Me myself personally was very sceptical about the event at first but it grew on me extremely quickly. The token system is a significant upgrade to what we had in caverns, the rewards even tho they are nothing to write home about, they are free and there is quite a lot of them, the discounts are super cool, makes the whole pay to play aspect of the event very beneficial for valve itself by encouraging people to buy bonus stuff for imo relatively cheap but also we get quite a lot of stuff for relatively cheap, i am suspecting that in each chapter bundle there will be new skin for the map itself (like tower skins, ancient/roshan, map itself). Also the arcanas even tho not the greatest again with the discount are definitely considerable purchase and the fact that they have a whole lore vent centered around them, for people like me that adds a lot of emotional value to the skin. My only MAJOR complain about the event is that for such a long wait, valve didnt really did the entry of the event very exciting, nothing that people were actually waiting was added, no major patch, or even a minor one, no new hero, no map changes, because of that the gameplay itself didnt really change at all which for me and i guess many others really tuned down the initial hype. But i will let volvo cook and hope they know what they are doing, so far i am liking the event, i just hope during it a new hero will actually come out or at least something that will affect the gameplay and meta itself..
I actually got the Zeus arcana on my 9th reroll! Was able to afford it too. As for the arcana designs, I think Sky's is great, but I think Venge's arcana could use some work. In her idle pose, her bracer clips through her hand and the VFX look kinda bland, especially the Swap.
Okay, you've convinced me. I'm gonna check this out ASAP. You had me dead at "I don't even play Skywrath" lol
Epic style :)
Early 2024 in Valve Calendar is Fall 2024
I absolutely love the new event

Let us hope that Volvo cooks something good. . . Also I like your pfp :)
The arcanas are meh to be honest. Looking forward to getting some legacy ones in the candyworks caravan (zeus or SF if possible)!
