January's most popular item, the Nested Treasure II, provides a throwback to 2015 by giving players an opportunity to open one treasure released by Valve during the past year. As a bonus, some treasures will also provide players with a special set redemption token that allows them to claim one set from any treasure on the Nested Treasure II's list. This edition's third most popular item, the Treasure of the Nested Cache, is the older version of the Nested Treasure II. It continues to remain popular over a year after its release.
Dota 2 players can't get enough of the treasures! Only one non-treasure item, the Artificer's Chisel, managed to grab a spot in this edition's top 10. There's been a resurgence in the popularity of the Artificer's Chisel during the past two months. Part of the item's increased popularity is a result of its price in the secondary market; the cheapest listing on the Steam Community Marketplace has hovered around $1.10 during the past month, which means it's actually cheaper to purchase from the official Dota 2 store!
The most popular non-treasure, non-tool item on our list is the 2015 MarsTV Dota 2 League tournament pass. The tournament wrapped up last week.
