He also got an Agh's upgrade, which I'll analyze later.

But after TI4, deathball was nerfed heavily with the 6.82 patch, leaving poor Elder Titan out of the competitive hero pool.ĮT has received numerous stealth buffs (and one more nerf to Astral Spirit damage, Icefrog pls) over the years since then, which focused more on making the Astral Spirit+ Echo Stomp combo more powerful. His only major power left was his Echo Stomp as a viable defensive tool against the TI4 deathball strategies. Very soon though, Icefrog nerfed the hero's main power to the ground, which was his amazing Astral Spirit + Natural Order nuke that used to do insane damage from long range very cheaply. And I did so, mostly thanks to the old "Negative Armor Titan" solo offlane build run by by the 2013 teams Empire and Kaipi (back when Kaipi had RTZ and EternalEnvy in their roster).

It's been a while since I looked at this guide! Back when I first wrote it, I was a 2.7k MMR scrub trying to get out of the trench. Top Back after 2 years! What has changed?
