Tinker’s rework added the Defense Matrix skill in lieu of March of the Machines, basically interchanging the Shard skill with the original one. Now, with Rearm and Keen Convergence immediately available, Tinker can be a terror in the side lanes with the reworked Laser and the always reliable Heat-seeking Missile with very little tradeoff to keep him in check. Previously, for Tinker to meet these conditions, he would have to first farm 2500 gold for Boots of Travel, a fairly decent tradeoff for what it can provide him. What makes this ability broken is the fact that now, Tinker can spam Rearm and Keen Conveyance to keep himself topped up in terms of health and mana at all times, and the only barrier to it is hitting level 6.

This ability is, for lack of a better term, ‘stupid beyond belief,’ and it makes Tinker one of the most OP heroes in patch 7.30. This sub-ability levels up in conjunction with Rearm, Tinker’s signature ultimate skill.

Level 2 allows targeting units and level 3 allows targeting heroes. Channel for 4.5/4/3.5s to teleport to a friendly Building.

At a glance, it will seem like the changes for him made him slower in farming due to the removal of March of the Machines, but it’s important to look at what this entailed in return.

With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the biggest winners and losers of patch 7.30 for Dota 2. On the other side of the spectrum, there are some heroes as well who should be avoided due to some very big nerfs.

However, this does not mean that nobody will be there to take their places instead, and indeed there are some standout heroes that will most likely be considered OP for patch 7.30.
