I haven't played in ages but innates / facets seem like a big deal, no?
Yeah, absolutely. it's a huge change.
Do Dota2 players even keep up with this? I tried to come back but checked out when I saw random neutral drops. It was always a bit overwhelming but it looks more and more insane every time I do it.
It's easy to keep up with if you stick with it, I'd wager. But as someone who's been out for a couple years now it's less about going in with ~perfect knowledge like in the past and more about making as good a decision as you can in the moment. Don't need to know all the neutral items, just need to read the three they give me and pick my favorite for the situation.
Idk, I honestly love the direction they've been taking. Feels like the meta becomes slower to solve each time they expand things and there's so much room to play casually now it's kind fun. Like these facets give, in some cases, completely different ways of playing some of these heroes and that's incredibly cool.
