[Update #2] We have confirmed that it was an electrical surge that caused the LAN cables to burn out. The organisers are currently working on replacing them and rebooting the system. Any reports of an open fire have been proven to be false.
So apparently now we're having our largest Dota 2 tournament (largest in SEA) with more than USD 100k prize pool
And right now
- internet is down. so the games are on hold now - the players can hear the casters easily in the booth - the electricity of the player booth is not working - cockroaches in the player booth - plastic chairs - they dont use real PC's at the event at all. Players/casters have small remote clients - apparently something is burning in the player booth (burning smell) - games started without caster because caster's weren't informed - media and casters cant connect their PCs/laptops to the network. so no photos and videos from event - apparently attendees got chased out from seatings b/c wrong place only later to find out it's actually the right place
I took this information from a caster on twitter. Apparently that's what he said. I can't confirm because literally no information is coming out from that event.
aku simpati sebenarnya sebab aku agak berharap gak yang event ni akan berjalan lancar orang semua puji mesia..
tapi bila aku tengok gambar gambar dari event gile cheap macam karnival ekspo aku bayangkan event tu somewhere near TI4 punye standard memandangkan harga tiket dia macam nak sembelih orang
