On the night of November 6, Valve developers officially completed the dota 2 event called “Curiosities of the Quartero“, which was marked in the game’s client via the Steam platform. However, the Quartero curiosities event left players with a nice bonus: according to the data miners, all earned rewards remain available until November 14th. This approach allows you not to lose game items, even for those users who did not have time to log in to the game immediately after the end of the event.

What did the players get for participating in the summer event
The temporary event, which started back in August of this year, offered generous conditions for all participants of the matches. For regular participation in the gameplay, you could get free rewards for completing: an exclusive set of items, unique visual effects, and achievements that emphasize the veteran status of the curiosity mode. The motivation system was built in such a way that even casual online players who log into Dota 2 several times a week could collect a full collection of content.
The game content included not only cosmetic improvements for the characters of the heroes, but also practical bonuses that affect the gameplay: special couriers, announcers and emotions for in-game communication. All extracted items are stored in the inventory forever and have no restrictions on use after the end of the active phase of the event.
Additional expiration date: why Valve is giving a delay
It is no coincidence that the deadline for redeeming awards has been extended until November 14 — this is the traditional practice of valve developers, which the company applies after each major dota 2 update. This approach demonstrates attention to the player community and the understanding that many users may have objective reasons for not being online: business trips, a training session, or technical problems accessing the game client.
The November patch also included several technical fixes related to the reward interface. The release of the update was generally positively received: user feedback on the thematic forums shows that most are satisfied with both the quality of the Quartero curiosity event itself and the organization of the transition period for the purchase of content.
Context and community plans after the event
It should be added that the end of the event coincided with the active phase of preparation of professional teams for the nearest future tournaments. Earlier, legendary player and streamer Roman RAMZES666 Kushnarev shared his plans for creating entertainment content. The esports player noted that he wants to repeat the popular challenge of other content makers with interest in the game even after the end of summer activities on August 6.
