Furthermore, fans will also be getting another surprise in the form of a new hero, the identity of which is currently unknown.
However, it seems like players have already started speculating on what the new hero will be, and the answer might just be none other than ‘Sorla Khan’, the leader of the Red Mist army who replaced Axe.
The speculation comes from a number of reasons, the primary reason being the fact that the update has been termed as ‘Mistwood’ by the Dota 2 devs. ‘Mistwood’ might be hinting towards the Red Mist Army, which is led by Sorla Khan.
