I obtained to look at (and even forged) a few of the Worldwide qualifiers and there are various attention-grabbing new concepts to discover. A few of them appeared extraordinarily depending on good teamplay and excessive ranges of coordination, whereas some will be simply utilized in pubs. In the present day we’re going to take a look at the latter group
The concept with the bottom ability and coordination stipulations. 0-3-2-0 Witch Physician is an absolute menace in the course of the laning stage and an enormous early recreation teamfight contributor. Combining good right-click harm with an enormous AoE harm and maintain skill you get presumably probably the greatest babysitter helps within the recreation who can 1v2 from minute zero, making a free lane for his carry.
Even when he dies, there’s Gris-Gris, which is able to permit him to maintain up networth-wise with most different heroes. Meaning he will get to play extraordinarily aggressively, although attempt to be sensible about it. There may be zoning and there’s feeding and the perfect case state of affairs is 1v1 trades, the place the second enemy hero in lane always has to decide on between final hitting a creep, or committing to assault you.
In a while this Witch Physician transitions into a way more basic hero with respectable, if unreliable management and a whole lot of harm from Loss of life Ward. Be sure you perceive when precisely it’s best to cease making an attempt to play frontline alongside your offlaner. Voodoo Festeration offers an honest quantity of maintain, however it doesn’t make you a “tank” previous minute ~12.
This new side was met with a whole lot of doubt from increased stage gamers. Dropping the flexibility to deal harm whereas centered appeared like a nasty concept on a hero that survives within the late recreation by therapeutic by way of random quill sprays. Seems, gamers simply wanted time to regulate and re-evaluate the best way to utilise this character the perfect.
The most important change is that Viscous Nasal Goo must be maxed out second. The concept behind Snot Rocket isn’t that you simply constantly stress the enemy into attacking your self, making use of Goo by way of passive procs. The concept is to be proactive and aggressive, getting on prime of precedence targets and lowering their armour by 27.
It really works wonders in excessive tempo drafts and probably the most success we’ve seen from this Bristleback is when he was performed as a carry and went for a tanky Vanguard into Aghanim’s Construct. The sport led to below half-hour and the enemy lifestealer actually couldn’t manfight Bristleback all through the entire recreation, even when the latter was going through him.
We’ve talked about this idea beforehand, as the thought is sort of easy: by maxing Energy on Darkish Seer, you may get a whole lot of worth by way of his Innate and Facet talents and make him an especially tanky, hard-hitting DPS monk.
What pushed the hero over the sting is the adjustments to 
Crimson Guard. Our preliminary concept was that Darkish Seer has to maximise his effectivity by constructing a whole lot of Energy objects, however seems Carry Darkish Seer works significantly better when performed in a typical Offlane method for the primary couple of things. And Crimson is presumably the perfect defensive merchandise proper now.
In a while you progress into extra right-clicking oriented purchases like 
Coronary heart of Tarrasque and 
Black King Bar. And, once more, due to how the hero works these two objects are, certainly, a few of the finest DPS right-clicking choices for late recreation scaling.
We’ve solely seen two areas get by way of half of their matches and but there are already tons of recent methods and ways gamers utilise on the highest stage of play. Dota is an extremely wholesome place in the case of the meta and total recreation enjoyment and there’s nonetheless a lot to discover.
Furthermore, we really feel like different, probably stronger areas may have much more concepts that can be utilized in your on a regular basis pubs, so keep tuned for extra Qualifiers meta highlights. Or share your individual findings we would have missed within the remark part under.
