Will control groups also be saved locally? I turned cloud saving off for Dota.

I have a question, though people may already have brooded over this:

The quality of the item drops you are eligible for is now tied to your Dota profile level. You can see your current drop level in your profile page

I initially thought this meant that the items you get when you level up were tied to your profile level, but does it actually mean, that the drops you're eligible for (whenever a match ends) is capped by your Dota profile level? I'm guessing the last one?

Its pretty obvious they made it a pack to get people to pay more for it when most people probably only want the announcer.

Most of the items you find at end game are level-up ones anyway I think buuuuut

Doesn't matter both are Capped by your "level". Compendium OP

Level-Up items aren't shown at the end of a match screen, they are placed into your backpack seperately

Based on 93 levels up I'd say you are wrong.

I have been known to be incorrect before though.

o.o well nvm then.

Still, level 4 finding mythicals means that its very much not there to reward the hardcore players. Not that I mind.

Its probably just there to prevent Botting for drops. which is a feasible problem in F2P games.

One would assume bots would manage to play more than 40 or so games >_>

I'm guessing its more to decentivize smurfs as well as to give newer players something to work towards.

Yeah but you gain far less XP for losses than wins, and one would assume bots manage to lose quite a few of their games.

also its possible that after 70-80 games Valve can detect bots, so by gating mythicals past that point means they are effectively gating bots out of them.
