The Tournament Odachi Tag:

Tournament Fireborn Odachi
Match ID: 131923210
G-1 League Season 1
"AbsoluteLegends- aka
FlipSid3.IsMyGolf defeated PowerRangers with a score of 29 to 15 on Feb 21, 2013 (11:50:08).

Recently with the start of International 2013 event, prices of tournament drops across various trading websites has significantly dropped. If you look through for instance dota2lounge you can see that wards that used to go for 7 keys now easily sell for 2 and rares costing 6-10 keys now can be obtained for 4. Unlike others, playdota.com prices have remained relatively stable and I highly recommend for all the sellers to direct their efforts there. There can be many reasons that caused this change including new desirable immortals or new international 2013 drops. People are out of keys and those who have them, are buying brand new items. Will the prices jump back up after international 2013? Time shall show.

As of yesterday's update the way how tournament drops descriptions look, has changed. The tag now features images of the two teams from the game, the logo of the game and there is a seperate title for what kind of an event triggered the drop (double kill/triple kill etc). The old description still appears below all of this information.

MOST IMPORTANT: The basic desription of the item has been aded, which won't allow people to change the tag of the tournament drop. You should be able to change the description into whatever you like but the teams and the tag (shown in the 3rd image below) will stay the same.

+ Items are tradabelable on the market again!

Recently many people have been adding me and asking, how come some tournament drops are marketable while others aren't. Why can you see tournament items on steam market while those in your inventory and of your friends' are set as unmarketable? Today on Reddit a new thread has appeared on the topic of tournament drops in which some light has been shed on this topic:

"Tournament items were marketable, but because there were too many illegitimate ones being put on sale, Valve removed the option to sell on the market. The old ones are still on the marketplace but new ones cannot be added." - CloneShen

There has been NO official Valve statement in steam client updates. This is all what we can rely on for now.

Shout out to qdt for forwarding the information! Thx buddy!

After having one's account hijacked, steam support DOES restore tournament drops, without reversing the trade - only restoring your inventory. This causes duplicates of the precious unique tournament items on the market. Because of phishing sites being a plague currently, expect many duplicates (same description, same item, same game ID) to be seen.
