Financially other tournaments don't matter compared to TI, but how is that a problem? From the viewers point of view, only two things matter in a tournament, hype and game quality (including production value). Production value and hype could be bigger if these tournaments were bigger, but I'm not convinced there would be too big of a change. Hype depends much more on getting the rights teams to play and there not being too many tournaments in the same time frame. Game quality might be better if tournaments were bigger as well, but are teams really goofing off just because TI is far away? Big teams need to guarantee themselves in TI, and small teams need to fight themselves into it. Also, why is one team kicking players out and another being formed to compete in a tournament considered "deplorable" behaviour? | ||

World Cup wouldn't be that coveted if it happened once a year, and neither would a quarterly mini International. | ||

World Cup wouldn't be that coveted if it happened once a year, and neither would a quarterly mini International. One huge tournament is probably fine but the top-heavy prize pool is not. 1. In the qualifying bracket for top8, one game is the difference between 9th place with $50k versus guaranteed at least 7th with $500k. That's a bigger difference than any elimination game before Loser's Finals. And aside from how unfair that feels intuitively, there's also no hype for that match because it's played off of the main stage. 2. Would providing a slightly flatter distribution of the prize pool really make "things not matter"? Is anyone really going to say "Oh 1st place is 4.5 million instead of 5 million I'm not going to try too hard anymore"? 3. The World Cup isn't the primary compensation for players. Their lives are not revolved around winning the World Cup and the high variability of it doesn't make/break their career. | ||

P.S. There is nothing deplorable about player changes; like forreals, what's deplorable about Newbee??? And there's certainly nothing to indicate that such happenings are born wholly out of DotA's competitive circuit structure. (see: League's off-season. Shady people gonna be shady) | ||

Meaning, have different tiers of leagues which have teams play each other twice, over a span of 7-8 months. The team with most points in the end of the season becomes the league champions! High seeded teams get promoted to higher leagues, bottom seeded teams relegate. League games happen once a week. Then have a cup like in football in which all team's can participate, from all leagues. This is a single elimination format. Then have a Nations/Regions big tournament lets say every second summer. Like Mym Prime Nations many years ago. dream is real | ||
