I think saying "hey look... this tournament at the end of the year will pay out 1.7 million dollars, so play it and get good!" would be a great way to attract players.I don't think Valve needs to showcase the game. DotA has well over 10 million players worldwide. All they need to do is showcase it and let all HoN/LoL/DotA players out there know this is coming. | ||

If I were a betting man, in terms of success DOTA 2 would be a shoe in  I didn't say it wouldn't be succesful man, but with how popular and (free) LoL I doubt it will become THE Moba game as quickly as they want. And as I said Valve has been using TF2 to experiment with a whole lot of stuff, so I don't doubt that DOTA 2 will follow a model similar to TF2 and LoL. And yeah, DotA 2 will be succesful, the matter will be how much? | ||

This is exactly why. HoN is doing a major push by trying to get themselves in every major event. They've been added to NASL, speculation for IGN and are everywhere now. Valve doesn't want that. They want all of the competitive dota-esque players in the world to get ready to play dota2. | ||

Being able to segregate all of your friends into separate circles and then being able to easily pick and choose which circles see your wallposts is an amazing change. I don't really use Twitter, so I won't speak towards that. | ||
