6.85 is going to be a meta where supports are so powerful in the early game that an carry will get fucked up in the early game if they don't get protection from THEIR supports, which might make 3-man-ganks vs trilanes the norm now. This will make early fighting heroes that are already powerful once they hit lvl 6 (Gyro, Lesh, Storm) into the window of "elite heroes." Other heroes that will be considered powerful are strong defensive heroes to fight against the agros (Dazzle, etc.) It'll basically just be a rehash of 6.84 but with nerfs to Lesh and Storm and maybe Gyro.
Just imagine the cries if it turned out to be real.
I'd be first to cry in despair.
To know the meta of the next patch you just need to know what hero icefrog has been buffing in the last patches but is still weak
so i guess kunkka ?
Ember is a top pick right now, he kinda does most of what kunkka does, just much better and with better scaling.
