Within the hectic and intense battles, we tend to neglect by far the most integral part of the game, couriers! We usually overlook them as dumb or insignificant creatures but in reality, they are more than that! Couriers put themselves in trouble to fetch your precious items! They do not as for anything in return, nor do they steal your exploits! 

We have compiled this list so you can treat your couriers right and get the best skins available for them! Since every player has a courier, you better be showing off your shiny and trusty little companion!

10. Coral the Furryfish

If you’re into the flora and fauna of the deep seas like we are, you would love Coral the Furryfish. Her simplistic yet detailed and adorable model is well received and admired. Along with the model, her animations are quite cute as you see her flopping around, trying her best to deliver you your items! After level 6, you see her fly majestically as she reaches you!

If you have played the game enough, you must have seen the normal courier which resembles a donkey. Well, Strongback the Swift is the cooler and more blinged-out version of the OG courier. Not only does he have extremely shiny particle effects, but the courier also has Omniknight and Crystal Maiden riding it! Talk about paying attention to detail! This courier is not everyone’s cup of tea but it manages to catch some looks as you may get complimented for it in-game!

8. Nilbog the Mad

We have an imposter here! This suspicious-looking dragon is actually a goblin in disguise! If you haven’t already figured it out, Nilbog is actually Goblin spelled backward! The model of the courier is inspired by the menacing Techies and they both were released together on the same day! There is some level of madness that has driven the creation of such a derpy yet hilarious courier. We don’t think this courier will scare your enemies away but it will surely do your job and deliver your precious items!

No, this is not an April fool’s joke, Faceless Rex is quite literally Faceless Void reimagined as a T-rex! Not only is this a badass courier, but it is a fresh breath from the lore strict couriers. Its release marked the remodel of Faceless Void as well. With the emergence of the metaverse, it's safe to say that there is a T-rex-shaped Faceless Void in some universe out there! It may sound terrifying until you see this cutesy little thing tumbling around and delivering items in-game!

Don’t let his looks deceive you guys, he knows exactly what he is doing! This interdimensional Baby Roshan is as terrifying as the adult-sized one! He manages to bend time and deliver your items on time! This version of the blinged-out Roshan was awarded to the top-scoring players in Aghanim’s Labyrinth event. This means that unfortunately, this adorable yet crazed baby demon is not available on the Steam Market. We can only sit and admire its beauty from afar!

5. Amaterasu

It's not every day that other companies decide to collaborate with Valve to promote their games! Amaterasu is a limited edition courier which was only available with the early purchase of Konami’s OKAMI HD. We are still sulking over the fact that this courier is not marketable or tradable, meaning not everyone has access to it! We can only admire its glorious wings and particles as it flies freely, without any troubles.

4. Butch

Does this seemingly normal doggo courier remind you of someone? Yes! Butch was one of the first couriers which were based on a hero, in this case, it’s Pudge! Just like him, our little guy is quite deadly with his stitches, intimidating looks, and terrifying demeanor! Butch is different from other couriers on this list as he does not have any particle effects, but does he really need them to be cute? It’s a hilarious sight to witness when Butch hits level 6 and gets wings to fly!

His dark purple particle effects are quite appealing to the eye, and it only gets better when he flops his little wings around! He does look like he is about to throw your items away!

What is Lorem Ipsum?It's time for them to learn their place. Reina storms the King of Iron Fist Tournament in #TEKKEN8  Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.     Why do we use it?It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).Where does it come from?Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.Where can I get some?There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised
