Ἄργος μέν, ἐς πλεῖστον ἀφικομένην δυνάμεως πόλιν ἐπὶ τῶν καλουμένων ἡρώων, ὁμοῦ τῇ μεταβολῇ τῇ ἐς Δωριέας ἐπέλιπε τὸ ἐκ τῆς τύχης εὐμενές·

Ἄργος is the topic; μέν sets up an omitted or following contrast. ἀφικομένην agrees with πόλιν and expresses the extent to which Argos had reached power in the age of the heroes. The finite verb ἐπέλιπε takes τὸ ... εὐμενές as subject and Ἄργος as its understood experiencer/topic; τῇ μεταβολῇ is temporal/concomitant, while τῇ ἐς Δωριέας specifies the change.
