The New Dota Battle Pass is here and with it new loot, features and game modes, let's break down what's in store:

Game modes:

The Underhollow is announced and descripted as a multi-team mode, in which each team battles against time to be the last one standing before the cave in which the game mode will take place, crumbles, leaving everyone nowhere to run.

Cavern Crawl lets you explore the caves beneath the Riverlands by playing matches with designated Heroes to unlock deeper parts of the battle cavern. Exclusive loot and battle points are rewarded.

Mutation is another new game mode in which every day, certain modifiers are applied to matches to see how well you navigate through them, however Mutation is unranked.

In-Game Tipping:

Starting on 25 Battle Points and progressing with you, tipping allies and enemies will be allowed 3 times per match and ten times per week. Show your support or your admiration in a great way.

Role-based Matchmaking and Pro Circuit prediction rewards.:

Owners of the Battle Pass will be able to queue choosing a place from the get go and then finding a party that fits what you need to fill up the team.

Also, a new browser-based betting system will allow you to earn points for correctly predicting the outcomes of the Pro Circuit, rewarding players with high competitive insight.

Many other features:

The new Battle Pass has too many features to count and they're all just as interesting, so if you want to check out the whole details you can read them on DOTA 2's International Battle Pass Page.

Blizzard has teamed up with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and has made Available the **Pink Mercy Skin ** to support the cause, as well as apparel and rewards for playing and spreading the message!

According to Blizzard, all of the proceeds from everything related to the campaign will go towards the research of the cure for Breast Cancer, guaranteeing a minimum donation of 250.000 USD. Artists Vickisigh (whom I absolutely adore) and Omegawatt created the designs for the apparel and icons and sprays for twitch.

Make sure you unlock Pink Mercy if you play Overwatch to help this great cause, and also support the artists behind it and the team at Blizzard for making this idea a reality~

Go check out the Kickstarter campaign for a developing tabletop game called "Star Crossed" and tell me what you think! The campaign is close to ending but they have surpassed greatly their goal already.

Star Crossed is about two players making their own forbidden love story, as they navigate through hardships, heartbreak and unexpected twists and turns. With a Jenga-based system that makes everything much more exciting and tense, the game ends when the tower falls and players must make their final scene to end their love story regardless of the point in which they were.

Characters are up to the players and so are stories, it's a very cool game concept that I can't wait to try!

And that is the end for today!
