Dota 2 Compendium 2023: fans have called It trash

Many fans are dissatisfied with Valve's new Compendium. Dota 2 developers decided to reintroduce this analog to the Battle Pass for the first time since 2016, but the community remains unhappy.

Fans are expressing their frustration on relevant Reddit threads. The issue is that, unlike the Battle Pass, the Compendium is more focused on the esports aspect of The International 2023. This means there is less emphasis on skins and cosmetic items and more room for team stickers, tracking tournament stages, and other elements.

This is precisely what has upset players. Many were hoping to find arcanas, cosmetics, and other exciting items inside. Comments highlight that the Compendium is exclusively tailored for esports enthusiasts, lacking content for regular players.

It's worth noting that despite the reduced price, the Compendium is selling relatively slowly, negatively impacting the TI12 prize pool.
