About

Since I Last Played is a guide for people coming back to a game after a break. Pick the game and the month you last played, and it shows what changed since: the biggest patches first, then the heroes, items, weapons and maps you care about, with the changes that still matter condensed and everything else one click away.

It covers Dota 2 and Counter-Strike 2 today. League of Legends and Valorant are coming next.

Where the information comes from

• Patch and update notes from the publishers. Dota 2 and Counter-Strike 2 changes come from Valve’s official patch and release notes. Every game page lists its exact sources at the bottom.
• What players buy on each Dota 2 hero comes from OpenDota’s item purchase data for recent professional matches.
• Summaries are written by us. The short lists of biggest changes, rework notes and similar text are our own wording, checked against the notes. Where the notes are incomplete or a judgement call is involved, the page says so.
• Images of heroes, items, weapons and maps belong to the game publishers and are used to identify what each page is about.

How it stays up to date

The site is rebuilt from the latest notes after new patches. Each page shows the most recent patch it covers. If you spot something missing or wrong, please tell us at contact@sinceilastplayed.com.
