Valve responded to player complaints and released an update for Dota 2 that will significantly change the functionality of Dota Plus.

This was reported by Denis "sikle" Lerman, Team Spirit analyst, on his Telegram channel.

"The localization files have been updated, and every item has been thoroughly reworked. Now the recommendations on when and which item to pick will be more accurate: during the planning stage, at the start of the game, or in the late game."

The analyst noted that the update will now significantly change one of the main paid features of the Dota 2 subscription. Previously, players complained that the Dota Assistant offered extremely ridiculous and nonsensical item builds in some matches. This issue should now be resolved, sikle emphasized. According to him, the recommendations will now change during the match's planning stage, its start, and the late game.
