Today we take a look at some of the strongest mid-laners in Dota 2 that will help you gain MMR or simply win games in normal Dota 2 matches.

The meta of Dota 2 changes frequently, and it’s nothing like it was a few years ago. Still, the mid position is the second most important position in the game, and that’s why it’s called the position 2.

Almost no pub game starts without a fight for who will take the mid lane, because people know how much of an impact...

Do you run a city? Inquire within.

Valve is already on the hunt for cities that want to host the 11th Annual International Dota 2 Championships, or "The International" for short. The International will be held in the Summer of 2021. The first event was held in Cologne, Germany in the far off time of August 2011.

I bet you thought this game shut down years ago.

The good news is that Battleborn isn't dead. Who knew, right? The bad news is that it will be once January 2021 rolls around. 2K announced via Twitter that they will be deactivating the servers for Battleborn in a little over a year from now.

They also pulled the game from every digital storefront they could. I'm sure the millions of you that were still on the fence about picking it up for a year full of fun and merriment...

Another year, another batch of broken esports records.

Valve announced today that the ninth annual Dota 2 International Championships (The International 9) has smashed records? Which records? A lot of esports ones.

First off, this marks the first back-to-back victory for any team in the history of The International. That's right, OG won it all this year just as they did in 2018. I'm sure a lot of fans had that spoiled for them thanks to a random email from Twitch. Good...

Over $33 million is up for grabs.

Valve just passed along word that the Main Event festivities for The International Dota 2 Championships for 2019 have officially kicked off. This is all going down at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai, China.

This is the ninth annual event and, once again, it has broken all sorts of records by having the biggest community-driven prize pool of over $33 million. First place is looking to get $15,276,981 once all is said and done. I think...

At long last, the waking nightmare is over for Dota 2 fans. They can rest easy now because the 7.20 update is now live for the game. The changelog is long and the item changes are numerous.

I'm not even going to repost the changelog here, that's just how long it is.

You Dota fans go have fun now. From what I gather, this update has been a bit of a wait for you....

This pack is "free" to everybody that owns the Battle Pass. Get a look at the "behind the scenes" video below and then listen to every single one of his lines in the video below it.

It's pretty good. It's actually really damn good.

What do you get when even an "action MOBA/arena brawler" jumps onto the battle royale bandwagon? You apparently get the Battlerite: Battle Royale mode that was just announced today. This new mode is slated to arrive this Summer and will combine its action MOBA roots/arena brawler gameplay with battle royale gameplay. It will feature gameplay on a map that is "30 times larger than the standard arena mode map" with up to 20 players.
