      She needs none. Gank her early-mid game and she is done.

      Hot Damn, Clarice

        I would like to see small nerf like haunt illusions take 300% damage instead of 200% or rescale desolate to do 15/30/45/60 damage. She doesn't need any large nerf.

          Its fine, u only need to focus spectre in the first 12 min and then she well be useless, at least before the min 55 xd

          anctually they should buff shes E to 10% 15% 20% 25%

              If I recall correctly, this is 3rd time that Spectre is OP. Funny how patches go in circles. The samsara of DotA.

                        I don't think they will nerf spec. Spec is strong cus of the meta. If this was still storm and lesh or sniper and troll meta she wouldn't be strong despite the same abilities. Knowing Ice frog though -1 starting armor and agility

                                  1 armor is significant rather than symbolic though. 6% effective HP against physical attacks in early game is crucial and can decide life or death

                                  ^no plz spec is already shit mana pool

                                    Spectre might get some indirect nerfs

                                    Dire Wolf

                                      It's enough to make people stop spamming her, look at what happened to jug. He got +6 agi then later they nerfed his armor by 2? I don't remember but everyone stopped picking him. Whether or not it's significant it affects perception a ton.

                                      [Lk].Zano

                                        I expect her to not receive any nerf or something very minor and symbolic. Instead, almost every other hero will get buffed, the meta will change to something Spectre hates, another hero will get an OP buff and people will get something else to cry about.

                                          Maybe reduce the earlier levels of dispersion without nerfing the last level? Or increase Haunt CD slightly. I'd like to see a small nerf to her mid game but leave her lategame untouched. (Basically make it more difficult for her to get 6-slotted but without weakening her late game once she is six-slotted.)

                                          Dire Wolf

                                            Could just make desolate and dispersion magic not pure dmg, might be too much nerf

                                            Keke LM

                                              The only buff I want her to get is her model to be changed so she become pretty with a nice voice like windranger *_*

                                              TheMaverick427

                                                Dispersion isn't pure anymore and I think Desolate would just be bad as magic damage. It is already cancelled when there's a creep or something near the enemy.

                                                Keke LM

                                                  What is needed I think is just a slight nerf so we don't see spectre so often, a minimal nerf, you know, cuz spectre all day is boring lel

                                                        They can't be stunned? Shit, I've been gone from dota so long I never noticed that.

                                                                  I forgot they changed dispersion. I think the deso thing would be pretty strong nerf tbh, makes her pickoff potential a lot lower, a lot of those ults that wipe entire teams are cus they are spread out and taking full deso dmg. With normal magic resistance on heroes it would lower desolate dmg to 15/26.25/37.5/48.25. That's a pretty sizable nerf without being game breaking imo and then you could get stuff like pipe to counter her.

                                                                  Ath[e]isT

                                                                    BUSE

                                                                      plz do

Basically becomes a monster if your team has the coordination of sea planktons.

So annoying to win the first 40 minutes of the game and delay her radiance to 30+ minutes only to lose in a 50-80 minute game, cuz team wouldn't push high ground etc... Yea her desolate is way too strong versus INT heroes. Maybe even giving her Dispersion a miss chance like 20%, 15%, 10%, 5%.

Radiance is still by far the highest built item on her and with one of the highest winrates of the item when commonly built. Eg compare her 70% winrate with radiance to Naga's 53% winrate with radiance.
