Valve Shows Love for Supports with Dota 2 Update 7.09

A couple of weeks back, Valve came out with a statement about the all-new update system for Dota 2. The developers will release a Dota 2 update every two weeks. And since it has been two weeks since the last Spring Cleaning Update, the developers have come forward with a new Dota 2 Update 7.09.

Dota 2 Update 7.09

However, this time the all-new update for the game is targeted towards a specific group of players – Supports – as we call them. Dota 2 Update 7.09 features quite a lot of new changes for the game which in the end will only make support players happy. The changes include Courier cost reductions, neutral camp stack bonuses and bounty rune changes. For more information on the Dota 2 update 7.09, check out the complete patch notes below:

• Courier cost reduced from 200 to 50
• Starting gold is reduced from 625 to 600
• Tangoes now come with 3 charges and cost 90 gold
• Initial bounty rune now gives +40 gold to all heroes instead of 100 to the hero that picks it up (those bounty runes look slightly different)
• Killing a neutral camp stack now gives a bonus 15% gold bounty to the hero that stacked it. No bonus is given if the stack is cleared by an enemy or the hero that stacked it. (New audio is now played once a stack is successful. Stacked neutrals have a buff with the stacker’s hero icon on it)
• Tier 1 m >Additional Fixes And Changes

Furthermore, along with these much-appreciated changes (if I might add), the developers are adding in quite a lot of fixes and UI alterations as well. If you wish to learn more about those, we have got you covered. Check out the list of these fixes below:

• Lane creeps now have a minor knockback based on the amount of hero damage in the killing blow
• Nature’s Guise now shows a buff icon to show when Treant remains within range of trees
• Fixed Flesh Golem heal not taking into account temporary increases to max HP
• Fixed location of familiars when player had bought Aghs or chose the +1 Familiar talent
• Courier no longer try to deliver gems if your inventory is full.
• Minor Windranger updates to model, textures and attachment point for bow strings
• Fixed Windranger taunt not showing when you don’t have vision of the center of the map
• Added last updated time to the guide details view in the In-Game guide picker
• Added number of camps stacked to the support column of the post-game scoreboard
• A toggle near the language filter to prioritize recent guides has been added
• Custom Games: The local lobby list is now sorted by oldest lobby first
• Custom Games: Fixed a bug where loading into a custom game would occasionally fail to find the necessary files (resulting in a crash or missing interface elements)
