Patch 7.32 brings a new Scepter upgrade to the Centaur Warrunner. Take a look at the ‘Hitch a Ride’ ability and some entertaining clips from the Dota 2 community!
Last night, Patch 7.32 dropped in the Dota 2 client, unfolding a large number of changes to heroes, items, creeps, and more. But one hero, Centaur Warrunner took the spotlight of this patch. The tanky centaur received an interesting Scepter rework called 'Hitch a Ride' and everyone is insanely amused!

Centaur Warrunner's Scepter Upgrade, the 'Hitch a Ride' ability allows Centaur to toss an ally onto the cart hitched behind him. While on the cart, the ally can cast and attack normally. However, they can't move independently. They are immune to targeted attacks but are vulnerable to non-targeted spells.
More details regarding 'Hitch a Ride':
- Increases the attack range of hitched melee heroes by 200.
- Mana Cost: 75.
- Cooldown: 60s.
- Duration: 8s.
- Cast Range: 300
The 'Hitch a Ride' ability can also be used while Centaur Warrunner uses its ultimate, Stampede.
Apart from that, 'Hitch a Ride' is a reliable spell for saving allies. It displaces a hero from its initial position into the cart, which means it works similarly to Pudge's Hook or Marci's Dispose. Here is how Centaur Warrunner can save his ally from a Chronosphere using the 'Hitch a Ride' ability.
