Found here.

This was supposed to be the balance patch, but I think some people at HiRez must be drunk.

Ares' ult was weak enough, and now it was nerfed.

Artemis' waveclear was already bad compared to other hunters, and so were her mana costs. Now they're right back to being terrible, while Anhur can waveclear with a single ability at level 7, while having a bigger manapool and lower costs.

Chaac is still invincible.

But Zeus and Merc got a nerf, and that's good. Qin's are no longer a lifesteal item, but I can see some people skipping Heartseeker and going straight for Sais, then lifesteal.

Overall, I am pretty unhappy about this patch.

Golden Wukong before golden Hel is an outrage, in my opinion. :(

Yeah, a lot of people were not happy about the patch on the stream as well.

I get that Domination was not the most trafficked game mode, but removing it from casual play is going too far. Unless they put it back, the Athena guide that I just started is on hold (because it was on her role in Domination).

The God changes are miniscule and there were no necessary nerfs (except for Zeus and Merc, and even those weren't great).

The item changes weren't worthwhile, either.

Overall, the only good things I found in this patch were the Titans, and Stargazer Noobis.

When chaac came out I really liked him, i like how he looked, his alt skin his kit, everything, but i didn't wan't to pick up a broken bruiser thats going to be nerfed soon.......does this mean HiRez is going to keep him the way he is? cuz if so ima feel real bad about playing chaac =/

Qins Sais nerf is interesting...I love lifesteal and will miss it as an assassin/ADC. But now I'm pretty much going boots, sais, bloodforge (because the Sais give enough Attack speed for it to be smart), malice, deathbringer, X

Otherwise, the nerfs to the gods are so weird and underwhelming. Zeus's survivability always sucked, that's not his problem. Dodging Chaac is a little easier but it's not the problem. They nerfed Ares and Artemis for some moronic reason.

My summary is "what"
