Item changes in Dota 2 patch 7.36

In patch 7.36, the Dota 2 developers addressed item changes, but these adjustments are not as significant compared to the changes to heroes. However, it would be remiss not to mention Valve's efforts to enhance the previously underutilized Roshan's Banner. Whether it will become more popular among players in public games and professionals remains to be seen.

We also want to remind everyone that Valve released this major update in the midst of the major tournament DreamLeague Season 23. The teams have already played their initial games, but for many, this update came as a big surprise.
