Bots
}}
 * Fixed bug where bots would stand under the tower in the lane they were pushing when it had backdoor protection activated. Now they should move back to their lane front.
 * Bots no longer assume that humans will fully help out when they're deciding whether to do Roshan.
 * Revised Windrunner's Shackle Shot and Windrun usage - they won't trigger as much when doing a casual retreat.
 * In late-game, bots are more likely to go to side shops to get what they need (especially TP scrolls).
 * Bots are no longer controllable by spectators.
 * Improved the logic for deciding when to give up on an attack target that they haven't touched in a while.
 * Fixed issue where bots would attack creeps rather than defend their tower from enemy heroes.
 * Reworked how bots push lanes, they should be less likely to tank towers and should be in appropriate positions more often now.
 * Fixed bug where heroes would leave their tower too easily when not fully recharged.
 * Bots will now use a bottled regen rune rather than retreating all the way back to base to heal.
 * Fixed bug in Zeus' Thundergod's Wrath usage that caused with him to killsteal with it too much.
 * Bots should be better about harassing heroes during the laning phase - melee heroes should no longer be able to last-hit with impunity.
 * Revised sniper bot skill build to be less push-oriented and more gank/dps oriented.
 * Reduced spamminess of bots announcing the defense of a lane.
 * Made bots better about retreating to retrieve their items.
