Dota 2 Adds Voice of the Magus Cypher For Rubick Arcana

Kill Ping writes: "A few months back, Valve finally released a brand new Arcana, one which the community had been waiting for since the end of The International 2018 – the one for Rubick. The Arcana received some pretty positive reviews as it not only features an impeccable design but also features a ton of different spell designs which made this Arcana one of the best ones available in the game. Well, today, things got even better as the developers have released a brand new voice for the Rubick Arcana."

Probably to get new players hooked on the addictive gameplay loop, more people playing = statistically more people buying battle passes.

Why would seasoned players want to play with lower skill players anyway? Just to owned them? They’re n00bs, what’s the fun in that?

It’s like on COD where they do bad on purpose for a few rounds, to then be place with with bad players to then dominate.

This is human nature. I know people who do this in Dota2, CoD and other multiplayer games. They enjoy the dopamine rush that winning generates.
