My guess is he gets patched really soon. 7.0 to 7.01 was only 8 days, and less than 2 months after to 7.02. Usually when new heroes come out they get rebalanced super fast and they'll tweak other heroes as well.
His win rate has already tanked over 7% so it's pretty obvious he's bad and he was already sub 50% win rate hero.
100% there will be a balance patch (or even 2) before ranked season starts.
if not people will go apesh it
There are a ton of armor items that are ok on tiny, maybe builds need to be adjusted. Old standard build as far as I can tell was like echo sabre, blink, aghs, manta/ac/butter, sometimes shadow blade over blink. That build has no armor except for ac. Now you don't need aghs.
If you say fuck echo sabre and go cheaper items with armor now maybe it would work.
Blade mail- decent dmg, int is good on tiny, the return dmg will keep people from attacking you as well.
Armlet- This might seal the deal right here, attack speed, very good item on strength heroes. Problem is tiny has no way to regen the lost hp well
Vlads- This combined with armlet might sustain you. Has armor, hp sustain and mana. tiny also does a lot of base dmg so he benefits a lot from this
AC- obviously a good tiny item but expensive
Mek- Not a good tiny item I don't think, too much mana, not good stats
Crimson guard- This is interesting cus dmg block could be really good, but it's expensive for not much stats
the only way I would understand this change is if tiny got like 60%-70% base magic resistance
which would actually be really cool
imagine he's a hero with 0 armor but a ton of magic resist
so depending on the game you try to fit armor into the build somehow, sometimes it would be just armlet vlads and you'd run around and punch people, sometimes you go blink crest or some shit, who knows
the bottom line is he didn't get enough in order to be fucked this hard, maybe if at least he was almost impervious to magic damage then this change would make him "good against magic bad against physical" hero, right now he is a "kill me please" hero
Halberd is okay too
Can be disassembled to make SnY and Butterfly later
After Blink and Echo, building AC isn't that hard
I actually feel like Tiny isn't bad
It's just Turbo games are fast and people get HP surpassing the Tiny combo damage threshold soon after he gets Blink Dagger
Tree Grab isn't good though
it's free Aghs but tbh Aghs wasnt game changing either or any useful in fights
Why would you still go echo on tiny in this state?
Because tiny's right click is a nuke and it gives you mana regen. Also it is the most useful attack speed increase tiny can get early.
I agree it’s good but he needs armor more. Echo was about being a burst hero, blink, combo, echo punch them. With new tree I think he’s a farming hero, just skip echo and go right for end game armor items.
btw if you play tiny and get the no target toss talent
toss lane creeps to high ground and deep trees to have pseudo wards
I'm sure the thought was they were introducing a really powerful spell and thought he would be op and needed a balancing factor so no agility.

I'm sorry but who possibly thought that removing a hero's AGILITY AND ARMOUR WAS A PERFECTLY FINE IDEA.
No shit to Tree Grab tho, I like that idea.
