AM is over powered (New Meta)
If my maths is wrong please feel free to correct me. I'm not 100% sure how the equations are calculated in dota 2 so this is mostly assumptions.

The AM ultimate which is AOE seems a tad overpowered in it's current state. I am able to almost one hit most bosses in impossible difficulty.

At max stacks (To get stacks quickly just have alot of casters in your team) and max skill it does roughly 250k damage then on top of scepter which multiples it by 1.25-2.5x damage we are looking at around 500k damage.

Then increase the magic damage with intellect you can easily amplify by 500% by getting fully upgraded core + lens upgrade well before the final rounds.

When using -magic resist items you can get roughly -80% magic resistance on bosses. This one shots basically everything.

So in short 250k*2.5*5*1.8 = approx 5.6 million damage

Then in newgame+ this number would increase far more by stacking int.

This needs some sort of balance.

Have you seen what BS's lvl 7 Q can do without any items?
Casting on a caster + casting on boss + 2 yellow lens + 1 unobtainium lens = 1 shotted from 3k range. No team comp required.
