lol those days were awful. If your hero wasn't a carry or had hard cc or support abilities to assist the carry/carries they were worthless lol. It was not uncommon to see 3 even 4 carries in a team comp. Worst game I ever played was against a Murdock, Sparrow, Twinblast, Grim, and Muriel (she used to be OP AF lol!). Our carry support duo would get owned and our melee heroes (me included) would get melted if we got anywhere close.
Epic's remedy to fix this? Tank meta 😐
Glad we are on Monolith with the current balance system. People wouldn't be complaining so much about the balance if they played during these early days where carries, Muriel, and pure dmg rampage ruled Agora.

What the fuck did you just say?
Are you saying that you didn't enjoy the strategic prowess of getting completely wrecked by a khaimera sprinting at the speed of light out of the jungle despite having wards because you couldn't activate travel mode in time?
There's NO way you didn't enjoy the strategic strategy of requiring your jungler to plant harvesters, which they strategically never did.
I mean, if you don't enjoy strategy I can understand your point of view i guess. Personally, I enjoyed strategizing my carry builds with plenty of health and armor because fuck balance
If you can't appreciate that, i don't know what to tell you bro. I think u just need to appreciate strategy

Personally i miss the strategy that went into dunking orb with muriel ult or the depth of rampage when u got full health and not this easy regen stuff

Can't stop the 'Dock

imagine if he was actually able to aim in addition

with people walking that slow, you had no need for such skill

that's even worse now, he can't shoot slow-moving targets

Ok, I'm new to the game but isn't this damage output similar to that of a current Murdock with 80%+ frit and power build? Honestly curious.
Edit: crit not frit

No. It's not the same thing. What this video doesn't show you is that Murdock was capable of critting for 1800.
If Murdock shot you once, you would be either critically wounded or dead. It looks like the same thing in this video, but trust me -- it's way different.

Thanks for the response!
Also, that is INSANE! 1800 damage yow

And Revenant is more OP than any hero ever, Epic is way worse at balancing now, power creep, bring back Legacy. /s

Haha casters were just bigger minions that gave more cxp back in the day.

Ugh, I remember when EPIC wanted casters to be "lane pushers" like who tf wants to do that job? It was so horribly boring, and most casters did such a miniscule amount of damage compared to carries.
Now I can 1v1 carries as Howitzer if I land my combos correctly. We've come a long way.

Idk mate pre-nerf aurora probably takes that cake

That's why I added the /s

This my god
Pre-Nerf She was probably the most op thing since 1-800 Murdock

It's not like PC existed.

Even with PC aurora could still 2v1 anybody who didn't have it equipped she was literally getting free kills 1v1 free 2v1 free near an enemy minion wave

The balance is definitely better now, but balance is different from the map. For some reason Epic was incapable of making big changes to the game until Monolith. I'd love to see how Legacy plays with the current characters.

I dont even remember the announcer ever saying those lines.

Oh how i miss legacy

Miss that legacy travel mode

That movement speed. Painfully slow!

Old OP Murdock you say?
Watch damage in this video
If I wasn't a scrub and didn't miss AA ult, that Howie/TB would be dead.

Damn. I always forget how damn slow legacy was
How could we miss skill shots?
most skill shots were freaking slow too
