. I don't know. I mean, it's kind of funny because it's like a meaningless patch note without the context of what they're actually doing. So that's fine.
I don't know, I. I mostly just disagree with things that I saw online where people were saying like, oh, facets were dumb because 90 percent of the time, there was just like a decided correct hero or decided the correct one on your hero. And that was both not true and also like not actually. A problem, if it was.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:38)
Yeah, that's this incredibly lazy analysis. Yeah.

**Zach** (1:41)
Yeah, those are the people that think that time zone is worthless.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:45)
Right.

**Zach** (1:46)
And now I can't be proven wrong for liking times. Yeah, whatever. Yes, I'm excited to see what they do.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:55)
Yeah, facets going away, I like it. I think my favorite thing about it was like, you know, of course, we will never go to Reddit on our own volition, but I do like to see community reactions to things. And the fact that like the top three posts were all laughing, like just a different style of laughing, because it's just funny to read as the first patch note, that made me happy, because it is just an inherently funny patch note to read, I think. Anyway, I love it. I think it's good. It was a big, big, there's a lot of shit that got tested that probably wouldn't have made it in originally, like fucking Tinker being a healer. And that's actually kind of on his ags now, but at least he's not, at least Tinker is not healing you Elaine anymore. I think that's for the best, right? I think that's good.

**Zach** (2:41)
You're not getting four position Tinker.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:44)
Well, I mean, you might be just now it won't be a healer.

**Zach** (2:47)
Sure. Okay, got it.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:49)
Anyway, fastest remove from the game. Great. From what we can tell later, a lot of them either got worked into the hero or they got put on a shard or something like that, or they got just axed and the hero is nerfed now. But that's I think that's the main like general change, right?

**Zach** (3:05)
Yeah, I think the rest is just like UI stuff and kind of consistency things. Yeah, I will say there's a new cool icon for things that scale per level. Like an eight that scale per level.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:22)
Oh, yeah, it has like little arrows up and down.

**Zach** (3:24)
It's very well designed. It's the innate icon with like an air, a chevron on top of it.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:31)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I like this. Yeah, it's neat.

**Zach** (3:36)
Other than that. Oh, the the meeting point of the lane creeps being towards the off lane. I don't know where they land exactly, but I am rejoicing mostly just because I think it's really uninteresting that you could always like push the wave under tower immediately with aggro slash like, yeah, you know, the weird body block things you do to write.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:58)
And then that nerfed my counter to that, where you let them do that. Then you get your court, you're carried to level two and then you win the jungle war with that because they get on denied creeps under the tower because it's hard to deny a tower. But now that's gone, too. So, yeah. Cool.
