I think the balancing improved this update a bit better (although I think yates and churn are still big problems). I think Ylva was an excellently balanced hero, and I can't wait to play her.

Also, I am a huge fan of the new UI. The stormcrown change and changes to ambient in the jungle were also decent changes.

However, there is still one glaring problem for me that I feel is holding the game back. That problem is top lane.

At this point, the position itself is for masochists. There's almost no way typical top lane heroes can fare against bot laners. I think the root of the problem is how they decided to mirror the map for both teams. I really hope that for 4.0 or for future releases, SEMC devises a way to fix the map so that bot laners face bot, and top laners face top. I feel that this would be a HUGE improvement gameplay wise, and I think that would make the game as a whole healthier and a lot more fun.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk
