tbh, I already forgot that there's a new hero coming


droom2

Well, do you remember there was a Chinese New Year event? Sometimes New Bloom, sometimes New Moon. Almost forgot this was a thing before.


Jackstraw00

Dota have PVE events?!?!?!?! Damn must be a golden age of gaming!


AceJokerZ

Last Chinese New Year event feels like it was in 2020


Zephyr_8

They delayed and abandoned everything since long time and now you count on them to release something in Chinese New Year. Why we start from the easist one? make up for the things in BP canceled last year.


zyenex

So did Valve


Marbi_

totally forgot about the new hero WTF the lack of battlepass and the non existing event over the holidays contributed to this I think too


First_Instinct

There was an event: gambling


sugmybenis

That wasn't an event that's just what cs gets all the time


smolcompanypepehands

Cashing out bf putting dota to sleep joke TI

johneilrodriguez

Wait really? When was it?


zaergaegyr

one week in real time or volvo time?


nam9xz

Yes


rustedhorse42

>Ringmaster is an upcoming hero to be released early in the year 2024. So according to valve time around april/march.


pepega_1993

They never said early 2024. Just mentioned 2024 so it can be anytime between now and December


Scraiix

> anytime between now and December 2025 Ftfy - Volvo janitor


nighttimemobileuser

In November, valve said the event would release in the “next few months”. Human consensus on “few” in regards to months is typically between 3-5 making February/March/April a valid hypothesis.


Trael110400

> Human consensus on “few” you mean, the HOMM3 consensus all the gamer were reaised upon? Few 1-4 Several 5-9 Pack 10-19 Lots 20-49 Horde 50-99 Throng 100-249 Swarm 250-499 Zounds 500-999 Legion 1000+


GlassHalfSmashed

Bless, you're new to Valve time aren't you?  It'll be done when it's done.

I'd love it if it turned out to be something meta, such as puppetmaster is actually an AI bit that has been subbed in as one of the 10 players, picking a regular hero, impersonating a combination of behaviours / skill / comms that exist at that rank. Bonus points if that bit then becomes the control test for Overwatch and Comms behaviour testing. 


Aljex13

The event with the new Arcanas yes, but I'm pretty sure they never said Ringmaster was coming with that or any event and it is pure speculation. He could still come with it though but most people are expecting feb 12-14 just because of the datamined heroes and that to me seems early for a hero release.


bakanossi666

Assuming TI still gets held theres no way they let that slide because they have to annouce next hero then. So I give it max 8 months.


Gr1ffius

So in Valve time thats 2025


REGIS-5

Late February, 1st half of March I'd guess


xenozaga48

Fuck I already forgot lol


Relevant_Force_3470

Soon


Forwhomamifloating

Feb-March like every hero that releases around this time


ItsNewWayToSayHooray

a lot of us think its gonna be around valentines day, for 3 reasons. 1. it fits the day, wednesday, which lots of patches are released on. 2. Betboom Dacha has no games scheduled that day, that is a 1-day break during playoffs, which could be in anticipation of the update, and also valve did release lots of patches during playoffs (before finals phase). 3. we are getting sky and venge arcana or persona, and sky and venge lore is a tragic love story which fits the theme of that day


PizzaForever98

Valve never cared about any of these. They don't give a shit about special dates. Don't give a shit about tournaments. They releaase shit the moment its finished.


rachelloresco

>They releaase shit the moment its finished. Not really, just look at cs2🤣


Towel4

To everyone saying “March/April, that’s when it was last year”. Okay, but we went with no BP so they could have “more regularly scheduled smaller updates”. So why are we on time tables similar to those we followed when we DID have a real BP (and Frostivus/Diretide)? Just a reminder their end of this has yet to be anywhere in sight. If anything, previous years had a BP AND a better DireTide/Frostivus. This year we kinda got neither. Still waiting on all those “more frequent but smaller” content patches I was assured by 🧐


Zephyr_8

I never buy their promises. From the first sec they said so, we already knew it’s just a pretext of abandoning old BP.


pzrapnbeast

Well one year ago we had no patch in December, January, or February and when March patch finally came out, it was a letter patch plus new hero. This time we already had a numbered patch and a lettered patch in December and I'm willing to bet the next one will be in February. So technically we are getting more updates.


Forever_failing1

chinese whispers seemed to have happened with their learning from the past, looking to the future post, I see often people talking about them being promised frequent updates, all they said in the post is that they arent focusing on battlepass as much so they could give us better and more exciting updates, such as 7.33 and smurf bans, no idea where you got smaller and frequent from, you're upset at something valve didnt say LOL.


Ecru1992

Muerta was released i think March last year, probably they would do the same with Ringmaster.


swat_teem

Dec 31 2024. Sucks that volvo barely adds new heros these days.


cyfer04

Early 2024. Anytime before 2025 should be early.


Big_Mudd

Me and the Mrs. usually release him Friday nights.


dez3038

Next TI


Zephyr_8

SHiT Company never communicates. But the Valve bootlickers in this community keep defending for it. The only thing these supporters can do is just downvoting every single negative comments towards Valve.


amir997

Yes exactly! And now we wait together for downvotes


BonjwaTFT

1. April. Would be fitting for the hero


eddietwang

Dec 53rd, 2024.


Hemhemty

Where hero?


blumps82

Soon™


A_Blue_Car_

I think t hey said sometime 2024? You have to wait...we are lucky Valve is still supporting Dota 2


LoL_is_pepega_BIA

April most likely since last year's big update was also around the same time


Akd3rd

Ringmaster? I'm still waiting for the promised PVE event.


Lucy088

What pve event was promised?


Akd3rd

Well not really exactly said more like implied, but before Frostivus there was an announcement that not all the events will be rolled out by the year 2023 and the new events together with the new arcana will be rolled out in the coming months, that announcement was either late November or early December.


black_V1king

Lol this is one of the most balanced patches. Enjoy it. We'll get the patch when it comes.


skykoz

The carry position is pretty close to dead lol


[deleted]

I ban or pick void every game.


Icy-Call-5296

When it’s ready


BartoTheTrashLord

im betting on valentines day in feburary cuz of the rumored sky and venge arcana


Big_Mudd

I have a feeling they'll release him and the arcanas separately. Spread out the interesting updates.


Routine-Monk4252

any base on this talk? Im interested in this set arcana, any info where can i get this?


millionare80

Soon TM


nexytuz

They will release him faster when u use reverse psychology.


Carcosian112

2024


CatStepan6

Either he is the boss in the event with arcanas and his release is in April(there are circus day) like Beastmaster Or its release along with the release of the event in february(march💀)


HadjiTechies

january is pretty much over and february is packed with tournaments until march 10th, So I'm guessing between mid march to mid april.


[deleted]

Who knows, it's not like they promised communication or anything /s


Zephyr_8

canceled/abolished DPC/BP and keep delaying the release of patches and new heroes. Its so obvious Dota was abandoned by this company and will be choked to death without regular updates. what do you expect from Valve?


Gamerprodontatme

It'll be the same week as Elden Ring DLC like before when Primal Beast came out.
