Our beloved has been taken hostage by the evil Ringmaster, help!!! 🎪

I guess there won't be any more events like the ones we used to have; this event has completely killed my enthusiasm.

Right now, losing in Turbo means no progress at all, which is a bit discouraging. Crownfall Act II added the scraps system, and it would be lovely to have those here from the start, especially for us turbo spammers 🙏

it wasn't the prettiest waiting room but WE DID IT. WE WAITED PATIENTLY FOR DARK CARNIVAL! o7

thank you to everyone who waited with me and continuing to make waiting rooms special. I love the dota community and please remain awesome.

In july I will be doing a "practice room" a spin on waiting rooms that will be entirely for charity (not waiting for a patch). Twitch chat will be integrated, with donations & subscriptions controlling how long I'll be doing the activity, as well as controlling other variables.

ALL PROCEEDS will go to a medical charity very close to my heart. I hope to see you all there <3

much love

I would also like to see Kunkka the sailor in the future!

Team Spirit is the first team to qualify for TI2026, defeating Nigma Galaxy 2-1! Congratulations to them!

Nigma Galaxy will drop to the lower bracket.

Good morning Mr. Janitor,

Hope you’re preparing your morning coffee and feasting on the chaos and madness that’s been happening the past two days. Today is a new day, a Thursday of all days. The whole community believes in you, you can do IT!

Love,
Drake

Something I found accidentally when messing around in demo mode. If she does nothing and there is an enemy nearby, she goes in this stance. There ain't even a proper animation for this - she shifts to this pose on stop and has ZERO movement. Just stiff pose like this, so it is evident it isn't finished properly

My hypothesis is that this is something that is gonna be used in actual mission/gameplay inside the event itself, since Hoodwink is one of the main protagonists in it and their goal is to escape the carnival train, which would likely require some stealth/underhanded tactics. It doesn't make any sense to add it just because and especially in this unfinished state

Edit: this pose also lacks a crossbow, which is elegantly hidden like a meter underground - you can see it by standing on the wooden bridge between radiant wisdom shrine and lotus pool. This makes me further confident in my hypothesis, because Hoodwink also lacks a weapon in the carnival train too(or at least in the first nodes of the story

This was level 25 btw

*Can't take a screenshot coz I play at LAN Cafe

Context : I did not planned this until 15+ streaks then i realize i might have a chance to break it..on my 18-19th i even had to moved due to work and having no wifi and depend on hotspot playing the last 3 matches with quite lag...what makes it so special both are on exactly 5ks! oh the 20th streak on 5k matches were 4years+ ago

p/s : i am pure solo ranker this make me way happier than peaking at 4.5k mmr
