Major changes in Dota 2 in The Summer Client Update
New Player Behavior System in Dota 2
From the ground up, the developers have created a new system for evaluating behavior and complaints that will improve the lives of both judges and players.
New Rendering Features in Dota 2
Valve added various rendering features to the game. Shadows, particle lighting and tone maps have been improved.
New Armory in Dota 2
The developers of Dota 2 completely dismantled the arsenal and rebuilt it to make it easier for players to do whatever their heart desires with their accessories.

- New: Bounty rune spawn locations now show on the minimap before the horn using desaturated icons.
- New: Added an option to rebind the Alternative Cast Ability switch key under the Advanced Hotkeys Interface tab.

- Fixed Invoker Wex sometimes granting the wrong amount of mana regeneration
- Fixed Allied Heroes being able to refresh a Hand of Midas that doesn't belong to them
- Fixed Wraith King skeletons sometimes ignoring Wraithfire Blast when selecting their target
- Fixed Spirit Breaker having an infinite shield when taking the level 25 talent
- Fixed Riki's Level 25 Right Talent not displaying the proper cooldown reduction
- Fixed being able to blink to one specific location off the top left corner of the map
- Fixed various tooltip issues with Invoker's Ghost Walk
- Fixed universal heroes not showing up correctly in Ability draft UI tooltips
- Fixed Overwhelming Blink doing 100 damage over six seconds instead of 100% of the caster's strength over 6 seconds
- Fixed Windranger's Agh's upgrade invisibility effect not visually applying for allies
Dota 2 developers also said that they will release an update dedicated to The International 2023:
The International is just around the corner, and the final qualified teams will soon be decided. To kick off the celebration ahead of all the action in Seattle, we've got another update in the works tied closely to the event that we'll release in late September. We can hardly wait to cheer on the epic Dota to come.
