Time to get this party started again (10 years since top), with the latest workshop items we may have missed because of so much good Dota going on! So until TI5, look at what the artists have been up to lately, which involves unicorns, kings and king hunters. What? No, I'm not crazy! Look for yourself!

1. Relics of the Sundered King



Wraith King set by ChiZ

Okay, so maybe the helmet isn't the best thing that ever happened to this set, but the rest of it is pretty damn good! The armour, fit for a king, has that eerie green glow we've become accustomed to and the moth-eaten red velvet cape is obviously the right choice to remain in lore. The big bracers also give him that clunky, heavy feeling we've grown to expect from Skel... Wraith King. Hm.

2. 16 Custom Emoticons



Emoticons by Endrit & Notoriouses

Dota 2's new guilty pleasure, the emoticons with our favourite heroes, is here and the race to create the best and funniest begins! This set contains 16 fairly basic emotes that feel like they should have been in the game already, so let's hope these get added at some point. Until then, I'm sure other artists are dying to know what your suggestions would be, to help get their creative juices flowing.


Give the artists your love for this pack here!


3. Wanderer of Light



Keeper of the Light set by Paradox

I'll admit, Ezalor riding a unicorn is the awesomest (yes, it's a word, I just made it one) thing I've ever seen! There's also the Gandalf-like long hair that just screams nerdgasm, plus the loading screen is totes cool. Okay, stupid talk aside, it's a good set and honestly it makes me happy to see that artists think about heroes other than the usual suspects. We need more items for non-mainstream heroes!


Shout out your opinion to the artists here.


4. The Hunter of Kings



Lycan set by Danidem

Definitely the star of the show this week, this set will capture your attention from the start, thanks to the artist's talent and the visible amount of work put into the creation itself. Beautifully drawn and creative, the wolves and his own wolf form were redesigned to match Lycan's garments, making this set a flawless whole that makes you both admire and be jealous of artists with such a high skill level.


Enjoy, rate, love it here.


5. Weapon Master



Juggernaut set by Paradox

So Paradox will be featured two times in our top this week, because apparently he (or she) has been hard at work lately! I dare to say this set is better than the Ezalor one, simply because it combines lore with creativity in a way that it still looks fresh and new, without bothering the more conservative lot of the Dota 2 community. Props to Paradox for a great job this week!


You can go rate this set into oblivion here!


Honorable mentions:
Era's Morphling - Skadi Rising by Danidem, Anuxinamoon & T_Vidotto


We wanted to show you some sets that were launched during the DreamHack - ESL - TI4 craziness, so maybe some very few of you haven't stumbled over them yet. Here we have Danidem at it again, making a Morphling set for Fnatic's Era. Discover its detailed look here!


Li'l Nova by Hudston


Hudston definitely hit the jackpot with this courier idea, because it may just be the cutest thing I've ever seen! You'll have a hard time sniping this courier when you see the little Nova leaping about. Give the artist your love here!


Berserker's Edge by Nateo


A manly set for one of the manliest heroes in game and it looks like it belongs in a Game of Thrones meets The Lord of the Rings spinoff. Which is a great thing! I'd honestly start playing Centaur just for this set, it's so amazing. Check out his abs from all angles here!



The top is back, despite a 2-month hiatus in which tournaments were covered, tears were shed and money was won. So expect it to be a weekly thing again, always on Sundays! Y'know, until it isn't again. ANYWAY.

GL HF.


OMG top is back, I must vote!
