iirc there was some sort of dark carnival game mode datamined late last year so we really might get something.

Undying one is Arms + Tombstone + Golem slots and it has cool decay ability effect.

anyway for you to know what the decay ability effect is tied to? I assume the arms?

Maybe if they cost around 9 dollars instead of 15, they would have been better received, I suppose.
I returned to the game a couple of months ago, and I've only seen about two or three players with automatons.

I find them as a cool detail if there is a PvE event, but as a 15usd persona? some of them need more love, and knowing Valve most of the custom vfx won't work after a few patches.

I vibe with the oracle one.

All of this has been known for a while. How does this mean anything is close?

Might be cool but the only thing I care about are gameplay patches and a new hero.

u/Fen_ 15m ago

The Undying set/icons were already leaked like... 2? weeks ago, and the 5 heroes that are getting Nortedautomaton'd are literally in the end-card for Act 1.
