Nix named the biggest imba of patch 7.41c

Alexander “Nix” Levin called Kez the biggest imba of patch 7.41c in Dota 2 thanks to the hero’s incredible flexibility, ability to fit different playstyles, and massive potential in the carry role.

The streamer talked about this during a Twitch broadcast

“Kez is imba. I stopped launching Dota since his release, but I understand that right now I would enjoy playing carry. I’d happily pick Muerta and Kez. You can play a hundred games on Kez. Such a fun hero. A lot of buttons, potential to solo carry, outplay and play differently every game. Kez feels like the perfect hero for me. Perfect for my style and mindset. I would be happy

I know you can play him mid, but it’s not the same. I think he’s way stronger as a carry. I know he can counter Invoker, but honestly I barely see him, plus there are more effective heroes. Yesterday I played against Kez. Yeah he’s strong once he gets items, but it feels like hes very easy to beat in midlane. He doesn’t do the things a midlaner needs to do right now”

Nix noted that the hero has massive potential, although he also requires a lot of skill to control properly. According to him, many players believe Kez fits better as a midlaner, but in reality the hero is much more valuable as a carry. He also mentioned that Kez can deal with other strong heroes quite easily, even if he is not as powerful in mid as some other characters

Nevertheless, the streamer believes that Kez is almost the perfect hero for carry players who are able to master him properly.
