Hey everyone and welcome to the 27th patch update! This week we have quite a few changes and we get Treant Protector too! Also, Valve wants to remind us of The International and the new teams being added every day!
So, this week's main features are:
After many disputes, Blizzard and Valve reach a settlement on the DOTA trademark! Blizzard basically drops the claims on the game and changes the name of their Blizzard DOTA to Blizzard All-Stars. Moreover, Blizzard will be allowed to keep using the DOTA name but only for noncommercial use for the player community and Valve will keep using the DOTA 2 name for its in-development game.
Aka? Valve wins, DOTA is a registered trademark now! Great news for Valve, the community and DOTA2.
The International 2012 has been officially announced! As per the rumors it will take place at Seattle, Washington, USA on the last weekend of August, from the 31st to September 2nd! More information about tickets, entrance and invitations will be coming up at dota2.com! The only thing we know for sure at this time is that Na'Vi and DK are the only two teams that have been officially invited up to now!
What do you guys think? Are you excited? Will you attend what will most probably be the best DOTA 2 LAN Championship ever?
Stay tuned with all the news, teams and updates of "The International" here!
Hey everyone! Sorry for being slightly late with this update! :P You've probably heard the news and read the changes that the 26th patch update brought, we will just post them for anyone that hasn't! How did you find Phantom Lancer? Is he good? Do you like the port?

Hello hello, welcome to the patch update number 25! This week's patch brings many interesting cool new features! First of all, the new HUD, the new Items icons and new Courier UI Although it is a quite big update, sadly no heroes are included this week.
So, this week's main features are:
As you might have heard, Gabe Newell gave an interview to Seven Day Cooldown in which he stated clearly that DOTA 2 will be free-to-play - it'll have some twists, but that's the easiest way for people to think about it.
Let the analysis begin! After all the speculating and discussing, even arguing at times, Gabe clears the waters; DOTA 2 will be F2P*! You probably noticed the * didn't you? Well, as far as we know it means is "with a twist"! In his interview Gabe also stated clearly that he dislikes the freemium model, so don't expect anything similar to the model of LoL, for example. Well, it awaits to be seen, but knowing Valve - and trusting it - I kinda feel it is going to be an interesting and innovating model!
Hello everyone and welcome to the patch update number 24! In this patch we get Pandaren Brewmaster added to the game, a few bug fixes and a kickass new animation on Nevermore's Requiem of Souls! You have to check it out!
So, this week's main features are:
Hello everyone! After a period of two weeks the DOTA 2 Team is back and they bring us another patch update! :) Sadly, no new hero this week though the hint clearly stated that Brewmaster is the coming one! Nevertheless though there are many interesting changes and additions.
So, this week's main features are:
Welcome to the 22nd patch update of DOTA 2! If you are thinking "wasn't Thursday the patch day?" you are right, this weeks patch comes one day sooner and it also announces that there will be no patch for the coming week!
