Topson discovered a bug that can turn Morphling into an overpowered hero until the end of the match

Topias “Topson” Taavitsainen discovered a bug that allows Morphling to gain a permanent damage boost until the end of the match. If the hero transforms into Earth Spirit, the buff remains even after death.

The two-time Dota 2 world champion demonstrated this during a livestream.

The player showed that when Morphling transforms into Earth Spirit, he gains a 2.5% damage increase for each unused Stone Remnant charge. Notably, the bug does not just grant this buff — it also remains on the hero until the very end of the match, even if the hero dies.

It is likely that Valve will soon pay attention to the issue and release a hotfix, but for now the bug allows the hero to become truly overpowered.

It is also worth recalling that earlier Stanislav “Malr1ne” Potorak harshly criticized Edgar “9Class” Naltakyan and refused to play with him.
