Out of the game for 2 Months
Like my title says I haven't played a game of Dota in two months, this was due to increased anger in my matches, loads of schoolwork, and new games coming out. So I haven't really kept up with all the patches and new updates that have come out in that time. I want to get back into playing again but I'm worried I am going to be super lost after all this time. Are there any websites other than the Dota 2 main page that can show me what has happened in the past two months? Or are there just any general notes I should have? And I need to know, is the snowball still OP? Thanks everyone.

Tusk is powerful.
6.85b is a 5-man "kill the hell out of them and take objectives" patch. Teamwork / team-fighting / ganks / controlling the lanes / jungle... etc...
If anger is an issue, do note that your wins and losses are going to basically be determined by your "5th guy" and it's extremely important to keep your team calm, cool and collected. You will actually win more games where you can keep everyone on the level than you will games where people are "more skilled".
Anger is really bad right now, this is a frustrating meta due to the high number of good ganking heroes, it's easy to get caught out and die, so don't rage at people when they do or you'll set yourself up to have non-cooperative teammates when it's time to push rax.
