Rumor says Valve is scrapping Dota 2’s regional leagues after TI12 but we’re not convinced
The time between major Dota 2 events is always full of rumors about the game and its competitive scene, however, the validity of those discussions is almost always suspect. That holds true with recent talk coming from the upcoming BetBoom Dacha where a few notable Dota personalities mentioned Valve potentially discontinuing the current DPC format and moving on from regional leagues.
According to analyst Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov an “insider rumor” that Valve will abandon the DPC that was established in 2021 and revert back to a more hands-off approach while letting third-party organizers take control with a new system.
