5 Best Mid Lane Heroes in 7.39b Meta Dota 2
With the release of Patch 7.39b, Position 2 heroes haven’t really changed in terms of their responsibilities. The goal is still to secure levels and gold more efficiently than your opponent before roaming to the side-lanes to secure their lead. For the past year, this has been what determines if a hero is still good mid or not and thus far, we have seen a lot of the same heroes prevail patch after patch.
Yes, Puck is still good and for the same reasons as always. This hero has been meta for the entirety of 7.37, 7.38 and probably for 7.39 and mostly because the hero hasn’t really been touched in a meaningful way. They’re still a solid pick with most carries these days like Templar Assassin, Slark and Terrorblade because Puck keeps the foes in a relatively close proximity so these ally carries can tear them down. More importantly, Puck’s ultimate ability has a relatively low cooldown compared to other heroes with actually decent right-click capabilities, so they rotate well and gank easily.
Again, another hero where not a single thing has changed for Storm Spirit but it’s a hero that again has efficiency in rotating to other lanes and can gank swiftly to help secure leads. Don’t forget that Storm Spirit’s Galvanized Innate Ability still gives a lot of mana regeneration for your successful ganks so you’re looking at a lot of opportunities to secure easy kills in the side-lanes to then capitalize on that massive mana regen to flash-farm jungle camps and creep waves easily with Static Remnant, Overload and Ball Lightning to reach your late-game items like Parasma. Should the game go long enough, Storm can even grab an Aghs Scepter to help with follow-through on initiation with the Offlaner to really give his allies like Slark and Phantom Assassin, comfort in coming in with their damage output.
Just like Puck and Storm, Queen of Pain is one of the best midlaners right now because she hits a powerspike timing with Dagon that is ahead of the curve. With Succubus being her innate ability, Dagon has been her staple item because it takes advantage of her Masochist facet for extra damage but also granting her spell lifesteal, including her Pure damage-dealing ultimate, Sonic Wave – again thanks to the Succubus innate ability. This helps cancel out the downside of Masochist while keeping the spell amplification the facet provides.
In 7.39, Invoker’s most popular facet, Exort’s Agent of Gallaron was both nerfed and buffed:
1. Exort was significantly nerfed in damage by Aghs Scepter no longer providing more points in Exort but also that the Cataclyism ability had its cooldown increased, meaning less opportunities to use. Subsequently, his Sun Strike also had its damage reduced.
However, 2. Exort itself now gave better damage per point and Forge Spirits now last a long-ass time. These two changes make it so his mid and late-game ganks and team-fights are way less bullshit BUT, his laning stage, his weakest phase in a match, is vastly easier to overcome with an easier time to last-hit and harass your opponent.
For the longest time, Void Spirit has always been second to his spirit brothers Storm and Ember Spirit. While those heroes are still good, the latest changes to Void Spirit has given him a resurgence at 7K MMR level and continues to succeed. With 7.39, the hero was made significantly stronger in the early-to-mid-game where he really shines.
