If you're attending The International, we're happy to announce that this year you'll be able to pre-order all the new Dota 2 merchandise that will be available at the Secret Shop, and then claim your order at KeyArena. You can view the catalog now at WeLoveFine, and preorder purchasing will begin on July 16th. Order pick-up will become available July 31st. If you won't be attending, you'll be able to purchase Secret Shop merchandise online shortly after The International.

There's nothing like watching a thrilling game of Dota with a crowd of excited fans. We know that not everyone can make it to KeyArena to see The International live, so we have the next-best thing: local events in your area. Registration for this year's Pubstomps for The International are open. Head over to our Pubstomps page to sign up to host your own Pubstomp event, or sign up to attend one of the many others that will be happening around the world, then get ready cheer for your favorite teams with your fellow fans.

In the meantime, be sure to vote for your favorite submissions to the Dota 2 Short Film Contest. The voting period ends this Friday, July 17th.

We've been impressed with the quality of items in the Collectors Cache and want to continue finding exciting new ways to feature quality community items. If you would like any single items or sets to be considered for release in conjunction with our Fall Dota Major Tournament, please submit your work to the DotA 2 workshop no later than 04:00:00 PDT on the morning of Monday August 24, 2015 (4am Seattle time). While we will choose which items should have ability particle effects and will handle implementing them ourselves, you should still keep them in mind when concepting and designing your items. There's no need to follow any specific themes or use any event tags.

With The International just around the corner, we'd like to announce an exclusive reward, the 2015 Collector's Aegis of Champions. The Collector's Aegis is a 1/5th scale alloy replica, with antique brass plating, of the winner's trophy at The International. Inscribed on the back with the year and a gold finished insignia signifying this year's theme, the Collector's Aegis is a symbol to reward those whose Compendium Level has reached 1000.



After the conclusion of the grand finals of The International, we will send the Collector's Aegis to all players with a Compendium Level of 1000 or above. Additionally, when in a Dota match, the Aegis of Champions in the player's fountain will have a special glow effect that lasts until the next International.

If you have a Level 1000 compendium by the end of the Grand Finals, you can fill in your shipping information on this website.

In other Compendium news, the Immortal Treasure III is almost ready for release. We will be releasing it and the additional Compendium Pet style by the end of the week.

The International 2015 has become the biggest event in Dota's history, and one of the largest events in competitive gaming. This wouldn't be possible without the continued support and passion from everyone in the Dota community.

The Reborn beta is now available for everyone to download and play. Check out the update page for installation instructions and to learn about a number of new technologies that we're using to improve Dota 2.

Unlike our traditional Test client, your match history, MMR, cosmetic items, and friends are shared across the two versions. However, Ranked Matchmaking is not enabled yet. We anticipate that we'll be able to turn it on in a few days, but we need more testing of the basic functionality first. Also, it is possible new items may make their first appearance in either the beta or the main client. These items may be temporarily missing from the other client while their assets are converted.

As you explore the beta, you’ll notice a few features aren’t fully functional yet, but we encourage you to play regularly and send us your feedback. We'll be updating the client frequently over the coming weeks as we bring everything online.
