favorite The International tournament?

Would have to be a tossup between TI5 and TI6

TI5 in 2015 was special to me since I had friends stay overnight to watch the finals (which was 3 AM Philippine time), a feat given we were adults in our 20s and I don't live in Metro Manila. The meltdown of the most dominant team in the history of Dota 2 (until 2023 anyway), Team Secret, was also so shocking it would probably be remembered as the biggest upset in TI history were it not for TI6.

But TI6. Oh man I loved TI6. OG, the winner of all 3 Majors leading up to TI, getting surprise swept by MVP Phoenix (a Korean team, but in Dota, Korea was part of the SEA server) and then getting DESTROYED in the lower bracket by TNC, a Filipino team of talented then-nobodies, was so insane I watched my Twitter timeline all simultaneously go "holy shit" and the host toss away all his papers right on camera.

That changed everything. Apart from Mineski's showing at TI1 (where they won 1 game), Filipino teams had no international relevance whatsoever. They struggled to even qualify for tournaments outside their region, and when they did they lost all their games. TNC making it to the top 8 at TI6 by taking down the kings led to a revival of the local scene. The local competition got fiercer, new blood came in to replace the same old washed up names, and Filipino names actually regularly show up in tournaments even until now (with some of our best then getting poached by NA/EU tier 2 teams lmao)

Third place would be TI10, because Team Spirit was just so exciting to watch. Their drafts were ultra aggressive, tightly executed, and singlehandedly defined the meta for months afterward. Nobody gave a fuck about Magnus as a Pos 3 until Collapse terrorized the otherwise invincible LGD with him. My favorite TI champs to date.

For those who follow me and don’t know, I’m a massive Dota nerd and what is essentially our world championships (The International, or TI) started its main stage today.

This was basically me the entire day. Please enjoy this mental image.

Valve Reportedly Made Nearly $300 Million From 2022 Dota 2 Battle Pass as TI11 Prize Pool Hit 7-Year Low

Valve made some big changes to the Dota 2 battle pass system for 2022, splitting it into two distinct parts for the first time and spreading the content out over a five-month period. That decision seems to have paid off for the company, as reports show that paid content brought in around $293,024,922 from Sept. 1 to Jan. 12. The Dota 2 battle pass system underwent significant revisions from Valve in 2022, including the first-ever division into two separate halves and the distribution of the content across a five-month period. The company's move appears to have paid off, as statistics indicate that from September 1 to January 12, sponsored content generated about $293,024,922 in revenue. And now the company is facing backlash as the Dota community compares that margin of profit to how much of it went back into the competitive scene. Each year, Valve typically puts 25 percent of all total battle pass-related purchases back into the game, which adds up to The International’s prize pool for that competitive season. This has led to TI becoming the most lucrative esports tournament each year since 2015. Not only that, but every iteration of TI since the original in 2011 surpassed its predecessor’s total prize pool—though that 10-year streak was snapped with TI11. While Valve did still contribute the usual 25 percent kickback to TI11’s prize pool, that only held true for Part I of the battle pass, which ran from Sept. 1 to Nov. 2. After that point, all profits from the battle pass went directly into Valve’s pockets. At the end of Part I the TI11 prize pool settled at $18,930,775, combining the crowdfunded sum of $17,330,775 to the base $1.6 million Valve always contributes. That was nowhere close to TI10’s record-setting $40,018,400 total and it finished barely ahead of TI5, snapping the historical streak and leaving the community to reflect on what could have been. Depending on which figures you look at, that reported ballpark of $293 million in battle pass profits could have translated to a TI11 prize pool of over $70 million. That would have shattered every existing esports record by a factor of $10s of millions, however, the competitive Dota community wasn’t even expecting that. Several players and personalities in competitive Dota have noted that TI being the biggest prize pool each year is fine, but making it such a lucrative event while not supporting the rest of the scene in a more substantial way could actually be hurting Dota. When Valve announced it would not be giving any of the Part II battle pass profits toward the TI prize pool, those same personalities were hopeful it would instead be putting it back into the scene in other ways. That has seemingly not happened, however, with the current listings and projections for each Dota Pro Circuit regional league, and the Majors in 2023, all having the exact same prize pools as the previous year. Maybe Valve will implement changes to this practice in the future, but considering the company was able to flip public perception of the battle pass fairly easily from negative to positive thanks to its free TI11 Swag Bag and additional content, it is unlikely. This is especially true since Dota 2 hit over one million players for the first time since March 2019 in October. Read the full article
