Techies have hit the main client!

Valve delivers Techies to the main client as promised, so all pick might not be the best choice for the next few days. The suicidal trio were part of Valve's TI4 milestone and will undoubtably present you with a very unique experience. The update also welcomes All Random Deathmatch and the All-Hero Challenge.

Ability draft may be losing its appeal but the new All Random Deathmatch mode where players become a new hero every time they respawn, with each team getting a total of 40 respawns, might be of some interest to you. The other community additions in the update can be found here. If you've somehow missed the Techies hype train and were not familiar with the hero in DOTA1, the video guide below should get you up to speed before you risk a public matchmaking game.

In an announcement today,  Alliance has made their roster changes official with both  s4 and EGM leaving the squad.  While it was already publicly known that the long-standing  Alliance roster would be changed, this heartfelt announcement relates some of the history of the team, their accomplishments, and a statement from each remaining team member.   s4 currently plays with Team Secret, and  EGM is on the  Team Tinker squad.

As expected, it seems that every is reflecting on the change very positively and with much enthusiasm for what the future holds for all involved.  We wish the best of luck to all and look forward to seeing what this next chapter holds!
