First wave of DotA 2 invites are out

I hope you are a luckier person than I am. The first wave of DotA 2 beta invites went out sometime this evening, each player receiving two additional invites to share with friends. If you haven’t checked your email I would highly recommend you do so as soon as possible. If you made it into the first wave, congrats!

Of course it goes without saying that I would owe anyone willing to share an extra friend key my firstborn child. Being that I’ve been asked for the same favor roughly 40 times in the past day, I’d imagine most keys are spoken for. My Steam is “TheWuggler” just in case – feel free to add me for other games as well.

DotA 2 beta invites going out this week

When Valve originally announced that we would see a widespread rollout of DotA 2 beta invites this year, I never thought it would creep up on me like it has. Yes, it’s here. Valve announced yesterday that it would be releasing large volumes of DotA 2 beta invites this week. It gets better. Each invite will come with two additional invites so that players can enjoy the game with friends.

I’ve crossed just about every appendage on my body that can be crossed in hopes that I’ll receive an invite. I’m so excited to get back behind the controls of characters like Techies, Furion, Tiny, Pudge…every time I write one I think of others I enjoyed.

If you’re interested in the beta, hopefully you signed up some time during the International tournament. From there, all you need to do is complete the Steam survey, a link to which can be found at the DotA 2 blog.
