The International 2017 Collector's Cache Call to Arms
March 08, 2017
The International 2017 is just over the tournament horizon, and this year's event will have an aquatic theme. With that in mind, we invite all Dota 2 Workshop creators to dive deep in search of sunken treasures to include in this year's Collector's Cache. We're fishing for a collection of items that are equally at home hiding in the murky waters of Dark Reef or swimming in the possession of the Deep Ones.
To that effect, we are now officially accepting submissions from Community artists that will be considered for inclusion in The International 2017 Collector’s Cache. Don't feel restricted to heroes that already have an established aquatic connection—we're interested to see how you hook in as many designs as possible. As in the past, we would like to ask artists to avoid the use of any concepts that involve human skulls, blood, and gore.
Make sure to mark your submissions with the "Collector’s Cache 2017" tag when tendering items to the Workshop. All submissions must be on the Dota 2 Workshop by May 15. We encourage all Dota fans to regularly visit the Workshop and vote through the Queue to ensure your voices are heard in the selection process.
In the meantime, our partners at WeLoveFine are also ready to cast their net and haul in some new designs for this year's Dota 2 merchandise release. If you've got a concept you think will catch on with fans, submit your design to the Workshop with the "Merchandise" tag and see how much community support you can reel in.

Winter Treasure III
March 04, 2017
Winter Treasure III is now available, featuring new item sets for Gyrocopter, Weaver, Nyx Assassin, Windranger, Razor, Naga Siren, and Chen, as well as the chance to unlock a Very Rare Rubick set or Extremely Rare Dragon Knight set.
Additionally, today's release makes a change to the item slots used by Chen's mounts. Instead of slots for both a mount and the mount's armor, Chen will now have a single item slot for his mount, and any armor will be included in the mount's model. To fit the hero's new item slot requirements, older Chen mounts will be converted from two separate items into one item. This should allow for the release of higher quality Chen mounts in the future.
Today's update also includes adjustments to the visual mechanics of TP Scrolls, the return of the hero inspection panel, and an experimental change to matchmaking that will run over the course of this weekend. For more details on all of the changes in this update, you can find the changelog here.
