ppd: “I don't think [Dota is] in a worse spot compared to maybe the LCS or Overwatch League”
blix.gg
The return of The International to the city of Seattle ushered in a sense of homecoming to those who have been well immersed in the game for as long as one can remember. After spending the past six years seeing the event make its presence in different parts of the world, the scene welcomed back the Pacific Northwest city to serve as the forefront of the Dota world.

    Considering Overwatch world cup viewership is like 4 times lower than TI that was in worst possible time zone this year, yeah I would say Dota is in a better spot.

      Isn’t Overwatch viewership like having the stream open for 2 hours gives you free cosmetics. I don’t really trust those kind of viewership numbers when people just leave the stream on but aren’t necessarily engaged or viewing the stream

    I mean ultimately it’s Dota, CS and LoL as T1 esports (and I guess PUBG Mobile or some shit). CoD, OW, Fortnite, Halo, R6 and Apex are irrelevant/on life support, Valo is too early to tell… for better or worse Dota is a positive example.

    Idk About LCS, its still going strong albeit facing some hassles. But OWL has bombed atm and they need to rethink their approach as they made pretty bad decisions.

    ppd makes too many statements and appears on my feed way more than a 1 tournament fluke should.
