Dota 2 7.31 patch release date - Techies Demolitions rework coming soon
Valve has announced that the Dota 2 7.31 patch is due out this week, and the highlight will apparently be a redo of everyone's least favourite trio of goblins - the Techies Demolitions pack. A lot of players will be happy to hear that the popular MOBA game is getting a Techies rework at last, but Valve still hasn't revealed what form it will take.
Arguably the best MOBA game on PC, the arrival of the Techies goblins into Dota 2 was both long-awaited and celebrated when it happened all the way back in 2014 - in fact, the Techies were met with massive cheers and literal explosions when they were first revealed.
Since then, the Techies have fallen into either the love-them-or-hate-them camp, with even Valve's own tweet about the new update referring to the group as "contentious". They're almost entirely trap-based, and they can make matches go on for a long time as opponents are forced to avoid or disable them. As of this week, however, they're getting a rework.
