as if anyone will pick this hero in pro dota. He needs way too much farm to be of any use

No disrespect but i think Kennigit is a bit late to make it into the documentary.... most dota2 community dont even know who he is. More likely this is Valve planning out some sort of tournament circuit and they want to gather all the major parties to run the damn thing. With this, there most likely comes some internal build/features that valve doesnt want to leak out so they invite representatives of tournament organizations to try it hand on.

The only inconsistent point is that 2GD and Bruno, representing Dreamhack studio, came way earlier than the rest(2 weeks ago?). But given the creativity background of 2GD and Bruno, i wouldnt be suprise if Valve decided to run things through them first.

Tbh, a lot of people are hype about the voice work of heroes... Well dont. Voice acting is often extremely time consuming and requires professional. Plus the assets, development cycle of the dota2 team just doesnt add up with all the tease(2gd+bruno teased techies, LD teased pitlord).

My prediction is that Valve is finalizing the fantasy league and partner compendium system. Test it out now with organization, take feedbacks and release the patch in ~2-4 weeks.

First of all, no dota 2 personality will ever do the voice of a hero in Dota. It simply will not happen.

Secondly, there will be no circuit run by Valve, ever.

So what could it be? Well it doesn't have to 'be' anything special, it could be that they are making improvements to the eSports systems and just want to bring people in to talk about it. It could be that they are doing a private screening of the completed documentary. It could be that they are putting more effort into the TI4 qualifiers and that they need to work things out between the studios to see who will do what.
