Well I always felt like liquid wasn't really promoting their dota squad very much. It may be false but you don't want fans to get that impression. Besides, it seems like kuro has wanted to do this forever.

Liquid's sponsors probably were focused on NA public, hence CS:GO squad got more promotion. This and liquid being a NA org and the dota team was EU

I thought since they merged with Curse it was all NA based?
However, gl to the players. I doubt anything will change for fans. They never did anything for publicity and won't do it now either. Just show up to majors and TI and disappear in between.

The Dota team has always been managed from the Netherlands offices. Csgo and lol are managed by the US offices.

This is a bit of an oversimplification of course, since it's all teamliquid, but yeah

think it could be fair to say that most of the marketing etc is from the Curse side so it's very NA focused and ultimately dota is kinda, not popular outside of dota fans xd

I loved our dota team but it was sometimes impossible to get a hold of them to do anything content-wise and by sometimes I mean pretty much always xD

The original NA roster was pretty much always down to do stuff. I used to hit up Mike and Bulba regularly to do columns in our articles ("Bulba says" and "Mike's Mustache" lol).

In all honestly I wouldn't blame the recent Liquid, as I think a lot of it is just the scene changing overall. Players/managers are just a lot less accessible. We starting noticing it when we tried to revive the 20-20 interviews and it was WAY harder to get people, when we used to be able to get almost anyone at any time

Yea, it's kinda obvious players don't care about this stuff most of the time. The short video at the beginning of TI where players thank Dota fans "for making this possible" is the extend of how far many will go to create publicity.

What is taking so long with the roster shuffle. I keep checking everyday and there is barely any news (if there was then there is no news on the big teams only rumors)
this is a quote

Cuz the scene is dead. All the teams accepted OG will win every TI from now on and the rest ofthe season is not worth playing for.

Maybe not. But there is no pressure to release anything until qualifiers start. And everybody wants to ride the biggest publicity wave possible.

I just landed in Edinburgh. May come by Glasgow on the way to loch Lomond. Haven't convinced the wife to drive into th city yet.
Ah no it's a bad excuse but the best I've got 😅
Last chance would be sept. 27/28th I think, when returning to Edinburgh.
