The International 2016 Battle Pass

The International 2016 Battle Pass is a tournament pass and features bundle made for The International 2016. It is similar to past compendiums and contains numerous quests, achievements, and earnable rewards for its owner. Unlike past compendiums, stretch goals have been removed for this Battle Pass, and instead rewarded immediately upon purchase. 25% of the proceeds obtained from this Battle Pass will go towards the tournament prize pool.
