-Update- Patch is now live on the main client.

It's patch night for the Test Client, and among the usual raft of bug fixes and performances improvements Valve has delivered comes a very welcome content addition too: the Centaur Warrunner (formerly known as Warchief), a classic and stable hero who has recently been reworked a bit, finally finds his way into Dota 2.


The Centaur Warchief has traditionally been considered as one of the defining tanks in DotA, boasting a strength gain like no other hero thanks to his previous ultimate ability, Great Fortitude. However, with the release of DotA version 6.76, that ability has been replaced with the Stampede skill, adding a completely new dimension to the hero. Only time will tell how it affects his popularity and viability in competitive play.

And as for the actual patch notes, read on:
