Posted by Vincent "em0_llama" Nunes 4 months ago
The first Nvidia Games Festival of 2010 is to be held in Shanghai and will comprise of Warcarft, Starcraft and DotA. This prestigious event will comprise of two different stages; online preliminaries followed by offline finals. As stated, the offline finals will be held in Shanghai, from 11th-12th April. All online preliminaries will be livecasted HERE every tuesday 19:00-22:00.
The teams participating in the online preliminaries are as follows:
Ehome CH Nirvana.cn Deity LGD(FTD)The match format will be best of one and it will be double elimination as there are only five teams. Three teams will then move forward to round two where they will battle for the sole spot in the offline finals against an invited international team. The winners will receive $3000 and the runners-up $1000.
With April fast approaching, all teams will be gearing up for what will prove to be an amazing tournament, but the question remains: who will be the invited international team?

| DDT or Nirvana.int will be invited. Loda and Kuro are the most popular international players in China |
| Ehome, LGD, and Nirvana will have better chance proceed to the round two. I hope they use v6.66b |
#2 ofc they use 6.66b...CH will defeat EH...  |
an invited international team wonder which team will be invited  |
it should be DDT ... loda is more popular than kuroky in china...beside ..nirvana.int vs nirvana.cn will be kind of  O_o |
| nice prizes |
| #5 I don't think that having the same sponsor is going to stop teams from trying to win against each other. Besides imo Nirvana.int is a better showcase of DotA talent outside of Asia. But popularity wise I agree that Loda has a bigger fanbase in China. I'll just hope the sponsors aren't Loda fanbois:D |
| must be Niv.int they have a lot of Players which Chinese like,what is more they have the same sponsor with Nir.cn(actually, i am not sure) lol |
| These big sponsors only dare to invest into China scene. With a reason. |
cant wait  |
the 1k prize money for international team is secured.  |
| foreign faces are good for publicity |
| I´d rather see them fight it off against MuShI-'s Nirvana.my team.. |
| it has to be nirvana.int unless the sponsors just want to prove once again DDT is just full of shit when it comes to the asian scene... saying they are the best in the world and that they will 100% crush any team they face.. then get stomped by 2-0. |
| Great, I m in Shanghai ^^ I must find how to get tickets :) |
| Weren't DDT just in China? Not so sure they wish to go back already, especially if they would have to pay themselves. |
| nice money ($)($) |
| its online.... |

| #18 "Three teams will then move forward to round two where they will battle for the sole spot in the offline finals against an invited international team." |
| aeon or nirvana.int i hope. |
| thx |
| $3000 ? wow such a big prize  give us some epic replay plox |
| nvidia LAN ftw. |
| this is a real tournament, played under the highest levels of play. comparing it to hazard or dreamhack is like comparing bruce lee to steven seagal :D    |
| i dont think its nirvana.int i think some mylasian or singaporian team will be invited |
| Cool |
| Agree with #26 It doesn't worth for Nirvana.int nor for DDT or any other teams from Europe/USA to arrive to Shanghai only for $3,000, even worse if they take 2 or 3 places 1000$ can't even pay for their ticket price. GL to everyone on that tournament, I'm very close to Shanghai, really hope to reach it while this tournament will be held. |
| Really guys what's ur problem? Is it the everday rape from evil uncles that has turned you into these persons? I mean do you actually feel that your posts are good? So many of you just have obvious flaws of character and I do not know where all the hate is coming from... I think it's time for dotaplayers to stop giving lessons and start handing out those hugs dray was talking about because you sure do need them :) 1: I for one would love nirvana.int to go to china for this event, I think they are a really good team and I like several of their players, actually I don't know when I said anything bad about them or if I even did. 2: Why would a team not be able to train and become better? Because the reasoning behind your words are that DDT can not go because we lost hard the last time we went to China? I wouldn't have time to go, but if any euro/us team went it's a good thing no matter the result |
since the international team can directly get through to the final, I hope the event organizer invite an asian team. dont let european team stain this high level pro tournament like DDT did in ADL.  |
| #30
|
| #30 i agree that netolic(USA) and DDT(denmark+sweden) did lower the level of play in the tournament, if kingsurf and starsboba played instead of them, ADL woulda been 100x better. on the other hand, 1 european team only coming to the tournament would be good, as they will not be able to take 1 tower in any game in the tournament, it will definitely create more excuses from their alleged fans and hence more tragedy in the everyday lives of these fanbois. |
| Ehome would take this. |
| #32 not even trying anymore wanna see ehome win this, can't wait |
| i'd roflmao if the foreign team was PMS... |
| mineski might win this tourney xD if they are invited |
| Ddt is better than old fnatic but they yet lose hard if they go to china. At the moment, nirvana is the best team from europe so they should go, they will lost anyway but would have a performance better than other european teams. |
| i want to see nirvana.my invited, i think it would be a big hassle for nirvana.int to come unless they've already been informed about this a month or two ago which would be weird since it's a relatively new team. |
| You guys should always check twice what youre posting because Loda is apparently reading! Behave yourself! And the int team is obviously Nirvana, if they want this to look serious. Or parhaps MYM but I doubt it. |
| gl to all |
| ROFL.. nVidia can surely SECURE THEIR TICKET... Thats why its called INVITATION... Its an special tournament also during that time, nVidia will release their new GeForce Graphics card showed at CIBET 2010. GF4000 serries cards. nVidia is not a poor company lol. Thats the reason why they only invite TOP DOTA CLANS in china and 1 TOP CLAN international. the 1kUSD i think is already a pocket money for international team. It should be, cause if their just inviting other asian team, well they wont be representing "international" in that sense. And im pretty sure, nVidia and other organizer are aware of this.. EU & US > ASIAN or ASIAN > EU & US dota... Inviting another ASIAN to represent International team is just BS.. |
| agreed with num.41!! |
| nirvana.int maybe kuroky said that he will come to China when he chated with EHOME.71 |
| CH CH CH CH CH CH. Forever longdd fan <3 |
| south american dota pls |
| everything about euro dota scene is overrated.. |
| 1k is enough for a international team to drunk their ass off after being Humiliated and raped when this tournament is over lol |
| #47 let see about that using 6.66b Maybe when using previous maps (farm oriented) asians have advantage. Cause thats how asians play, farm farm farm farm farm. Asian mastered CREEPING even in PUBS... |
| #48 pre manood ka nga cdec replay para malamn mo na kahit 66b imba ang chinese kumpara mo pa sa Dota pride replays.. |
| OMG loda raging.. just look at his guestbook message and u'll see why hahah lol |
