Arteezy surprised by Medusa at 7.37

Arthur "Arteezy" Babayev compared Medusa’s abilities from 2014 to 2024, noting that in 2014, Medusa could neither stun, slow, nor root opponents. However, by 2024, she has gained passive movement and attack speed slows, as well as anti-teleportation and rooting abilities. He expressed curiosity about what changes might occur in another ten years, speculating that Medusa might even receive a global ability.

On the night of July 31 to August 1, Dota 2 released patch 7.37, which brought changes to aspects, hero balance, exhaustion mechanics, and items. Valve also altered the rewards for killing Roshan.
