Valve wants to move the second qualification to the ranking tournaments a week in advance. Many teams protest against this decision.
Valve announced that the patch will be released after the first major and therefore asked DreamHack to move the qualifying round one week ahead, namely from December 1-6, to 8-14.
This request caused a lot of dissatisfaction, as the team managers purchased tickets for the players and rented places for bootcamps, spending all the money on it. In addition, if the qualification is transferred, it will intersect with another championship, ieSF. Many teams want to take part in this tournament for the national teams, and it will be held from November 13 to 14. In the same numbers, participants of ONE Esports Dota 2 World Pro Invitational Singapore should fly to China to prepare for the championship for $ 500,000. He, by the way, will be held from December 17 to 22.
Visible ways out of this situation will incur large financial costs. If you want to agree to these conditions, the e-sports clubs will have to reorganize everything and, accordingly, it is good to spend money on it. DreamHack can cover their costs, but in this case they themselves will be at a disadvantage, incurring serious losses. The only option without large financial losses is to conduct qualifications on the originally planned dates. Valve, of course, would not just ask to postpone the selection process. The patch will be of impressive size, and the small amount of time that players will have before the start of qualifications will not be enough to study new mechanics.
