Valve pulled a huge fast one on all Dota 2 fans. Beginning as a celebration of festivities and camaraderie known as Frostivus, the event has officially been cancelled. Instead, Greevils have their own plans and have taken over the world of Dota 2.
The Greeviling is being called a "time of endless carnage" as the Greevils run amok through the lands. If you happen to kill a wild Greevil, you will be rewarded with a gift it spits from the depths of its belly.
The start of the event also includes new items in the Dota 2 store, including the winners of the Polycount Contest.
Misery piled on misery! As the cold closed in, how we looked forward to Frostivus. Instead we get The Greeviling! The shops have been plundered, our gifts ripped open, our precious items scattered through the woods by a dire tide of Greevils! What caused this swarming chaos? Who hatched all those Greevil eggs? Who can we blame for burying us in this horde of mischievous imps? What's that you say? It's our own damn fault?
They're everywhere! All through the woods, giftsnatching Greevils are enjoying our gifts in their foul dens. They will only surrender them by force! Should you face these wild Greevils, be sure you bring your own well-behaved Greevils along. And when the going gets tough, blow your whistle and call your Greevil! He will put you somewhere safe (we're not exactly sure where) and take matters into his own grubby claws!
