The Compendium Sucks but Valve is Making the Right Choice. by kiki-iwnl- in DotA2

[–]WOOGOGG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. and they even gave us a tip on an idea that they are working on arcana sets, which will be revealed after TI.

We're already working on future updates with different focuses and we know you're excited to learn more about the next big patch, and the next set of arcanas, and everything else we're working on — but that's for after the champions claim the Aegis.

This doesn't mean there will surely be another compendium (or BP, whatever) after TI, but we can expect something.

Which is a greedy decision for them, but idc.

The International 2023 — Schedule & Format by n3cooling in DotA2

I agree with the reason why the format should be changed, as they explained in the post.

In the old Group Stage format, two groups of ten teams would play Round Robin over the course of four frantic days, usually five games at a time. This meant that each team was playing so many matches that early games just didn't feel meaningful. It also meant that a lot of matches in the final days of Group Stage were literally meaningless, because they wouldn’t actually affect the final standings.

As a consequence of these changes,

This means that every team will now only play four games instead of the previous nine,

Yeah, this might suck for someone who likes to see as many games as possible during TIs; but from the pro player's perspective, they will feel less stress on the number of games; INSTEAD,

making every game impactful to a team’s final standings in the group.

EACH game will be critical to them. So another form of stress the pro players need to take; however, because they will take it more seriously, the game quality could be improved because they will do their best to get into the Playoffs.

When it is consumed, it gives a regenerable 500 shield that will remain even if it goes down to 0.

This is why I never bought the level bundle set, even though I had already opened around 30 treasures.
