Interesting how much of a focus on Overwatch there is from the Tom's crew - six articles in the last month, including a new character announcement (twice), physical release, and mentions of the new pro league. While I've got nothing against Overwatch, if Tom's is going to do this for eSports then games like League of Legends and CS:GO really deserve some more time too (0 and 1 articles in the last year, respectively).

Cheers.

What about Dota2 that is breaking another world record with over 23 million dollar prize pool this year? First place is getting almost 10 million dollars. It will take place at Seattle and begins next week.

The only thing Dota2 has going for it is the big community driven prize pools. It is a far less followed game in esports behind the big boys.

Because Valve doesnt even have to try to set something... Community do all the work.

Valve doesn't even invest in advertising on Dota 2.
