Patch 7.33e: how Dota 2 heroes' win rate has changed before Riyadh Masters 2023
Less than a week ago patch 7.33e was released, and Morphling, Timbersaw and Medusa were significantly nerfed. Some heroes continue to remain at the top, while others have lost over 7% win rate in the first few days after the update.
Meepo and Legion Commander are at the top with a win rate of around 55.18%, while Undying (54.45%), Naga Siren (54.59%) are not that far behind. And the most interesting is Spectre and her 54.39%.
The best heroes based on win rate over the last week:
- Legion Commander (55.28%)
- Meepo (55.18%)
- Naga Siren (54.59%)

- Dark Seer (54.13%)
- Ancient Apparation (53.53%)

Undying had these changes in patch 7.33e:
- Base Health Regen decreased from 0.25 to -0.25 (+1.9 HP Regen at Lvl 1)
- Aghanim's Shard now allows Tombstone to be unit targeted on cast. If cast on an allied hero, they will be automatically bunkered
- Aghanim's Shard no longer grants the Grab Ally ability to neither Undying nor the Tombstone. Allies still can right-click the Tombstone to get inside
The weakest heroes based on win rate are also worth mentioning. Doom (40.73%), Nature`s Prophet (42.84%), Batrider (43.31%), Lina (44.75%) and Morphling (44.94%) are the least effective characters right now.

The statistics was provided by Dotabuff portal, the win rates can change every minute because of the large number of games being played. It should be taken into account that many heroes lost or gained effectiveness not only because of the release of patch 7.33e, but also because of systematic updates that strengthened or weakened certain heroes.
On July 19, Riyadh Masters 2023 will begin, where teams will play for a prize pool of $15 million. Players will showcase their strongest strategies and signature heroes. The winner will earn $5,000,000. The draw of the Play-in stage has been made, the schedule of all matches of this stage has also become known.
