    Gameplay Patch 7.41e and Summer Scrub

    {STEAM_CLAN_LOC_IMAGE}/3703047/5179a724ee3987b0b0dab399b9ef2eaba7b2abf4.png The International approaches and we've just released an update that includes predictions, fantasy, supporter bundles, and a chance to prove your skills and win new Immortals and unlock terrains. But that's not all. Today we're also releasing patch 7.41e. Even that's not everything, though. Dota is a complicated game, and while we greatly enjoy the creativity and diligence of the dedicated players who find intricate and absurd bugs, we also like *fixing* those bugs. So today we're also releasing the Summer Scrub, a huge collection of new features as well as fixes for gameplay and content bugs, ranging from Abaddon's taunt to Zeus's Dota Plus challenge. The list is too long for this post, so we made a whole page just to list all the changes.

    A new Dota 2 update buffs Nature's Prophet and Arc Warden, but everyone's talking about a mysterious Axe 'change'

    Fresh Dota 2 patch notes have just dropped, and that means the meta will start to creak and shift under the weight of Valve's latest balance adjustments. There are some welcome changes in Dota 2 update 7.41d, along with a few that I'm sure people will question, and even a nice quality-of-life buff. The line that's got people talking, however, is a mysterious footnote for Axe that doesn't appear to have any current meaning. Is it a clue hinting at the next addition to the MOBA? My heart tells me yes. Read the full story on PCGamesN: A new Dota 2 update buffs Nature's Prophet and Arc Warden, but everyone's talking about a mysterious Axe 'change'

    Dota 2 patch 7.41c is awful news for Batrider and Puck, and keeps Roshan under wraps

    New Dota 2 7.41c patch notes have arrived to shake up the meta once again, and Valve is bringing some of the most impactful heroes in line with targeted nerfs across the roster. We're still recovering from the grand shakeup of 7.41, which removed Facets from the game altogether, but it feels like the team is honing in on that balancing sweet spot once more. That doesn't mean it's resting easy, with 81 heroes receiving adjustments in the MOBA's latest update. Here's what you need to watch out for first.

    Dota 2 patch 7.41b puts a stop to Meepo's reign of terror as Valve locks in its new meta

    Big balance updates can often have long-reaching ramifications, and Dota 2 patch 7.41b is Valve's second follow-up to the massive overhaul that saw the removal of Facets from the MOBA. Since then we've seen the climax of the ESL One Birmingham tournament and had a little more time for the player base to figure out what's hot and what's not in the current meta. Among the changes, the new Dota 2 update delivers a much-needed nerf for Meepo, who has been particularly troublesome in the right hands of late. Read the rest of the story...

    A huge new Dota 2 patch U-turns on one of Valve's biggest additions in years

    As is tradition, Valve has just unleashed one of its biggest Dota 2 updates in a while right on the cusp of a major tournament climax. With the group stages of ESL One Birmingham 2026 drawing to a close today, and the playoffs running this weekend, the developer has dropped the fittingly massive Dota 2 patch 7.41 right on our heads. The removal of Facets, a dramatic overhaul to Innate abilities, new hero spells, more items, extra siege creeps, and map changes abound. This is a big one, so let's take a look at the main talking points. Read the rest of the story...

    Dota 2 patch 7.40 adds new hero Largo, whose ultimate has one of the coolest mechanics I've seen in ages

    In a surprise to absolutely no one, my favorite Dungeons and Dragons class is Bard. As both a musician and support main, it's the perfect blend of buffs and damage, with a dash of charisma on the side. Dota 2 has always kept itself pretty close to its fantasy roots, with characters like Dragon Knight, Drow Ranger, and Enchantress, but now it's got Largo, who may as well be 'Frog Bard.' Performing (pun intended) exactly as expected, his focus is on buffing allies and bestowin' mighty fine curses on his foes, while his adorable little froglings help to deal damage. As someone who's just got back into League of Legends, I can feel Valve's MOBA calling to me. Read the rest of the story...

    Introducing Largo and Patch 7.40

    {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3703047/c09b13cda87a548b83b626fb33a32efd7895c634.png Dota is an ensemble cast, but keen observers looking through the collection of rogues, wizards, druids, and knights (not to mention two characters named "ranger") may have noticed the absence of that most maligned of hero classes: the bard. At least, up until now. Introducing Dota's newest hero: Largo, the bard. Unlike bards with your traditional bard powers (singing about current events and chord changes), Largo is the shamanic head of the bardmonk order. He tailors every song to his exact circumstances, raising his allies' spirits or, if necessary, their foot speed as they run toward battle (or away). As a frog, his prehensile tongue has, shall we say, all kinds of tricks. You can read a little about his past, or you can help explore his future in Dota right now. Today's update also includes gameplay patch 7.40....

    Immortal Draft Changes: Immortal Draft rules will now be used if any player is above 8500 MMR (roughly the top 0.5% of players). (Previously, the cutoff was 6500 MMR, roughly the top 1.5% of players.) Immortal Draft games do not show up in public match history. Replay access is restricted to game participants, and these games are not listed in Web APIs. Players who are above 8500 MMR (the top 0.5% of players) are now required to register an official name to queue for ranked. This name cannot be changed and will be displayed during the pre-game player draft phase of Immortal Draft games. Approximately half of players at this rank already have an official name registered. Players above 8500 MMR who are guaranteed to play an Immortal Draft game may not queue for ranked as a party. Unranked is unchanged.

    As a lapsed 4,500 hour veteran of Dota 2, the big new Wandering Waters update has lured me back—but despite the changes, the game still feels stuck in its ways

    There was a time when a slight tweak to a forest path would send my Dota 2 clan’s heads into a collective spin. Valve’s venerable MOBA used to be much more conservative with map changes, and big ones are still rare—but they happen, now. In 2023 the map got 40% bigger, and Roshan relocated to the edges of the map. As of last week’s Wandering Waters update, Dota 2 has more rivers, frogs and crafting than ever before, plus Roshan has returned from the suburbs... Read more.

    {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3703047/6627033e4c0db6f3f31b0757cacb2dfea0bb0067.png Much like the galactic water miners in the movie and possibly the book Dune Part 2, Dota has always been the only game in any genre that believes water is the most valuable resource in both the Dune-iverse and our universe, the universe. It's kind of crazy, then, that it's taken more than a decade for us to finally prove that bold claim by saying it out loud in print. And if that was all we did, it would be enough. But we didn't stop there. We've re-made the river that runs through the Dota map. Not only is it wider, its current can speed your movement. Conversely, the new river's new evolving, amphibious creeps can drastically slow your movement by killing you. And that's not all: How about a new resource! "Waterstone?" you say. In retrospect, that would have made sense. But it's actually called "Madstone" and yo...

    Update 7.37 Is Here

    {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3703047/973a52b28bb0fe1073c80393cde21f6b89f75462.png Since patch 7.36 affected basically every hero in the game, it's no surprise that 7.37 is mostly focused on getting the playing field leveled again. A bunch of heroes are getting new innates and facets, and there's even a rework of Medusa. 7.37 also includes more informative tooltips, which should give you a better moment-to-moment understanding of all the variables that go into murdering someone in a forest. Check out the patch notes here!
