Vitaly “Sword Art” Petkin, a coach for Dota 2 teams and former mentor for Natus Vincere, expressed his view that support players operating at tier 1 or tier 2 levels should definitely be proficient with the hero Ringmaster in the current game meta (patch 7.38c).
Sharing his perspective on X (formerly Twitter), Petkin remarked: “Unpopular opinion: any self-respecting tier 1-2 support should be able to play Ringmaster right now.”
This recommendation comes during the ongoing PGL Wallachia Season 4 tournament. Following the initial playoff matches, Ringmaster stands out as the most frequently picked hero, appearing in 57 games. Teams including Ringmaster in their draft achieved a victory rate of 52.63% in these matches.
The current live patch for Dota 2 is 7.38c, which was released on March 28th. This update brought about various changes, including specific adjustments for the Ringmaster hero.
