TI Compendium access for free
As of Thursday/Friday (depending on your timezone), the 2021 TI Compendium is now available to all Dota players for free. The remainder of the Compendium will unlock prior to the event. A key feature will be the Player Cards which have been released as well. You get the first ten packs for free and win get an additional one for every match you win. So if this is no incentive to play Dota, we don't know what is!
There are also team packs available for $0.49. 50% of the money will be forwarded to the teams. Purchasing team packs guarantees that the best player in the pack will be from the team you are supporting. For more information about the Compendium, Player Cards, and Supporters Clubs head directly to the announcement.
Valve also dropped some updates to the Spectator HUDs. In addition, they are withdrawing their support for older systems, which is only stated at the end of their announcement. "You will need to have a 64-bit machine and OS to run Dota" it says.
