Despite speculation of its cancellation, the 2021 Battle Pass is here! Although not in the way that people might have expected. Valve teased the Nemestice event earlier in the week in their update post about TI10 and Sweden.

The event has finally been released and along with it a surprise inclusion of a Battle Pass. The Nemestice Battle Pass features the long-awaited Spectre Arcana, the new Nemestice game mode, a Dragon Knight persona themed from the Dota: Dragon’s Blood anime, an upgrade to the Kid Invoker persona from the 2019 Battle Pass.

It also features two new treasures - The Nemestice 2021 Immortal Treasure and the Nemestice 2021 Themed Treasure. And of course, all of the previous features of the prior TI10 Battle Pass are here such as the Cavern Crawl event, seasonal effects for in-game animations, stickers, taunts, etc.
