Skins in Dota 2

Dota 2 is an online multiplayer game that has become one of the founders of the MOBA genre. It was developed by Valve Corporation, and has been tested by tens of millions of gamers around the world since its release. As in the case of CS: GO, the presence of skins in Dota 2 brings a significant variety to the game.

As a free-to-play game, Dota 2 monetizes through in-game content, and skins are the most important type of such content. These are purely graphic items/things that do not increase the chances of players to win in the fights themselves. On the other hand, they are so visually diverse that they are of great interest among members of the gaming community.

In normal Dota 2 matches, at least one player from two teams can boast a character with a very beautiful skin. At the top levels, almost every self-respecting gamer has hero skins.

How to get skins in Dota 2

Dota 2 skins can be purchased on the Steam marketplace using in-game points or can be obtained from treasure chests.

By rarity, skins are divided into the following categories:

• regular - blue
• Fancy - blue
• Rare - dark blue
• Mythic - purple
• Legendary - pink (light purple)
• Immortals - golden
• Personal
• Arcana - green
• ancient - red

Arcana

By far, the most valuable are the Arcana and Ancient skins. It will no longer be possible to knock out the ancients on your own, although earlier they were awarded to those who completed some special in-game events. Arcana are very expensive and look amazing, have many special effects, sound and visual additions. The fact that they are expensive will play into the hands of those who are trying to earn real money on the game and are ready to sell skins on external services.

Personal

These are skins that completely change the personality of the hero. If it's a male, you can play as the female version of the character, and vice versa.
