Arteezy slammed patch 7.40, pointing out Valve’s mistakes

Artur “Arteezy” Babaev criticized patch 7.40 pointing out that Valve have problems understanding the carry role and advising the developers to seek outside help when it comes to balancing this position

He wrote about it on his X (Twitter) page

“Terrorblade -25% damage Phantom Lancer is dead Clinkz is dead Lone Druid is dead Spectre is dead but Timbersaw is still strong first-pick in every pub and competitive game Valve should outsource carry beta testing because they clearly don’t understand anything themselves”

The esports player noted that many carry heroes were heavily nerfed but the most problematic ones were left untouched According to him this issue needs to be addressed and balance changes should be handled by people who truly understand the role

At the same time most players were satisfied with the global update though many are still questioning why so many heroes ended up losing their aspects and when the developers plan to bring them back

It is also worth recalling that earlier Magomed “Collapse” Khalilov named his strongest hero in Dota 2
