Rubick, Grand Magus
« on: May 02, 2011, 20:49 »
Hi everyone, I would like you to give me your opinion about this new hero. Is he balanced or not? How do you like his spells? And give some item suggestions (give a reason why that exact item).

Here is my opinion:
I actually think that he is pretty interesting. Spells are nice, especially his ultimate. I see many players are excited about it. I don't know what items to build, I saw people building hood of defiance.

Thank You

As for me its very cool hero... may have big input in strategic games... but... its not balanced at all.
It has to much mana... its mana never ends!!!!
And this chain spell has way to big dmg!
Moreover... magus is moving in very wierd way.. as for me its not natural at all. But good to have another fun hero to play with.

But to be honest - terrorblade was hero that changed most. From average non picked hero became imba killer. Thats true magus is imba but with abit of Icefrog's work and balancing it everything should be fine.

Rubik is designed for big team clashes : his ulti has a low CD, he can come into a fight, cast some AOE ulti he already stole, steal another AOE pwnage spell and cast it, and even do that again if the teamfight is not over yet...

He's like invoker in that way, he can cast MORE spells than other heroes. And if he knows when/what to steal, he's uber-dangerous.

Added his null field = he's the perfect anti-AOE-teams hero. Don't pick shaker or lich against this guy... He'll get pipe and laugh at you...

He would be balanced if that wasnt with that stupid chain nuke which has imba CD, manacost, damage, sideeffect, and range, which make him a superior hero in lane. And he has a nice attack animation, nice manapool, nice casting point, nice base damage...

His telekinesis is nothing special but a stun. Maybe you can use it to block enemies on cliffs, or to bring back a coward into the enigma's blackhole he managed to escape from.

This hero is a total joke. It was like "Hey i'm icefrog, I fucked up the last dota release so you'll just have to wait for Dota2 and give bucks to me and Valve".


But as far as I can remember, every new hero was overpowered with the new map release, and then hardly nerfed with the patch that followed.



+1 about TB, he's another icefrog's drug abuse.

a deadly disease make me laugh much.
happening to you ;D
but to topic as said Magus is overpowered and nerf is inevitable, but and that is imo nuke low cost/high dmg and chain, aura good for me maybe there will be spme balance but not much and ulty good and fun to me :) stun with elevation just for fun but handy ;)
as spoken of Roof I like him a lot maybe lost ward skill but improved healing in aura and globally in day his nuke-o-heal slow nice in gangs and in tri-lanes but over time loose strength, his invi boost and casting spells under tree cover faster moving is imba and ulty - some say nerfed some boost and make Roof more efficient imo boost cause in cost of same duration on all lvls but half cooldown so more handy in team fights and more impact on game
and TB I like him but I liked his previous version but it was hard to play but now is remade to take his place in dota matches
remaking of Slithice make me sad now is not so good imo but time shows the changes
and so on so many changes and imroves and nerfs time to waste to talk better to play and feel it on your own 8)
overall thumbs up to IF :)
