Tonight at the International 5, and All-Star DOTA 2 match took place which showcased a brand new game mode for the MOBA. Â 24-player matches will be available via custom game modes in DOTA 2 Reborn. Â The current player cap in DOTA 2 is 10, and this upgrade is likely attributable to Source 2.
DOTA 2 Reborn is slated to launch just after the International Tournament, which concludes on Saturday.
The action on screen was chaotic with the increased player count. Â Teams stacked with pros and amateurs were racking up kills left and right in the event that capped off a day of tournament play.
The pros still have two days to stake their claim on over 18 million dollars in prize money at the tournament. Â While some fans expected Valve to reveal a new hero this year, much like they did with Techies, they did not. Â With two days to go it’s still unclear whether a new hero is still in the cards.
