Patch 7.33 adds a fourth attribute in Dota 2 called the Universal attribute.

In Patch 7.33, Valve did the unthinkable and added a fourth attribute in Dota 2. This attribute is called “Universal” and a lot of heroes are re-categorized to now bear this attribute.

“As the fourth spirit brother we’d released, Void Spirit shouldn’t have been a Strength, Agility, or Intelligence hero. To stand apart, he really should have been a new kind of hero. A fourth kind of hero,” the update introduced.

What is the Universal attribute?

Universal is a new type of attribute in Dota 2 that was introduced in Patch 7.33. This attribute gives heroes 0.7 damage (Patch 7.33c) from each stat of any attribute. Universal heroes do not have a Primary Attribute and instead get benefits from all attributes. Valve has re-categorized existing heroes and 31 heroes now fall under the new category.

This is one of the biggest addition in the gigantic Patch 7.33. Valve trusts that the new attribute in its current state is balanced. But we’ll see how the Frontier’s Update unfolds. You can read the fullpatch noteshere.
