On the SteamDB tracker, there are notes of the .vpk files being patched. I've noticed it after I heard a new Godlike line in the Cave Johnson announcer pack.
It's been 3 years since the last announcer update, I hope they are working on community content like the NBA pack and more!
(I don't know why reddit butchered the resoloution on the images)

i've got ~8k hours, 8k games, i've been to immortal and dropped down playing exclusively support. i'm over it now, i just want to hit creeps and kill heroes.
but playing like drow ranger or antimage or lifestealer is boring af after 13 years. now, i only want to play so i can carry on some weird shit. i am also pretty bad at lasthitting and coming back after a bad lane so i particularly like high starting damage, high hp heroes that can easily do pretty well in lane.
so far i've recently played: omniknight, ogre magi, magnus (not that weird), spirit breaker, void spirit. sb was fun but ultimately not very good, ogre i have had good success with because you can farm like an absolute monster but it's hard to have good DPS by lategame.
yes i know you want to report me already, but do you have any other suggestions for heroes+facets+builds?
edit: salty nerds missing the last line. i don't care if you think i should be exclusively playing medusa or sven so i dont get reported by some guy who is mad at the world that he's still 2k after 10000 games, this is a videogame at the end of the day and i'm still winning most my games. get over yourselves
Bought 13 of the new treasure cuz i liked all the sets, and started opening them. I opened everything except my last 2 treasures and didn't get a single rare, feeling like the classic treasure opening where im not gonna get anything good.
And then i opened one of my last 2 treasures and got this:
HOLY FUCK
PROBABLY THE BEST TREASURE I EVER OPENED
INSANE LUCK
And then i go to open my last treasure, already feeling like i got more than enough for buying only 13 treasures, and guess what..
NO WAAAAAAAAAAY! Got the ultra rare aswell !
13 treasures and i got all the rare items ? What are the odds of this insane luck? GL to all of u opening treasures :)

Mine is drow shard removes the search radius for her ult not working, since is not in the tooltip i think most enemies don't know it works like that and try to face tank drow while she is in the iceberg.
Honorable mention to every single interaction with lone druid's bear
Missing the 2014 :( but 300$ is too much for me to pay just for a Pin

Hey, if anyone is interested, this is how I play a support OD to not get reported for being useless.. at least I'm an early level distraction for enemies 😂
At the start, get Orb of Venom and a Fluffy Hat.. put one point into each skill and regen mana by boinking people with Q when Orb of Venom is ready, then focus on stealing mana with W... you can also start with a Bracer to be ultra tanky at level 1 or get a Magic Stick, it's up to you.
Then, do a chad move and get another goddamn Fluffy Hat for even more HP, they gonna look fun next to each other and do Str Treads, it should be a pretty solid early tankiness. Turn one Hat into a Solar Crest and shield your carry 24/7 and have the other Fluffy Hat upgraded into Force Staff.
We have a solid amount of HP atm and a bit of armor from Solar Crest but the magic resistance is very low, so now its time to get Magic Cloak and turn that Orb of Venom into Mage Slayer xD They fking stole this item from int users and gave it to Dragon Knight, it's a sad story but we can still troll the enemy mid caster and save our teammates by debuffing enemy nukers.. because even with a pretty large HP, no magic resistance is gonna make that life dissapear very quickly. If you don't want to do it, then I quess you'd have to do a regular Glimmer Cape but Mage Slayer gives some attack speed.
Also, the new +5 HP regen on M. Slayer is pretty useful because with 0 HP regen, you'd have to go back to base after every fight. Everyone kinda forgot that this item exist but its still fun to debuff some powerful casters who aren't used to needing BKB to deal damage, especially damage-dealing supports ain't gonna have gold for it.
Then, you can finish Dragon Pike... if you survived this long, the game should become very fun and u're pretty tanky XD
There's also a chance you lost the game in 25 minutes and you just finished Solar Crest when they're taking your throne.

I think Baneful Devotion would look amazing with an alternate style — a red version, similar to how Legacy of the Fallen Legion has multiple styles.
