This play test gets better support and balancing than 99% of online games. As someone that used to play Overwatch, I'm all for it.

It is quite fascinating seeing how quickly they make changes to heroes from patch to patch at this stage of development. I was 100% sure that Shiv and Bebop would be buffed this patch because of all the complaining from people who main them, and equally sure Paradox and McGInnis would be nerfed. You can almost predict the changes before they happen because they're so often in line with the majority of feedback or the amount of clips people post of clearly stupid mechanics (Paradox AoE spam clips since the last patch, for example). The only thing I'm surprised by is that there were no changes to Vindicta, I thought for sure she'd receive some small nerfs again.

After two decades of his work with Dota Icefrog being on top of balance like this in Deadlock doesn't surprise me at all. I'm only surprised McGinnis wasn't hit harder.

Feel like this is a better way for bebops stacks to work. Don’t lose them on death but you only get them if you damage a hero that dies. No more just spamming them on minions.
