The huge changes in patch 7.36 allow for brand new hero synergies. See these for tips!
The immense Dota 2 patch 7.36 is fundamentally changing the game yet again. Oracle will tell you where the next Rune will spawn, Marci increases the level of couriers, and Centaur really gets thicker over the course of a game.
With the changes, it's still difficult to take in all the possible combos between heroes. Luckily, this video from the Dota 2 tips channel lays out a few really interesting ones that you probably haven't thought of yet.
- If you spam a couple of spells as Rubick, you can make a huge Chronosphere or other AoE spells like Black Hole and Ancient Apparition's Vortex. Casting spells grants Rubick a stackable buff.
- Techies can get huge casting range because you also put Neutral Items into your backpack. They all work with the right facet! You can get really tanky, too....
- Morphling can put a regular item into the Neutral Item spot after morphing into Meepo.
- Weaver's bugs can grant him experience. You will know when you're hitting illusions with them, because you won't get EXP.
- If Pudge eats Warlock while his golem is out, the summons will get huge and have greatly increased burn.
- When playing Oracle, Alt-click on the buff you always have to tell your team where the next Rune will spawn. You will also say where and what kind of Rune just spawned if available.
- Stack up Tidehunter's damage reduction buff to crazy levels to laugh at the enemy team attempting to kill you.
- Phoenix can now deal a lot more magical damage with one of its facets, which burns enemies per missing health.
- Windranger's new facet for Focus Fire can apparently earn easy Rampages.
- Centraur's Aghanim's Scepter now provides invulnerability to the passenger, apparently even through Chronosphere or Black Hole. It also counts as high ground, so this will be perfect with Drow Ranger's damage buff!
- Necrophos' new facet that increases AoE with Sadist stacks is quite good (in fact, nerfed already). Excellent synergy with Raidiance!
There are so many more combos and new things, we can't possibly list them all. I hope you've been finding broken things on your own, too!
