Dota 2's Sideshop shut down in latest battle pass update

The International 2020 battle pass has divided Dota 2 fans ever since it was released last week. Now, after making one round of changes based on community feedback, Valve has decided to make another set - this time altering several features so that they work similar to previous years.

Thanks to an update pushed live earlier today (June 5), the Weekly Wagering system now works how it used to in last year's battle pass. This means there will be the same amount of battle points available to players from wagers.

In addition to changing the wagering system, Valve has also removed Sithil and Quirt's Sideshop from the game. The shop was meant to give players more opportunities to do more with their earnings, but the community didn't like it. The Sideshop has now been replaced by a recycling system similar to that of last year's pass.
