I think at this point the majority of the dota community doesn't really care whether or not dota ever appears at MLG. I'm sure it would be nice for exposure and all that, but we already have too many tournaments to keep up with. We'll survive.

My guess is that it will be like D2L, and BTS will do the online portion.

Dota could use 3-4 more stand-alone Lan events like dreamhack. But I doubt that's what MLG would be doing. It doesn't make sense in Dota especially with the ticket system and the fact that people do actually watch online tournaments, you're better off going for long-form league formats.

having LAN's in the land of the free and the brave would still be quite huge, its just that at this point MLG has been twittering random stuff for about 1 year now?maybe more?

I don't believe anything of it until I see it.

Bumping this for great glory.

Actually I was going to mention earlier that I really love how every event draws to a close shortly before the International, really giving the teams time to prepare in-game and in life, good guy valve/dota community strikes again.

I think MLG would really benefit from doing something similar to what Nexon did, only tied-in to their open LAN events

I'd question it's as smart of a business decision as Dota fans tend to think anyway.

For the MLG audience, COD is much bigger than Dota will ever be. Even if Dota might get higher stream numbers. (which is hardly MLG's primary concern as long as it's at an acceptable level)

I also think MLG is looking to provide more daily content and Dota 2 might be good for that since so many events are played online. Low investment and the ability for to broadcast something nightly in an NA time table. It would be cool if they teamed up with the American Dota league and got more money into the event.

Why is there no countdown timer in the top right like there is for ASUS ROG?


Isn't that slot paid for or am I thinking about something else entirely?

Seem to recall it coming up at a similar time to the stuff about whether TL should or shouldn't list early MLG arenas because they were entirely behind a paywall. I believe there was some discussion about TL wanting payment to advertise the event if it wasn't freely available.

I don't think MLG has much interest in the ADL. It's basically an amateur league with 3 good teams.

As said previously, I think what they will do is more like the D2L. Maybe top 4 on Lan final rather than top 2. But I doubt they're going full out. And I even more doubt they are doing anything 'all American'.

I don't know but I always thought that was a paid for ad slot.

The problem is right now, we already have an oversatutayion of long lasting, mediocre prizepool leagues. Having MLG make another league like this wouldnt even be beneficial for the growth of dota, unless it did something drastically different with the format. Either a majot LAN event, or some kind of organized league event is the only kind of thing they could really provide that contains actual value.

LoL, that's a paid for slot. So Valve is hating on Dota 2 by not paying TL. #thinkaboutit

That's a paid slot. Valve has to pay to put the countdown up there, and we all know Valve, they don't pay shit.
