Анализ ошибки Muerta Talent: почему патч от 31 января разрушил эффективность героя в DreamLeague и BLAST Slam VIn

A new patch for Dota 2 was released, on January 31, 2026, instead of fixing the character, he was finally «fucked up». Mark sikle Lerman, a well-known analyst from Team Spirit, drew attention to this egregious case. To tell the truth, the situation looks as strange as possible: the developers from Valve tried to fix the talents, and eventually deprived the heroine of Muerta of her main power.

The Muerta Talent bug

The crux of the problem is that the level 15 +55 damage bonus now works through one place. Previously, this buff had dispersed illusions too much, which, in fact, was recognized as a mistake. However, after the edits, the talent seems to have stopped being friends with the main body of the hero. Now, when the Gunslinger passive is triggered, only one victim receives additional damage, although two should suffer — is this not a failure?nnsikle himself, by the way, noted that the fix for the copies simply broke the mechanics on the character itself. So far, the publisher has been silent and in no hurry to release fixes, although the professional scene is literally boiling with events.

Tournaments and prize money

Interestingly, all this outrage is taking place against the backdrop of heated battles. The finalists have already been determined for the DreamLeague Division 2 Season 3, which thunders online from February 4 to February 12, 2026. Eight teams, by the way, are being hacked for $50,000 and a coveted invite for the 28th season of Dream League, where the stakes will be much higher.nnAt the same time, BLAST Slam VI is unfolding in Attard, Malta. To be honest, the scale is completely different there — $1 million is at stake. The tournament will last until February 15, and it remains to be seen how such bugs will affect the meta and the choice of heroes by the top teams. It’s a shame if someone’s strategy goes to waste because of the crooked code.nnPreviously, it was possible to observe a bug with Anti-mage and Spectrum.
