Well it was a lot easier back when they were just revealing heroes already in Dota Allstars.

New heroes now means actually new heroes.

Welp, not much left this TI for me, just hope Burning can take it somehow, honestly not a bad one but TI5 and TI6 so far have been much better.

The crowd are getting more obnoxious by the year.

All these crowd segments probably also attributed to more and more attention seeking behaviour of the crowd.

Hot take. Maybe they should just do away with those? it's not like as if World Cup or Superbowl or NBA finals do a lot ( if any) crowd activities. Crowd are just there for the reactions shots and noise/atmosphere. Maybe some half time activities.

I don't think the prizepool / ticket sales will be affected too. It's always sold out anyway.

It can't be 3 China team in the upper and lower bracket final. This is in Seattle and imagine the venue is only 40% occupied, with 5 stars red flag hanging around.

Even France can take down Brazil 1998 in state de france, why not Liquid win the aegis for odd year...

Real sports tournaments sustain themselves on the game itself. Not enough people care enough about Dota at a deep enough level for that (see all the whiners about Chinese teams around the net), and TI has always been marketed as a "community made" tournie.

Lolol this guy thinks real sports fanbases don't care about flags...
Average means I'm better than half of you.

I agree that more than the game is needed. Players and personalities are fine and definitely deserve great emphasis The involvement of John Patrick Lowrie was a great addition for example. In fact i think even real sports panders to a lot of these as well. The game is never enough by itself.

What i mean is getting rid of the crowd segment only which i think are not enjoyable and obnoxious and also doesn't exist in other games/sports.

What percentage of the interest generated are due to those crowd segments.
Say we remove crowd segments and we only use crowd mic/ crowd camera, will the prize pool drop or will the tickets suddenly not sold out anymore.

Somehow i doubt it..
