Aghanims Labyrinth, the new TI10 Summer Event has been winning plaudits for its amazing game play. Many have played the game to death and some have even managed to beat the game in the hardest difficulty. However, a sense of boredom is beginning to set in considering the limited hero pool.
Players can only play 12 heroes in this game mode which is heavily limiting the number of strategies you can use in this game mode.
It looks like Valve is trying to fix this problem before the boredom sets in, too much.
A reddit user /u/Flam3ss has discovered some files in a Steam Database entry that might indicate that several new heroes might be added to the Aghanim’s Labyrinth. This list titled “ herolist.txt” was found in the ‘Aghanim’ folder in the Steam Database and includes a mammoth 30+ heroes which have been marked with various tags.
Heroes that are tagged to have custom/modified abilities (like Magnus, Witch Doctor in the Aghanim's Labyrinth mode):
Luna
Monkey King
Phantom Assassin
Some Heroes were also tagged as "Top candidates". Perhaps these heroes are the most likely to be introduced in the Aghanim's Labyrinth game mode.
The addition of these heroes will certainly make things far more interesting.
Some Heroes were tagged as "Tanky"
Some were tagged as "Fighter"
Heroes tagged as "Archer"
Others tagged as "Wizard"
Heroes tagged as "Rogue"
Unfortunately, this does not confirm that Valve intends to add all these heroes to the game. It is very likely that Valve experimented with these heroes prior to introducing this game mode but later made a call to not add them to the game.
Aghanim’s Labyrinth is a PVE co-op mode where players can team up with three friends and battle monsters in 4 different difficulties to get the opportunity to unlock prizes including:
TI10 Battle Pass owners will also be able to unlock 2000 to 4000 Battle Points each week, through the Aghanim’s Labyrinth.
On the day of release, NA pro players AUI_2000 and MSS along with a couple of their friends managed to beat the Aghanim’s Labyrinth in the Hardest (Grand Magus) Difficulty. The heroes, build and talents that AUI_2000 and co. used to beat the game, has already been detailed.
