Patch 7.39 — major patch

The gist in 30 seconds

• Karri — a new INT hero. Abilities to teleport allies through temporal portals.
• Map — two new rune spots in the river, a rebuilt Dire jungle.
• Jungle camps — the large camp gives +20% experience, spawn sped up by 5 seconds.
• 38 heroes got skill changes — a nerf to the previous season's top meta.
• Aghanim's Shard — now given at minute 18, not 20.

Meta impact

Karri radically changes the roaming phase — supports get Io-level mobility. The map rework rewrites the early gank style: new rune spots force you to rethink ward setups. Expect 2–3 weeks of meta stabilization.

Umbrella update after 7.39

Scripts and auto-cast automatically adapt to the new cooldowns and ranges. Software downtime after the 7.39 release — +16 h (the average over the last 12 patches — 6–18 h).

The subscription SLA is 72 hours. If the delay exceeds it, all active users automatically get their subscription extended by the lost time. Details — in the guarantees.
