It will probably be a month or two before the full impact of this patch hits. People who make a living off of this game will figure out the best way to jungle, best places to ward, if having a mid bottle is still efficient, etc, etc, etc. Everybody was saying how all these lvl 25 abilities make heroes so OP, but honestly, how many games go that long?
Until they give us the ability to modify the hud (as in, move shit around to places that actually make sense), it will suck. Some of the ideas behind it were good, but the implementation was shit. I understand why they had to get rid of the old UI (due to Scale Form), but what we ended up with is a step back (for the end user).
And this Monkey King is a whole lot of bullshit. I haven't been raped by him yet, but only because people playing him in pubs at my level are scrubs and can't see the best way of using him. Needing flying vision to see him is bullshit. IMO he needs some major balancing at earlier levels.
In regards to the skill trees - it's all about predicting how the match will go. Those EXP% bonuses look good on paper, but if the match drags, then it's a waste. With the changes to the Summoners and the HotD, I think pushing strats might be the way to go. Hell, I'd love to see a Catapult strat done in 7.00.
