During the night of June 5, Valve released the major 7.41d update for Dota 2. The patch includes balance adjustments for numerous heroes, as well as changes to two items — Dagon and Mage Slayer.
Tiny received some of the most significant adjustments. The movement slow provided by his Aghanim’s Shard and its duration have been increased, while the rest of his abilities were nerfed. Kez was also heavily affected by the update, with three of his abilities receiving nerfs. In addition, his Level 10 talent, “+12% Magic Resistance,” has been replaced with “+6% Discipline Shift Bonuses.”
A full list of changes is available via the official patch notes.
As a reminder, three more teams have advanced to the next stage of IEM Cologne Major 2026, while HEROIC have been eliminated from the tournament.
