A stranger silhouette and fragments of a scepter – what happens to Aghanim’s Scepter in Dota 2?

On the evening of July 13, Valve updated the Aghanim’s Scepter icon. After that, players began to find various Easter eggs in Dota 2 and try to guess what they were leading to.

First of all, users suggested that Aghanim’s Scepter was somehow connected with the upcoming summer event in Dota 2, since a couple of hours before the item icon was changed, the developers updated the teaser of the event.

Later, insider Vikram Reddy tweeted: “I just want to tell you: today is a good day to buy a scepter.” He then posted a short video in which Aghanim’s Scepter breaks into fragments. The corresponding icon appeared on the subject in the game. In addition, after purchasing an artifact, users began to hear a replica of an unknown character.

Players noticed that after buying Aghanim’s Scepter, the heroes in Dota 2 began to leave a trail of blue shards.

If you purchase several Aghanim’s Scepter in the store, then with each purchase the artifact effect under the character will become brighter.
