Valve buffed Largo in patch 7.40b making him even stronger

Valve unexpectedly buffed Largo in patch 7.40b, making an already strong support an even more confident pick in Dota 2 matchmaking.

This was reported on the official Dota 2 website.

Now the Catchy Lick ability pulls enemies from an even longer distance and health regeneration was also significantly improved.

At the same time the developers slightly nerfed Croak of Genius, now the reflected damage is applied only if the target is within 2000 range of the hero. However there is also a positive change, as the duration of the effect is no longer reduced by Largo’s own abilities.

In addition Valve buffed the level 20 talent, Catchy Lick damage was increased from +140 to +170 which is also a nice bonus for the hero especially if he is played as a core.

Recall that the developers unexpectedly released patch 7.40b, in which the current meta was significantly reworked.
