Item drop system

The Dota 2 Item drop system is a feature that allows players to obtain in-game cosmetic items through naturally playing the game and with no purchase necessary. This system was inspired by Valve's game Team Fortress 2's item drop system, but does not function entirely in the same way. After each match is finished you receive battle points. When you've received enough battle points for your account to gain a level you will receive a random item or a chest. There is also a small chance after each match for you to randomly receive an item or chest. Lastly, you may also randomly receive an item if another player has selected to use the tool Shopkeeper's Surprise(purchased from the Dota 2 store). Although many cosmetic items are available from the Dota 2 store, some can only be obtained through random drops.
