Steveling Greece10806 Posts August 01 2011 20:34 GMT #261 Disregard my last post. Valve announced a 1mil tourny with the top 16 Dota teams in the world, to showcase Dota 2 in 17th-21th August. That's huge news for the esports world.

cmen15 United States1519 Posts August 01 2011 21:22 GMT #265 Amazing story, I'm really happy that you took the time to write this out for everyone. I learned so much about Esports. Thanks : )

SidianTheBard United States2474 Posts August 01 2011 21:22 GMT #266 It's amazing reading about all the Counter Strike stuff back in 2004 & 2005 because that's when I use to play it 24/7 pretty much and would watch all these games. Seeing Complexity get 5th place was amazing especially since all their players were more unknown. Great write up. ^5

zoLo United States5896 Posts August 01 2011 21:43 GMT #270 AWESOME post. I started following eSports because of CS and eventually started following other games like WC3, SC, Quake, etc. Reading this gave me nerd chills because eSports has gone a long way.

bkrow Australia8532 Posts August 01 2011 22:03 GMT #275 So it took 14 pages of posts for me to actually get through reading the whole thing A nice read and always entertaining to be reminded of the SK-fnatic duel :p it's also interesting to see the evolution of titles that are included at major events particularly the influx of MOBA games LoL/DotA etc

Novalisk Israel1818 Posts August 01 2011 22:16 GMT #280 Man that ESWC 2006 picture is sick. I went to the ESWC website out of curiousity and it looks like the finals will be in the same venue this year, and SC2 will be included.
