NS suddenly criticized Valve over Frostivus and identified the main problem with the event

Yaroslav "NS" Kuznetsov, a streamer and former esports player, criticized Valve for the conditions of obtaining the best rewards in Frostivus 2023. During the festive event, players can receive sealed chests with arcanas and other cosmetic items, and to open them, it is necessary to buy keys.

He expressed this opinion on his personal Telegram channel.

"Event = play Dota, get a chest, buy a key, open the chest. Cool event, just what we were waiting for"

However, he admired Valve's idea of giving bans through the Highly Toxic Lump of Coal in Frostivus gifts, which surprised many players who violated the rules of the Dota 2 community.

Recall that Patch 7.35 was released for Dota 2 earlier, which significantly changed the current meta and launched the Frostivus holiday event.
