I remember hearing something about Valve working on coming out with some kind of LAN version of Dota for tournament organizers? Or is that something else I'm thinking of...

Still unreal that every LAN tournament is plagued with lag issues. DOTA TV is just not worth the hassle and should go the CS:GO route with host pc

i think one limitation of this approach is that casters would have to be in china though? i remember someone telling me this but i don't know why this is the case

Hmm, do you know if these have been utilized in any tournament before? And if so which?
I'm curious, because I can't recall a tournament that hasn't had lag or disconnect issues in the last little while. So I'm curious what the problems are coming from in tournaments like Summit 2.

To be honest there hasn't been much issues with lag in this tournament. You got a bad timing there, the tournament is running smoothly which feels great. Yep, Day 2 and Day 3 have mostly been good so far. Day 1 had really nasty delays at the beginning, but besides that, it's pretty decent compared to the average non-TI tourney.
funfact: delays on day 2 were only 10 minutes less than on day one and day three was worse than day1 for the first game. power of selective perception ftw.
edit: dreamhack and esl one used it for one game / one day. you dont have access to dotatv if you host on local lobbies and the replays can not be added to the tournament, but its fully possible to have this games played on lan, but if they did that they wouldnt have english casters because perfect world was too greedy to actually have english coverage there which would kill any future event of this kind.
its perfect worlds mixture of incompetence and greed that leads to this and nothing else.

Chinese reshuffle is about to begin in a few weeks. so what? money is a motivator, always. I sure as hell would bust my ass to try and get some extra money / prestige particularly if i wan't a better deal for myself as a player in the reshuffle... so that argument falls flat on it's face. I would say its one of the most important times.
