The biggest change was a total rework to how drafting works in Captain\u2019s Mode, but it also fine-tuned a number of items and heroes to rebalance the meta. What's in Dota 2 Patch 7.34? Captain\u2019s Mode drafting gets massively overhauled In previous patches, Captain\u2019s Mode drafting followed a system where each team would ban two heroes each, followed by two picks, three bans, two picks, two bans, and one pick. As of this patch, it now follows a new system. In the first phase, Radiant bans three heroes and Dire bans four heroes, then each team picks one hero. In the second, Radiant bans two heroes while Dire bans one to make up for the extra one in the first phase, then each team picks three heroes. In the third and final phase, each team bans two heroes and picks their fifth. Related: Valve pulls trigger on major overhaul for The International ahead of TI12 This change is massive since it means pro teams reliant on taking advantage of meta picks or having players with small hero pools will need to deal with more bans coming their way. 109 item, hero changes shuffle the meta again The patch also made changes to 38 items and 26 neutral items. The most notable one was Midas. Transmute now has two charges. It starts off with a single charge, but after that, it gains a charge every 100 seconds with a maximum of two. This is a massive buff to the item since it means heroes wielding it will receive twice as much gold and scale better into the late game. In total, nearly 110 heroes have also been tweaked this update, including meta ones like Ancient Apparition, Dark Seer, Ember Spirit, Enigma, Faceless Void, Legion Commander, Naga Siren, Spirit Breaker, Undying, and more. The changes touched everything from abilities and cooldowns to stats and talents. Related: The biggest winners and losers of Dota 2 Patch 7.34 A snippet of the patch leaked on Aug. 8, which prompted the devs to drop it earlier than their originally planned Aug. 10 release date. It\u2019s the biggest patch since the New Frontiers update and the one that will define the meta in The International 2023. General updates in Dota 2 patch 7.34 Changes to Captains\u2019 Mode draft order Old order: 2-3-2 Bans, 2-2-1 picks New order: New: 3-2-2 Bans (First Pick) 4-1-2 Bans (Second Pick) 1-3-1 picks (Both) Time per ban during the First Phase Bans decreased from 30 seconds to 15 seconds New casting type: Alternative cast Updated the UI for many abilities that were using Auto-Cast to enable different behaviors on an ability Alternative Cast Abilities can be toggled in the same way as Auto-Cast (default to alt+keybind or right clicking) to adjust their cast behavior Alternative Cast Abilities have a unique icon for the different casting modes Holding the Ctrl key will allow you to cast the non-selected version of the ability without having to toggle it New stat: Slow resistance Status Resistance no longer reduces the impact of slows.

The biggest change was a total rework to how drafting works in Captain\u2019s Mode, but it also fine-tuned a number of items and heroes to rebalance the meta. What's in Dota 2 Patch 7.34? Captain\u2019s Mode drafting gets massively overhauled In previous patches, Captain\u2019s Mode drafting followed a system where each team would ban two heroes each, followed by two picks, three bans, two picks, two bans, and one pick. As of this patch, it now follows a new system. In the first phase, Radiant bans three heroes and Dire bans four heroes, then each team picks one hero. In the second, Radiant bans two heroes while Dire bans one to make up for the extra one in the first phase, then each team picks three heroes. In the third and final phase, each team bans two heroes and picks their fifth. Related: Valve pulls trigger on major overhaul for The International ahead of TI12 This change is massive since it means pro teams reliant on taking advantage of meta picks or having players with small hero pools will need to deal with more bans coming their way. 109 item, hero changes shuffle the meta again The patch also made changes to 38 items and 26 neutral items. The most notable one was Midas. Transmute now has two charges. It starts off with a single charge, but after that, it gains a charge every 100 seconds with a maximum of two. This is a massive buff to the item since it means heroes wielding it will receive twice as much gold and scale better into the late game. In total, nearly 110 heroes have also been tweaked this update, including meta ones like Ancient Apparition, Dark Seer, Ember Spirit, Enigma, Faceless Void, Legion Commander, Naga Siren, Spirit Breaker, Undying, and more. The changes touched everything from abilities and cooldowns to stats and talents. Related: The biggest winners and losers of Dota 2 Patch 7.34 A snippet of the patch leaked on Aug. 8, which prompted the devs to drop it earlier than their originally planned Aug. 10 release date. It\u2019s the biggest patch since the New Frontiers update and the one that will define the meta in The International 2023. General updates in Dota 2 patch 7.34 Changes to Captains\u2019 Mode draft order Old order: 2-3-2 Bans, 2-2-1 picks New order: New: 3-2-2 Bans (First Pick) 4-1-2 Bans (Second Pick) 1-3-1 picks (Both) Time per ban during the First Phase Bans decreased from 30 seconds to 15 seconds New casting type: Alternative cast Updated the UI for many abilities that were using Auto-Cast to enable different behaviors on an ability Alternative Cast Abilities can be toggled in the same way as Auto-Cast (default to alt+keybind or right clicking) to adjust their cast behavior Alternative Cast Abilities have a unique icon for the different casting modes Holding the Ctrl key will allow you to cast the non-selected version of the ability without having to toggle it New stat: Slow resistance Status Resistance no longer reduces the impact of slows.
