And then there were 18

With The International arriving in just over a month, we want to give the competing teams some time to practice with a stable Hero roster, and as few new bugs from us as possible. With that in mind, after today’s update we’ll be clamping things down a tad, focusing on getting the existing feature and hero set polished to a high sheen. Fear not, we will continue to work on new heroes internally, getting them ready for a release once The International is over.

Today’s update also includes the first of a planned set of improvements to the in-game tools for Workshop contributors. This first piece is an Import Wearable wizard, which will handle the compilation validation of wearables for you. All you need to do is model, texture, and skin the wearable to your favorite hero, and then the Import tool will do the rest. When you submit an imported model, it’ll pack it into an organized .zip file, which makes it much easier for us to get it into the game, thereby increasing the number of community submissions we’ll be able to include. We’d love to hear any feedback or suggestions you have for this tool, or future tools, so once you’ve checked it out, head over to the new Workshop Tools forum.

Nyx voice is very good Very Happy

I love hear his laugh " nyx nyx nyx nyix...."

I don't understand why Nyx though

in my opinion all three of them are really well designed,just to mention that ezalor charge is so low on effect and now is hard to see by the enemy + i never knew about the aghanin scepter on visage,altough i played him alot,smth new i guess or i just didnt saw.

To tired to correct you my friend but welcome back blood.

Ezalor is a perverted old Gandalf.

Ezalor is one of the most op heroes in dota

If used well... but a lot of ppl look down on him because he is old and slow.

Everytime I play the response is ezalor won the game ;p
