Ringmasters numbers have plummeted, especially since the release of Dota 2 patch 7.37d.

So why has this happened over the course of two months?

He was slightly better than most of the heroes, as should be the case with a new hero.

But then came the nerfs in Dota 2 patch 7.37d, which was a massive blow to Ringmaster.
