Former Dota 2 professional Ivan "Vanskor" Skorokhod has revisited the longtime-discussed 2013 incident involving his then-team RoX.KIS, in which a match known as a '322' was fixed. In a post on his personal Telegram channel he confirmed that the idea of deliberately losing the game was discussed inside the organization, but that he immediately refused to take part.

Streamer Alexander "Nix" Levin spoke about his attitude toward Dota 2 and League of Legends, focusing on their visual styles and the way matches feel. His comments were shared on the LEGENDWP DOTA 2 Telegram channel.

A new comedy-adventure is set to premiere soon: It Seems the Strongest Profession Isn't Hero or Sage but (Temporary) Inspector (Saikyou no Shokugyou wa Yuusha demo Kenja demo Naku Kanteishi [Kari] Rashii desu yo?). The series follows a transported young man who acquires a mysterious power and takes up the life of an adventurer. Makoto Hoshino, who previously worked on the series "The City Where I'm Not," is directing the adaptation.
