Fixes in the Steam client released on Thursday, Dec 10:
Fixed a problem that could cause frame rate hitches, especially for players subscribed to a large number of hero guides
Added a mechanism to Steam for Dota to tell it when you are in a match, so Steam should not patch the game. Steam never downloads updates to the game, or custom game items that have already been completely installed, once you launch Dota. This change ensures that Steam will also not update Dota if you exit the game or crash and try to relaunch Dota.
Added an option for specifying whether you always want to hear the default respawn music, even when using a music pack
Private lobbies can now set how pause is available in game: Unlimited where any player can pause, Limited where players have limited amount of pauses, and Disabled for no pauses allowed
Added a new targeting UI for unit-AOE abilities
Chatting "lmao" now causes your hero to laugh
Fountain Healing now shows a buff icon during its duration
Fixed a bug where picking "None" for a stat didn't stick on Profile Cards
Added a "Clear" button that lets you clear a slot on your Profile Card
Added an item details page to show features of items available for purchase including item description, brand and associated league information, items that are contained within bundles, demo mode, and ability icons and other modifiers associated with the items
Improved the appearance of Prismatic Gems in the armory
Spectator Gems now show the logo of the team they are associated with in the armory
In the Customize screen, It is now possible to select all items in the same set as a particular item by right-clicking on the item icon and choosing 'Select Set Items'
Fixed particles not appearing in the Hero Loadout and in-game Hero Picker screens for some of Terrorblade's Demon Form items
Fixed a bug where the arcana of Legion Commander, Shadow Fiend, and Techies looked incorrect in the in-game hero picker screen
