とっても不吉な Diretide イベントでは毎年、Roshanにかけられた魔法が一時的に効力をなくします。恐ろしい洞窟から開放され、彼は抑えることの出来ない欲求を満たすことの出来る唯一の食べ物を探してうろつきます！その食べ物とは、、、 Greevil トフィーです！
終わりのない夜に Roshan はうろつき、ヒーロー達は甘い喜びで自分の宝箱を満たします。敵チームと競って、より多くのトフィーを集めましょう...Roshan がその甘いにおいに気がつくそのときまで！そして、うろこに覆われ、翼を持つ、紛れも無いいじめっ子のご近所さん、Roshan がヒーローと彼らの集めたトフィーの間に立ちはだかります。
お腹が満たされると、Roshan はSugar Rush（シュガーラッシュ：糖分による興奮状態、多幸状態）に陥ります--こうなると、彼の周りは大迷惑。Radient と Dire で力、スピード、そして知恵を合わせてRoshan を退治してください。
野獣を打ち負かした後の褒美ほど甘いものはありません。 いつもなら、チーズと不滅の命を提供する彼ですが、Diretide シーズンだけ、Roshan は希少なエッセンスや、なんと (おかしなことに) 卵まで落とします！*
エッセンスと言えば、時間が正にそのものです！時計はどんどん時間を刻んでいきます！夜明けの鶏と夕暮れの狼の声は嗄れていきます！
Each fight against Roshan is watched and recorded by the imperious, judging eye of a battlefield dronebird, which instantly wings off to report to the great scorekeeper in the sky. It's good to know that even in Diretide, somebody cares.
When it comes to making Greevil Taffy, the Confectioners of Yhauron have guarded their secret process closely, and no wonder. It is a truly horrible process!
In fact, should Greevils ever discover what has been done in their name, no Yhauronish candymaker could ever know a moment's peace. But we can spill the secrets here, because Greevils never read (and Yhauron is not pronounced anything like the way it is spelled).
It's all very simple really. Take a Greevil. Stretch and fold it ten thousand times on a colorful greevil-taffy-torture-rack, and abracadabra: Colorful, savory, tough and extremely gristly taffy!
Is it any wonder that only Roshan can stomach the stuff?
If you are a gentle soul who finds the Diretide season too terrifying, you can exorcise the spirits of Direness by shopping. At the Dota Store you will find seasonal enhancements for Invoker, Death Prophet, Windrunner and Antimage, along with keys for opening the especially Dire crates that drop during Diretide battles. These are all part of the lamentable Dire celebration, so they are possibly a bit frightening. But there is nothing the least bit ominous about an adorable baby Roshan.
The culmination of the Diretide festival, ironically enough, is an occasion of joy.
Joy, that is, if you find hope in the arrival of swarms of chaos-loving Greevils, for this is when they Hatch!
Throughout the Diretide celebrations, you must treat your egg well. Feed it the essences dropped by Roshan...or don't! It's really up to you. It is said (by some elder sage or other) that the hatchlings are highly susceptible, and that each essence exerts a unique influence on the incubating creature. Is there method to this madness? Trial and error, and some comparison of results, will surely reveal the rules of Greevil husbandry.
Roshan を追い掛け回し、倒したヒーロー全員に、１つの卵が付与されます。更なる実験をお望みならば、Dota ストアからもGreevil をお買い求めいただけます。Greevil Taffy を記念して、1ダース、いえ、12 ダースの卵を買ってみませんか？
