This market will resolve to the new hero Valve announces at The International 2026 (TI 15), scheduled for August 13, 2026 to August 23, 2026, in Shanghai, China. If Valve announces more than one new hero, this market will resolve to "Other". If The International 2026 is canceled or postponed beyond September 6, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be official information from Valve Corporation via official Dota 2 channels; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.**Trader consensus reflects deep uncertainty over Valve's plans for The International 2026 in Shanghai.** With the event just days away, "no hero" holds the narrowest edge at 54.5% implied probability, while multiple named options and "other" cluster near 50%, and Arjun sits at 23%. This bunched pricing stems from Valve's inconsistent TI reveal history—past events delivered surprise hero announcements or content drops, yet recent official updates focused solely on invites, qualifiers, supporter bundles, and fantasy features without confirming any new champion. Leaks placing Arjun on test servers since late 2025 fuel speculation around an archery-themed release, but the absence of official patch notes or event teases keeps the field wide open. The wisdom of crowds prices in both the precedent for late reveals and the real possibility of another content-light TI, maintaining tight competitive dynamics across outcomes.
