Was the Bio buff enough?

I think the recent bio buff was a step in the right direction, but the real question, was it enough? first off I'd like to say I haven't played any IH games as bio yet. but against a few good pubbers. one was a mirror match up and me and the other bio teared eachothers teams up. but lategame i found, i really wasnt doing any dps. but then again i could tank insane amounts of damage. I don't know. more want to hear your thoughts.

Lategame bio should still be strong enough to ultikill alot of int support heroes, Rory/egon/raynor all need a babysitter or they die from double e r

This means that in teamfights they need to focus on minions to prevent you from getting a easy kill thus decrease their dmg output vs your allies.

And you can tank alot lategame.

 

So earlygame bio is a good ganker, midgame a good pusher/bosssoloer, lategame a tank

And the whole game a nightmare for lowhp no aoe heroes who wander off(smokescreen is counterd by scanner)

Personaly, i feel that bio is a tanky support hero, he unburrows behind a hero, push him to his team with Q, then uses ulti which gives (40%?) extra phycial dmg, so bio's team can finish off one important hero extremely quickly, and then bio can tank the rest of the team.

in pubs though, since alot of people wonder alone, you can simply sneak on them, ulti, tasser, shapel and watch them die as they try to run away from your minions.

Ironically, rory's flaming stevie can instant kill all of bio's minions and scare off many heroes. Rory's ulti somehow acts as an extremely hard counter to bio's physical amplification as stevie does true damage and can kill a lot of the enemy heroes if chain stunned.

 

The main problem with bio's minions are their lack of spell resist and armor thus bio can never fully utilise the minions effectively enough to be a threat as long as teammates are nearby. The bio buff only amplified on one hero at a time. As the hero under bio's debuff will retreat behind the line of the allies, it would seems inappropriate to jump on the infected hero just to land a few amplified hits when you are going to be focus fired by the teammates.

Khala Stone buff is also there... 1275 and +60 str to u if u stay burrowed and then boom!

 

In lategame u can still tank, kill the casters (i guess), and bio is a perfect hero to buy sharpnel and shc, so u can initiate and help a lot

 

And the Q (push) is rly nice if used properly

Ya, I mean bio can be the classic meat bag, and just soak damage. But he used to be a real threat, I dunno, like I said in my OP the buff was a step in the right direction. I guess time will tell if it was in fact enough.
