Best Mid Heroes In Dota 2 Patch 7.37

Dota 2 patch 7.37 is full of strong mid heroes but some of them are simply better than others. Many of them are likely to receive nerfs in 7.37b, so you should take advantage of the opportunity while it lasts.

In this guide, you will discover some of the best heroes for the mid role in Dota 2’s newest patch.

Kunkka

Kunkka’s minimum damage was increased by 4. The hero’s new innate ability, Admiral’s Rum, makes him very tanky thanks to the buffs he receives for 10s while being below 65% HP. This passive ability has a 60s cooldown, so you’ll have it available for every fight. Another great thing about it is that it stacks with other sources of Admiral’s Rum.

The radius of Torrent was increased by 25 and its mana cost was decreased by 10.

Tidebringer’s cleave range is now 650 at level 1 and 1100 at level 4. Everything else has gone back to normal.

Ghostship has become even stronger than before. Allies touched by it receive 15% bonus speed and 35% delayed damage. These buffs last for 10s, which is an enormous amount of time in a team fight.

This hero can safely be played as a tanky damage dealer. Items like Armlet of Mordiggian and Heaven’s Halberd are highly recommended.

Viper

Viper’s win rate has improved by more than 5% after the release of Dota 2 patch 7.37. At level 10, thanks to his innate ability, this hero deals 0.3 extra physical damage for each percentage of missing HP.

So if he attacks an enemy hero that has 50% HP, he will deal an additional 15 damage. It may not seem very much, but combined with all the other bonuses, it’s often sufficient to get the kill.

Viper’s main weakness is his mobility. But you can compensate for that by purchasing either Yasha and Kaya or some other mobility item. The handicap is quite severe in the early game: 25 movement speed. Most heroes have 300 ms, Viper has 275. You should also consider buying Boots of Travel.

Some of the best offensive items on Viper are Dragon Lance and Aghanim’s Scepter.

Ember Spirit

Ember Spirit currently has a win rate of almost 54%. He is now one of the most successful heroes in Dota 2 and it’s not hard to guess why. His attribute increase per level is excellent and his facets are incredibly useful.

Double Impact allows you to hit the nearest target twice when multiple targets are hit. Chain Gang increases the number of targets for Searing Chains. This becomes valuable when fighting multiple enemies that stay close to each other.

When playing Ember Spirit, you need to decide what to focus on. Most players like hybrid builds that take advantage of every ability. But you could also go for a physical damage build that’s designed to get lots of kills in team fights. A Daedalus on this hero is usually all you need.
