Does anyone else's DBR not change despite wins? Is it just not re-implemented yet or something?

You can't calculate DBR anymore b/c people have private ids. In order for dbr to work u gotta have access to everyone's accounts

They could calculate a very rough DBR by only keeping stats for people who's profile is public. Of course those peoples skill level would skew higher than average, but it still would give people who were interested in keeping track of their progress a way to do so.
If you are about to lose a game you can just turn your privacy on and it won't count that game on dotabuff. Making dbr pretty pointless even if they could gather it.
It would be a complete mess and not worth doing at all.

Tusk seems essentially done, so... not really sure why they'd hold him another week.
Bristlebog could pull a Treant and come out of nowehere, but that's unlikely.
Or we could get a couple of retextures, some bug fixes and an Sven Sword.

Or Skyworth could just show up done. He looks fairly complete to be honest.
I really do wish Valve would add in like 50 odd ball cosmetics, rather then all these sets. I liked the one off items.
Your counting skills sucks, there is 13. Tusk, Bristle, Tauren, Legion Commander, Phoenix, Pit Lord, Abaddon, Ember, Terror Blade, Arc Warden, Skywrath, Techies, and Winter Wyvern.
Also, I think LoL has more Heroes then Dota now. I think they are upto 111 now, while Dota is at 110.

I played my first Enigma game today, team was all carry but me. Managed to get dagger even when everybody was feeding, and then did a pgg black hole. After that i got a nice 3 or 4 man one and naga ulted.

At 13 heroes if they want them all in by TI3, they're going to have to pick up the pace a bit. 26 weeks will put them dangerously close to TI3.
Ultimately that's when I see Dota 2 being officially released, at TI3 with a huge event, lots of items, huge marketing, etc. Maybe even manage to get some of TI3 aired on Spike or ESPN or whatever.

I knew it was a close call when it happened last night. But until I rewatched it I didnt realize just how close.

They always feature her.
LOL Sven Ikea set.
Love that Slark laternfish hood - perfect match
I don't like it, it's ugly. He has enough "fish" going on already, don't need to shove his theme down my throat.

anuxi's set and that Sven set will be mine. Tide ward is also excellent.
I still see it.
Also I got a refund for the bonus info but I still have the dota plus stuff tied to my account.

I'm actually liking Spectre. So I welcome the ult fixes.
The initial load is fairly long, but fairly tolerable afterwards.

Hope there is some bristlebog stuff. They are going to have to speed up hero release especially since wc3 will probably get a handful of new heroes this year. The game has to come out sometime.
Dusa, Slark, and Troll are all safe bets. All of them are weak in their own ways and unlikely to upset the current competitive meta. Drow and Centaur are still kind of wild cards although the centaur QQ has died down in the last few months.

Looks like Abaddon is going to come soonish. Likely early March is my bet.
Also, teams are going to get a rank soon.
Anuxi's Enchatress set is coming, along with some Antimage, Chen, and Windrunner items. Lich and Warlock wards too. Chicken courier should be able to be purchased now.
I can't seem to extract that materials from this update at all, so Mats stuff will likely also be delayed.
