Dota 2: Player cards and TI8 predictions updated

Valve listened to the community and decided to add some new features to this year’s TI Compendium.

If you already own The International 2018 Battle Pass, you probably already have a few player card packs. Starting today, they can be opened and Valve has improved the process so you can see all 5 cards in 1 click. Another nice feature is “recycling common cards” at the same time. This will save you a lot of time if buying a bunch of packs. This option allows you to recycle all the green leaves you’ve been infected with, leaving you with only the Silver and Gold cards to decide for yourself which leaves to keep and which to recycle.

Currently, you can use 30 dust to buy exactly one player card. 50 dust to get a Premium pack or 10 dust to get a regular player pack. But if you are hunting for Gold cards, this new feature is very good.

Collecting a full squad formation will unlock a teleport effect with that team’s logo. In addition, if you have enough Silver or Gold squad, you will be “upgraded effects”. Just like in previous years, Battle Pass owners can choose their favorite team, but now Valve has added more effects for you. With this year, we’re adding Spray, which can be unlocked with the Battle Pass: picking your favorite team will give you Spray with that team’s logo.

The latest update will unlock all predictions for The International 2018 including hero, team, player and other tournament predictions. Good luck finding the Gold cards and correctly predicting the information about this tournament.
