The 2024 Frostivus event has brought significant changes to Dota 2, featuring the return of the festive game mode "Frostivus" and introducing various gameplay updates.

Players can now earn Winter Treasures by completing challenges in the event, offering exclusive cosmetic rewards and seasonal items. The treasure contains new sets for popular heroes like Crystal Maiden, Phantom Assassin, and Dragon Knight.

A major highlight is Valve's aggressive stance against cheaters, implementing extensive ban waves targeting script users and account buyers. This enforcement aims to improve game integrity and competitive fairness.

Notable gameplay changes include:

• Rebalanced hero abilities for better competitive balance
• New neutral item drops specific to the winter season
• Updated matchmaking algorithm to reduce queue times
• Enhanced performance optimizations for better gameplay experience

The event runs through January 2024, giving players ample time to collect winter-themed rewards and participate in seasonal activities. Daily and weekly challenges offer additional opportunities to earn rewards.

For returning players, the classic Frostivus game mode features enhanced mechanics and new objectives, making it more engaging than previous iterations.

The update also addresses several community-reported bugs and introduces quality-of-life improvements to enhance the overall gaming experience. Players can access all new content by updating their game client to the latest version.

Note: The Frostivus event and its rewards are time-limited, encouraging players to participate during the winter season to unlock exclusive content.
