IceFrog introduced 6.50 in February. Rather than a few minor bug fixes and balancing, this map has come to shock the community. The amount of changes are so severe, that it will entirely change the metagame if used.
The amount of change in this map is a lot to swallow. Blink Daggers will not be seen as much, beastmaster and sand king may not be seen as much and jungling will drastically change. Adapting to 6.52 will be difficult and so far the reactions from the competitive scene have been mostly negative.
Although some of the alterations may seem drastic, many feel it was time for a change. We decided to hear from the pro's about their thoughts on 6.52. We asked them 10 questions about the new map.
Antworten von bekannten DotA-Playern zu diesen Fragen und allgemein zu 6.52 gibt's hier: Let's talk about 6.521. How much have you played 6.52 and what was your initial reaction?
2. How do you feel about the dagger nerf? Was it necessary?
3. Do you think you will draft heroes much differently now?
4. Would you like to see 6.52 used in league play?
5. What are your thoughts on the changes with the neutral spawns?
6. What are your thoughts about item muting and the inability to use enemy items?
7. Do you think backdoor should be allowed in league play now?
8. How do you feel about the added ban in -XL?
9. What are your thoughts on the changes with the flying courier?
10. What's the first hero that comes to mind, if I were to ask you to pick a hero that was never really drafted before that should be drafted now?
Ich persönlich finde es sehr cool, dass die meisten Spieler sagen, dass Ihnen die Version gefällt! Denn wenn es von denen keinen Support gibt, würde es auch für eine neue Stable schwer werden.
