(opens in new tab) has introduced a new hero at world championship The International 11, with the revenant gunslinger Muerta set to convey the moba's hero complete up to 124 early subsequent year. She's a black-and-gold creature, possibly some form of automaton, that wields a pistol and offers in journey between existence and death. For now, all we've got bought is a trailer(opens in new tab), however that trailer's packed with some neat details.
"An enduring revenant exhibits herself with guarantees of a ruinous reckoning to follow. Pierce the veil between the dwelling and the damned as a new hero — Muerta — arrives to hang-out the lanes in early 2023," says the respectable description.
With a flowery aesthetic that blends the aesthetic skulls of Mexico's day of the useless with a profoundly video-gamey neon, and Spanish-speaking gamers are already sounding off in video remarks with pleasure and requests for a Spanish-language voice pack for her. Muerta guarantees to be a hero that has a lot in frequent with the modern-day Dota two stable—at least lorewise.
Because it turns out she's been teased when you consider that at least February, when the Revenant's Brooch object used to be brought to Dota with the description "The cursed brooch of a fallen guardian who stalks always between the veil of lifestyles and death." In the trailer, what is possibly Muerta's portrait on a candle-lit altar is carrying the Revenant's Brooch. Given the center of attention of that object on assault injury and speed, and Muerta's wielding a gun, my money's on an auto-attacking Carry-role hero that can use or make use of ethereal effects.
Muerta's design, coloration, and visible consequences have a lot in frequent with Death Prophet and Wraith King, two different spirit-themed characters who oftentimes return from the dead. Also, I assume she's the first normal-human-sized hero to use a gun? The others are all little Keenfolk like Sniper, Gyrocopter, and Snapfire.
Last year's new hero used to be Primal Beast, a massive indignant crocodile thing.
In different Dota two news, Valve has introduced in a deeply and profoundly extraordinary video that there is an announcer pack on the way for Portal 2's Cave Johnson, the surprisingly upbeat CEO of Aperture Laboratories performed through J.K. Simmons. You can watch it on YouTube however I'll embed it below.
