With the arrival of the new map version, 6.68, being eagerly anticipated, IceFrog has dropped a little update on the community.
ESWC is fast approaching, kicking off at the end of June. The current rules state that the map version used will be the most stable version released 15 days prior to the tournament.

INTRODUCTION
Since Icefrog remade Magnus a bit in 6.67 and I played him around 10 times in this short time so far, (and I’m bored) I want to give you a guide to the cool new Magnus. This time it won’t be a step-by-step because it doesn’t help explaining Magnus’ play style. It was just perfect for explaining Bloodseeker’s and Nightstalker’s one because you can clearly say what they should do at a certain point of the game. But I will try to keep up your motivation with pictures and videos in this guide.

Teamfight: He is made for teamrapes.

After nearly three months since the release of DotA version 6.66, IceFrog has released version 6.67 with a lot of interesting rework as well as a new mode, capture the flag.
Capture the flag mode is a fun mode which requires teamwork and coordination. There will be six fixed points in the map. These points, when captured, give bonuses to a team’s heroes. There are three kinds of bonuses; combat, regen and speed. There will be two points in the map associated with each individual bonus which will be placed on opposite sides of the map.
