These days before TI4 feel like somewhat of a holiday, like Christmas or Valentine's Day, making us giddy with excitement. There's been a new tab added to the workshop to showcase the best and wackiest ideas our artists can come up with as far as TI merchandise goes. T-Shirts, watches or even briefs, read more to see the best submissions!

1. Sand King - Sandstorm



T-shirt by Hinata and Mig

I think we all expected something like this to surface sooner than later and we're glad it did! It's the inside joke that possibly all DotA players know and share, so why not put it on a t-shirt? Now if anyone asks what song is playing again, you can just point towards this rocking sand devil.


On a white, beige or brown tee, choose your favorite and sing along: "DUDUDUDU DUDU!" here!


2. Maiden of Fire



Poster by kunkka

Everybody loves Lina (looking at you, Emeldavi)! Our sexy fire queen gets a special treatment which emphasizes her strong parts, bound to leave the passers-by wanting more. Beautiful colors and a feel of lightness and grace make this poster a must have, and I wouldn't mind for it to become a loading screen in the game as well. (No article without a loading screen, you should know me by now!)


Maybe you can convince kunkka to draw other heroes as well, comment here!


3. Radiant Creep



T-shirt by EPICFATLIPZ

I think creeps have started to reject the idea of being used just for their money, so they're slowly making lobby to be included more in the community. I like to imagine they're still divided into radiant and dire, and there's some sort of contest going on. So far, the radiant team seems to be ahead:


The detail on this t-shirt is amazing! Rate and ask the artists for more here.


4. Roshan Respawn Watch



Watch by Dog of Duty and Guta

This item is something I would never have come up with myself and yet I wonder why this doesn't exist already! I would replace the leather band with a rubber one, but that is only my own personal taste. What do you guys think about it? Too nerdy? Or totally elegant and awesome?


You just have to show your love for this idea, go here!


5. Rubick's Cube



T-shirt by Lozeng3r

No words to express how amazing this tee design is (okay, maybe there are a few), with his alien head and cube full of skills he's ready to steal from his enemies! A neat design and possibility to use on almost any color t-shirt give this artwork a pretty high chance to see this hanging at the TI booths. If it is, I WANT ONE!


Love, love, love the artist riiiiiiight here and check out his other designs!


Honorable mention:
Faceless Void Briefs by Rus-Putin and Natusik


You've probably already seen this around in the community, but if not, let me introduce you to one of my favorite creations so far. Get your perfect DotA 2 gag gift right here!


TI merchandise involves as much work and creativity as regular workshop submissions and it would only be fair for these items to receive as much love and attention as the other ones, in their short stay in the workshop before the big event. Found what you'll be looking for at The International yet?
