lod is for fun, lod is not a dota original

users choose skills and mix them

so lod can never be balanced

many skills have been banned until now

so nowadays lod is boring

 

nowadays rearm + phantasm is invincible, and its win ratio is more than 90%

will you ban it?

and then finally u will ban all skills

We can start with the fact that you play a broken ass game mode.

 

By default LoD mode you can only pick < 1 > ultimate, thus these super broken shenanigans are unable to occur in the first place.

 

And for your needs, you can avoid using the game mode that bans combinations.

 - Whichever that is.

 

And avoid "-extended balance" mode.

 - Which primarely tweaks some over abused gimmick picks to be less dominating in the majority of games.

 

And for disclosure, this is just meta.

People will find the most pub-stomp tactics there are and alternatively find the next one or a counter to the current most abused one.

These things will come and go in trends, either by community or developers to prevent stagnation.

 

If these things didn't get tweaked, your every game would still concist of endless waves of infernals auto pushing lanes to certain defeat/victory.

 - I imagine that gets old after a while, thus probably killing the community's intrest in the long run.

 

To answer your question: Probably, yes. All skills will probably be banned eventually.

 

Also for a final note, you can try other maps such as Dota IMBA or fuck around with other game modes to find something that suits you.

only 2 combos that counter rearm phantasm are:

 

1. sleight of fist + caustic

2. (very rarely seen) rearm + space orc ult

 

I agree that rearm phantasm should be banned - it's even more op than rearm eclipse which was banned in the last update


totally BURNT

rearm echo counters it. pulse nova counters it until late late game. mc with aoe counters it. I actually like that rearm phant is so unstoppable because it moves community away from single target dps heroes like wolf.

Rearm is OP and the source of all cancer in s6.

Ive said this before and I'm doing it again.

 

One combo is found and abused for ez games -> The specific combo is banned -> A new combo is found and abused -> Repeat.

 

Rearm needs to change/be banned.

 

Sidenote: A new thread has been opened for a new concept of Rearm.
