All-Star Match

In the All-Star match of 2014, two teams, Team XBOCT and Team rOtK, faced each other in a best of one, playing Random Draft. The teams' players were decided by Compendium owners, who were able to vote for 5 players for each team.

Just like in the previous year, there was no secrecy between the teams, mainly making fun picks to please the crowd. This is also the match in which Techies got revealed in Dota 2. The playing booths were completely open, so that both teams could hear each other, the casters and the crowd.
