I'm sorry but is this Dota tournament not going to have any downtime?

This does not help attract sponsors also. This is like putting on the US Open and British Open at the same time.

Hockey and NBA finals happen at the same time, but you would think there is less fan overlap than SC2 and DOTA/LoL.

I really can't figure out the logic that led whoever made this scheduling decision into thinking it was a good idea. Unless they were somehow forced to not only host all three of their regional finals on the same weekend, but also have that weekend be the same as one of the most hyped tournaments of the year in any game, it's just a bad business decision. Given the two tournaments involved, it's way more likely to be WCS coming out on the losing end of the viewership competition. Even if you had no idea about the Dota2 scene (like myself), 5 minutes of research is enough to get the picture.

If they were forced by some unfortunate circumstances, I would love to know what they are. Otherwise, it's just another nail in the coffin for WCS.

Everyone makes it sound like they just came up with this date today. Chances are this was a date they have had booked way before Valve announced their plans for TI3.

TI3 date has been known for months now. Considering a WCS season is only 2-3 months... yeah they could've tried to find a better date. Hell, having it during the week is probably better than colliding with TI3.

I will be watching The International, no doubt. I love SC2 and its my favorite game but The International is fantastic, must watch stuff. SC2 stuff is only regions...

This is a really poor decision. I will be watching TI3, partly since I had already made plans to do so. I'm not going to try and watch them both at the same time. :\

Yea, I doubt that's the case, but they'll probably be using that excuse as damage control.

Incontrol posted on reddit that Blizzard is currently working on a solution. But to put it simply, they should have noticed the problem before publicize the date from the first place. To make such crucial mistake means that their esport department clearly isnt doing their job right. I really hope somebody gona take a blame for this :|

EDIT: Worth mentioning not to long after this post I was contacted/had a conversation with a blizz employee that is pretty high up (just don't want to name drop) and we discussed this. Blizz is aware, things are complicated but they are working on solutions. I posted emotionally and while I did that because I fucking love this game and get really upset/sad when i think things are done poorly I need to remember I have a big platform to speak from. Basically, this isn't good. Blizz knows/cares and is working to communicate their thoughts and make things better moving forward. I will still be here and I have faith things can/will get better.

Wait? TI3 will have the biggest prize pool of the year. That won;t be for long because i'm sure LoL's Season 3 world play off would have more.

don't understand why sync them. You can't watch everything because you have to sleep. A weekend for each region is a much better choice in my opinion
