Summer cedes soon to autumn, sending signals to the smeevils that the time for another seasonal Dota Plus update has now arrived. The autumn-ready additions that await include several features from the Nemestice Battle Pass transitioning into Dota Plus's core, as well as a new seasonal treasure and refreshed guild quests & rewards.

As part of the Nemestice Battle Pass, we improved the Dota Plus Item Assistant with Neutral Item Suggestions and enhanced Quick Buy Recommendations. Though the Nemestice storms have passed, both of these features have now been transferred to Dota Plus core and are available to all Plus members.

For Plus members interested in expanding their in-lane audio libraries, the Chat Wheel sound effects from the Nemestice Battle Pass are now available for purchase via shards in the Dota Plus Shard Store.

The Fall 2021 Seasonal Treasure is here, available for purchase with shards. Exclusive to Dota Plus members, this treasure features all new sets for Vengeful Spirit, Abaddon, Nature's Prophet, Witch Doctor, Disruptor, Shadow Demon, Tusk, Legion Commander, and Dark Seer. There's also a chance to unlock Ol' Joe the koala courier, a chill little guy preloaded with random prismatic and kinetic gems.

[h2]Updated Seasonal Quests & Guild Rewards[/h2]
Today’s update also comes with a new set of Dota Plus quests to help harvest some extra shards for new relics and the Seasonal Treasure — offering up to 115,200 shards over the course of the season.

Rounding out today's update in addition to the changes above, the guild rewards for silver, gold, and platinum tier guilds have all been switched for the fall season. We were saddened to hear recently of the passing of Aldrin Paulo "Dunoo" Pangan, an icon of the Filipino casting community. As a tribute, for the next season, the selected chat wheels feature some of his most iconic lines.
