icefraud likes to buff or nerf certain playstyles, so heroes of unfavored playstyles usually get raped in updates (sniper, troll w/ turtle meta; naga, tb, old pl with illusion push).
The idea is never to make all heroes equally viable i think, but to give all heroes at least a niche while defining how the game should be played (early fighting)
sometimes he is on drugs when he changes a hero, and bloodseeker gets permanent 500 ms and 130 damage 3 minutes in
^ thug life.
Seriously now, i think as dispassionate said, he just give every hero a chance to be a competitive viable, and then, the counters to that hero become competitive viable as well. And yea, i think if we just played Sniper,jugg,troll every game, or void/tinker every game or thing like that would be boring
It just gets repetitive after a while. You just can't have 110 heroes and make them all have unique abilities. This is why some heroes will always get outshined because other heroes will just do what they do, but better.

Is it just impossible to balance this many heroes?
I ask primarily because in some ways the meta changes at least a few times a year and favoring different heroes. Shouldn't the goal to be to balance the game as much as possible?
Some of you have played dota longer than me if not most. Personally when wc3 was out I always wondered why there was so many dota games but didn't play a moba until I tried HoN.
Overall though sometimes I just don't get why it has to be such a balance shift all the time with the heroes.
Is this just an Icefrog thing to supposedly keep the game fresh? Or is it unrealistic to wish for more consistent diversity game to game.
