Dota 2 Patch 7.36b notes: All buffs, nerfs, and changes

The big updates to Dota 2 continue to roll in with Valve pushing Patch 7.36b in the late evening of June 5. On the docket for this update is a wide range of adjustments to Facets, with plenty of nerfs and buffs included for both items and heroes.

Much like 7.36a last fortnight, Valve remains committed to balancing Dota, and given how big Patch 7.36 was, we knew it would take a couple of patches before things began looking balanced. We’ll see what sort of a mark 7.36b leaves on the meta in the coming days.

Here’s everything included in Dota 2 Patch 7.36b.

Dota 2 Patch 7.36b overview

Valve sweeps Hero Facets with massive adjustments

Now the wider 7.36 update has had time to settle, Valve has noted the overall strength and weakness of each hero’s Facets and has begun its case-by-case adjustment. 71 Facets have had their numbers tweaked, with some even getting massive reworks altogether.

It’s no surprise the Dotabuff S-tier Facets have been nerfed, while heroes stuck in the mid-30-percent win rate range have got significant buffs. One such hero is Batrider, who statistically had two of the worst Facets, according to 7.36a charts. Here’s hoping today’s buff for the Arsonist Facet gives Bat mains a chance.

Axe chopped down after absurd win rate spikes

Patch 7.36a helped bring many heroes who had sprinted ahead back in line, but one pesky offlaner remained a monster on the map—Axe. Almost every player opted into his One Man Army facet, which boosts Strength based on his armor as long as he is alone on the map.

This proved way too strong, so Valve has begin reducing the Strength bonus when an ally approaches as opposed to a lingering effect. It’s also now possible to use items or abilities to Break this, canceling the bonus Strength. Other nerfs include less permanent armor per kill and a rescaled bonus armor amount after using Berserker’s Call.

Forced Movement, Knockback now clearly defined

The devs have also clearly defined the difference between “Forced Movement” and “Knockback” effects in the game. Forced Movement covers most abilities that affect a target’s position on the map, while Knockback specifically mentions a push or pull effect that has a fixed distance. Valve has included a full list of the abilities now classed as Knockback effects in their full Patch 7.36b notes here.

Below you’ll find every main item and hero change with Dota 2 Patch 7.36b, now live and in-game.
