Invoker feels very underwelming in General Discussion
Nile

    He is the most well-designed hero in the game. Most of his useful stuff is unreliable(except cold snap and alacrity) forge spirit and tornado needs lvl15 and lvl25 to be good. Dear Mr. Frog, place his 25 talent at 20, and give him some boring shit like 20 armor or 15 all stats at 25.

    Nile

      Seriously tho, he comes online so late, and he is that great late(he needs agh's and blink in a full 6 slot)

        Invoker doesn't need a buff.

        It's a balanced hero.

        dunce

          vokers fine

          Emiya

            hahahahahaaaaaaay , dude that's a great joke you made

            on serious note the hero is utterly broken in the right hands and trash can in the wrong one, the only thing that hold him back is his skill ceiling , the problem with buffing invoker is (now:good invoker is cancer to play against and single handed carry the game and change the tide of TFs , after: even half-ass invokers are now like legends among men with just the basic understanding)

              Hahahaha(no)

                    Then all ppl would take +30%exp instead

                    Chiwa

                      If you take exp talent as invoker . Youre playing the hero wrong !

                      ness

                        that early the xp talent would be more than worth it lmao

                        Potato Marshal

                          +30xp at level 10 would be really overpowered for a lot of supports, but it would just be completely broken on a hero that gains levels so quickly like Invoker.

                          UnSure

                            He's not broken nor is he underwhelming, he's balanced.

                            Autumnus

                              He is extremely underwhelming at the hands of noobs

                              UnSure

                                Yes he's has a high learning curve and is extremely useless if not played at least to a semi disent level, lucky there are 100+ other heros to play if one isn't inclined to spend the time in learn how to invoker

                                  Is has the tendency to feel underwhelming if you are used to more active heroes earlier on. Also, likely that u are not good at the hero.

                                    I hates PA personally because I'm an unlucky guy. even if my networth is 1.5x higher or more than her + MKB, I'll just dead to double crits before landing any right click on her

                                      BUFF THAT? U FUCKIN SERIOUS?

                                        Invoker was fine about 6 nerfs ago. He is still a good hero but his utility and power have been seriously curbed. He's far more one-dimensional now than he was. He didn't need any of the masses of nerfs he received. If the hero requires skill it SHOULD be stronger than those that don't require skill. Being a little stronger is fine if its a skill hero. Its like people who whine constantly about pudge power and keep getting him nerfed. Its always low shit-tier players who are too bad and too dumb to know that they need to learn to admit they aren't good.

                                        Look at all these shit-tier players thinking they get to talk about balance in this thread. No, 6 nerfs ago he wasn't broken. Yes I am well aware of how the top people owned with him. He is one of my best heros. Us upper .1% people do not think like you people do down there. You need to realize this. Your ideas are bad and wrong. Your thoughts are bad and wrong. Its why you people stay permanently down there confused as to why you can't ever get any higher while its completely fuckin obvious to us why you're there and why you DESERVE to be there. Dunning Kruger people. Dunning. Fucking. Kruger. That's right; all of you excuse-makers.

                                          invoker was broken 6 patches ago , the hero was cancer even in 7+ k games who also have skill , after six nerfs he is now a decent mid , a great teamfighter ,ok pusher , nice roshan potential and global pressure throughout the game an still being picked by every pro team

                                          do you even imagine what was he before these nerfs , try watching miracle invoker to know what is the full potential of this hero

                                          meteor hammer

                                            buff invoker please guys! thanks

                                            Snu

                                              What?
                                              Invoker isn't underwhelming. What is underwhelming is player's ability to farm with him, understanding what items to get, and when to cast what spells (ie. Not trying to Tornado + EMP + CM + DB BKB'ed heroes). Get gud and he wont feel so bad.

                                              nikos

                                                R u stupid?

                                                Invoker is one of the most well-balanced heroes in the game. And the Lvl 25 talent tree is not 20 armour and 15 all stats, it's AoE deafening blast or -18 sec tornado cooldown which -18 sec tornado cd is obviously better. Honestly, his Lvl 25 -18 sec tornado cooldown is one of the most broken things in the game IMO.

                                                Jack__Attack

                                                  Invoker is an awful hero I ban him in solo queue specifically so my team doesn't choose him.

                                                  ooooooooooo

                                                      COMPARED TO THEM INVOKER IS PERFECTLY BALANCE

                                                      TORNADO COOLDOWN U SAY? U DIDNT KNOW THAT TORNADO'S SPEED IS LOWER THAN PUDGE'S HOOK? U NEED BRAIN TO PLAY AGAINST GOOD INVOKER, NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW SHIT U ARE

                                                          Why is aoe d-blast higher winrate than -tornado cd?
                                                          Don't tell me when you don't have to defend high ground with -tornado cd, you most likely won.

                                                          Chiwa

                                                            Aoe blast is obviously better than tornado cd reduction

                                                                Then why does everyone choose -tornado cd? Honestly tornado cd feels much better as well. Think about it, usually where is only 1-2 right clicker on each team what's the point of disarming everyone?

                                                                Chiwa

                                                                      Tornado ghostwall can control creepwave too

                                                                              nekocan
