Valve released a Dota 2 update that shocked players

Last updated:  Dota 2 update

Valve released an update for Dota 2 that greatly disappointed players, as the only visible change was the lightening of the main image.

On social media, fans compared the two images, and many are puzzled as to why this was done. The thing is, most players didn't even pay attention to the cover, so Valve's decision is considered strange by many.

However, the update did include a few other minor changes. The "Thorn Throne" loading screen can no longer be sold or traded. Additionally, the item's creation date was changed from 22.10 to 07.11.

Dota 2 fans are also criticizing the developers for the fact that CS2, another game from Valve, received a major update with new maps, while the MOBA only got minor changes.

The last gameplay patch for Dota 2 was released on October 2, and since then, the meta has hardly changed, with some heroes becoming too powerful and constantly being picked in matchmaking.
