New Markmanship effect for Drow

New Dagon effects at various levels
along with v6.77c parity, and Timbersaw in -CM (wooooooooo).
Timbersaw being added to -CM reminded me of something.
Apparently, a while back, a guy was posting long walls of text about hero developments under the title Break the Metagame. He called a number of things including the resurgence of Gyrocopter, the rise of Alchemist, how goddamn good Shadow Demon would become, and the terror that is PL+KotL. 3 months ago.
He's now calling Dark Seer becoming useless with splitpushing coming into vogue, Zeus becoming strong (Bottlecrow has one good thing about it I guess), Necrolyte+Warlock+Timbersaw all seeing a fair amount of play within the near future, Abbadon seeing virtually no play when he gets added, Bristleback seeing a fair bit of play when he gets added, Slark seeing some love as a solo pick, and Tusk seeing tons of play when he gets into -CM.
If this guy is right, I'm shitting my pants.
