CM arcana.

'nuff said.

[Ghost_Jor 583]

I'm dreading people picking CM just because they have the arcana, only to go rush midas in the jungle...

 

I'm also dreading people picking Winter Wyvern and freezing the carry in the middle of the teamfight...

Thank god

"-Dire Ancients spawn box restriction area is now a bit smaller"

Anything that makes my job easier

Good, that's caught me out and is annoying as hell
