During The International 2017, Valve came out with an announcement about an upcoming Baby Roshan statue. The statue was to be rewarded to all Dota 2 players who have reached level 2000 in the Dota 2 Battle Pass 2017. However, now that the statues are being rolled out, the community is ranting about the poor quality of the product.

After almost a whole year, the Dota 2 Baby Roshan Statue was finally received by one of the players who reached level 2000 during the 2017 Battle Pass. We can imagine the level of excitement. However, after looking at the end product, we feel for everyone who paid close to US$800 for reaching Level 2000. If you think we are overreacting, just look at the Baby Roshan Statue below and tell us if we are wrong.

However, before you go on hating Valve for the quality of the Baby Roshan Statue, let us be the ones to tell you that the developers are with you on this. Just check out their most recent announcement below:

“It has come to our attention that the physical Baby Roshan reward for last year’s Battle Pass has had poor production quality yields. We apologize to our fans for that, it is well below the quality we expected.” – Official Announcement

Furthermore, to fix this, Valve will be coming out with a newer, more improved version of the 2017 Battle Pass Baby Roshan Statue with no added price. Everyone who has either already gotten the cheaply-made Baby Roshan or is going to get it, will also receive the brand new one.

“We are going to start from scratch on new production for the statue, and prioritize delivering it as soon as possible to every customer that reached level 2000 last year.” – Official Announcement

Hopefully, this time the Level 2000 Battle Pass owners would not have to wait a whole year for the new versions of the Baby Roshan. And those of you who are looking to get their hands on this year’s Baby Roshan statue, we advise you to tread lightly.
