    Hey, nice video as always, but I think you've missed one change.
    Back when Spiked Carapace blocked only one instance of damage, it nullified whole spell and not only damage instance. It was changed when ability to block multiple instances from different sources, so now it only blocks damage. What it meant was that before it was way easier to play against for example Pudge with Nyx, because Spiked Carapace would negate Hook completly, or if you played against Bane, he wouldn't get healed by Brain Sap. Now all other effects except damage are applied.

    But I'm not sure if I missed it but I don't remember seeing the change of Impale from unit target to point target which made him "harder" to use in the video. I remember missing quite a bit of impales from that change due to me normally clicking on the hero when it was a unit target ability.

    the description of lich and nerubian assasin are similar simply cos of the reason that those are both of their official backgrounds from Warcraft 3 written by Blizzard. The guy who wrote the description just retold the blizzard story in a more fleshed out and shorter way. Half of the dota1 heroes just used their existing warcraft3 lore, while some had their identities changed completely.

    7:40 Exactly... These lines aren't as snappy, they're dragged out like they're jerking themselves over how cool it sounds, and the voice is just... Eehhh... "Mwahaha! I'm a BAD GUY!" No, gimmie WC3 Anubarak.
    8:50 Lol... That image selection was on purpose wasn't it? The Yoshi meme, lol.

    Nyx Assassin aka Anub'arak is an actual BOSS in World of Warcraft (history most famous online game). He can be found as the last boss in Azjol'Nerub (5-man dungeon) and also the last boss in Trial of the Crusader (10/25-man raid). His skills in WoW are almost the same in Dota except for the mana burn in addition to having locust swarm. He is one of the few heroes that can still be found ingame in WoW.
