Ascension pbe changes

So in the pbe they are removing the bush under xerath which does more bad than good, and they are making Xerath unstealable? Why? In this game mode he is essentially the "epic monster" for the Ascension map. Where is the fun in not being able to pull an epic steal? Not really a big fan of this update because i actually like Ascension but this changed my opinion on it to an extent.
