10 new teams added to Dota 2 Supporter's Club
Dota 2 fans can now support ten more Dota Pro Circuit squads via the new Supporter’s Club System.
The added teams include such fan favorites as Thunder Predator, PSG.LGD, and Vikin.gg. This is the third round of additions, bringing the total number of available banners to 36.
The new collection features teams from China, South America, Western Europe, and Southeast Asia. The majority of new additions are competing in their region’s upper division, but Crewmates is a notable addition from the lower division. They’re one of just a few division-two teams to create Supporter packs, joining the likes of Arkosh Gaming and Vikin.gg.
Each Supporter’s Club offers three levels of engagement including bronze, silver, and gold. The $2 bronze package only includes an in-game name tag accessory. The $10 silver adds custom icons and sprays. The $20 gold tier includes all of the above plus an HP bar badge, loading screens, and in-game voice lines.
The new PSG.LGD Gold Tier loading screens put superstar carry Wang “Ame” Chunyu front-and-center.
EHOME offlaner and TI podium regular Yang “Chalice”‘ Shenyi appears on a silver tier spray giving two thumbs-up while backed by EHOME’s chibi pig mascot.
SG Esports opted to showcase all-star midlaner Adriano de Paula “4dr” Machado with a heavenly spray. “ADeusR” is a common nickname from casters and fans alike.
50% of the proceeds from Dota Supporter’s Club goes directly to the team while the other half goes to Valve. These rewards are temporary, and will expire once The International 10 officially ends the 2021 Dota Pro Circuit. Supporter’s Club is meant to be a permanent feature. Rewards will expire at the end of each season in 2022.
