January 03, 2013 Patch

Valve releases the latest update for Dota 2, which includes the instalment of the much-awaited Australian server. Several bugs such as the Roshan exploit with Clockwerk’s Cogs have also been addressed.

VISUALS
- Added Nightstalker darkness graphic to day/night clock.
- When calculating Net Worth, we no longer include the inventory value of the other Meepos.

GAMEPLAY
- Roshan is no longer pushed by Clockwerk’s cogs.

UI
- Added Announcer previewing.
- Fixed backwards day/night indicator.

MISC
- Added Australia server region.
- Failed chunks are now retried when downloading replays. This should address the issue with Error 206.

BOTS
- Bots will now wake up if they’re attacked during their initial 15 second slumber.
- Improved decision-making of who should buy wards on a team.
- Fixed Lich bot trolling teammates by using Dark Ritual on creeps that a teammate teleporting to.
- Swapped around Jugg bot’s item build (he goes for ring of health and battlefury faster now).
- Carry bots are now allowed to move further from their base laning location when going for last hits.

Australian Dota 2 fans will be the biggest benefactors of this patch, and Night Stalker is also looking good in the new patch with the new visual update
