How to Level up the Dota 2 TI10 Compendium?

The Dota 2 Compendium is here and it’s free. Players can earn points by completing the various challenges this year. Here are the different ways to level up your TI10 Compendium.

Valve released the Dota 2 compendium for TI10 yesterday. The TI10 Compendium introduces Compendium Point Rewards, Talent autographs and more. It's just enough to get the TI season hype going. 

The International 10 will take place in Bucharest, Romania starting on October 7. It features twenty-four of the best Dota 2 teams in the world competing for a massive $40 million prize pool. The Dota 2 community crowdfunds the TI prize pool every year through the TI Compendium. The TI10 prize pool stands at over $40 million after the community’s crowdfunding efforts last year. 

But we can’t have a TI without the hype, without a compendium and the excitement that comes with it. Valve has released the TI10 compendium and with it comes talent autographs, Compendium points rewards, bracket predictions and last but not the least, talent voice lines.

What is the Dota 2 TI10 Compendium?

Dota 2’s International is the highest prize pool event in esports. It has been so for quite some time. Valve introduced crowdfunding as a way for the Dota 2 community to contribute to the TI prize pool. And the prize pool kept growing every year. TI10 has a massive $40,018,195 prize pool, with $38,418,195 being contributed by the community.

Every year, Valve releases a Dota 2 battle Pass (previously known as the Compendium), which is a virtual book comprising cosmetics, seasonal features, effects, and mini-games and a lot more. Players can buy the base compendium or even buy more levels with real money. 25% of all Battle Pass sales go towards the TI prize pool.

Valve released the TI10 battle pass last year on May 26, 2020 and the community’s contributions boosted the TI10 prize pool to more than $40 million. The TI10 compendium is free for all users and contains talent voice lines, tournament predictions, player card rosters, fantasy lineups and supporter’s Clubs.

How to Get Levels in TI10 Compendium?

The TI10 compendium is free for all Dota 2 players. However, there are still ways the community can contribute to help talent and teams. By doing so, they also level up their compendium and get a chance to earn unique treasure items.

There are many ways to earn compendium points in the TI10 Compendium including drafting a fantasy team, tournament predictions and also via the Team Supporters Club.
