“Never before has Singapore hosted such a world-class esports event. The world’s best Dota2 teams will compete. Nine teams were at the past International and competed for the $34M prize pool. The best on-air talent will cast and commentate – 11 of them covered the last International as well. The best cosplayers will perform – one of which, Redemption Props, won the TI9 Best in Show award. And, with our partner, PGL, we will deliver a game-changing esports experience for the teams, fans, and spectators. The stage set-up alone will certainly wow everyone!” Carlos Alimurung, CEO of ONE Esports
What Dota 2 tournament would be complete without the passionate cosplaying community? In order to make this a world class esports event, the organiser has also confirmed that there will indeed be popular Dota 2 cosplayers at the event. Just to name a few, it would be cosplay winners from the KL Major – Darryl Izzy (Dragon Knight) and Vinca Kazuki (Vengeful Spirit). That’s not all, Redemption Props will also attend the event (as Drow Ranger) and have a meet-and-greet with their fans as well.
Fans who would like to attend the event can either purchase tickets, or participate in the “Our Game, Your Story” contest. By sharing in a Facebook post how DOTA 2 has impacted their lives, complete with the hashtags #ONEDota2 and #OGYS, they stand a chance to win themselves a trip for two to Singapore to join in on all the DOTA 2 madness. Simple right? Contest ends on the 5th of December.
Besides that, select DOTA 2 pro teams will also hold a one hour meet-and-greet session with the fans across all three days of the event. Priority will be given to those with VIP and Cat 1 tickets.
The event will also see a fully stocked merchandise store that will carry exclusive DOTA 2 Singapore event apparel, accessories, official DOTA 2 merchandise from the competing teams, as well as official ONE Esports gear.
