The ten year anniversary of Dota's public release is coming up (yes, we're working on some fun stuff for it; no, we're definitely not going to hit the July 9th date listed on Steam). As anniversaries go ten years is a big one, and while looking back is important, what's more important is how we approach the ten years to come.
I don’t know what this means for the future of Dota, but at least we can say the days of huge TI prize pools seem to be over (huge relative to prior TIs and not saying this is good or bad).
