It hasn't been long since Gaimin Gladiators took home the championship at Lima Major. However, different Dota 2 teams around the world don't have that much time to relax since the Spring Tour officially begins today. Though making things a bit difficult was the release of Update 7.32e, which surely have affected the meta.
Supporters Club
For fans, that means it's time again to show their support for their favorite teams with the Supporters Club. An initial set of supporters clubs have been released with more to be added in the coming days.
Teams able to submit content to feature in a Supporters Club bundle get 50% of all of their team's bundle sales. Meanwhile, fans who choose to support teams get increasing amounts of content provided by their favorite team(s) depending on the tier purchased. The tiers are:
- Bronze Tier
- A badge for your favorite team which will appear in your friends list, player profile, Versus Screen, and in-game scoreboard. Swappable if you purchase more than one team's bundle.
- 1 Team Fantasy Player Pack.
- 1 Basic Fantasy Player Pack.
- Silver Tier
- All perks of the Bronze Club.
- Sprays to liven up your map and loading screens.
- 2 additional Team Player Card Packs.
- 6 additional Basic Player Card Packs.
- Gold Tier
- All perks of the Bronze and Silver Clubs.
- A special in-game HP-bar badge, as well as emoticons and Chat Wheel lines to proclaim your allegiance in-game.
- 3 additional Team Player Card Packs.
- 7 additional Basic Player Card Packs.
DPC Fantasy
In addition to the Supporters Club, fans can also start the DPC Fantasy. What's going to happen is that for each week long period, fans can set up a Fantasy roster composed of:
- Two Core Player Cards.
- One Mid Player Card.
- Two Support Player Cards.
Player cards on the roster earn Fantasy points based on their performance in matches during that period. Silver and Gold cards have stat bonuses which earn more points.
At the start of each new tour, everyone gets 10 starter packs. Additional Player Card Packs can be earned by winning a game of Dota 2. Team Packs, meanwhile, can be bought directly from the Player Cards tab in the Watch section.
Dota 2 is available on Steam.
