It doesn’t actually look like that. For the broadcast video they put that over the upper deck. One player had his head completely missing when the camera was on him.
This is the most gamer arena I’ve ever seen. The stained glass was perfect design choices. I feel like I’m about to watch people try to kill eachother for honor & glory
Just remember kids – all that from a WarCraft 3 custom map. Dream big and make things. How butt-mad do you think Blizzard execs and board members were over this whole story lol
I’m at The International as I write this: this is *not* what it looks like. That’s Lower Level 1 seating with everything above (about half the seating, lounges and jumbotron) removed and replaced entirely with CGI. Looks cool, but wildly misleading and highly inaccurate.
Just gorgeous

Imagine all the right mouse button clicks to get there
So you saying they went to church?
That probably set a record for the most toxicity ever recorded in one location.
Absolutely massive events.
Yet when I try to play DoTA 2. Long queue times and then all it finds are smurfs to play against.
Ah yes I also play Dota in the Kalos region Pokémon League arena
Yeah , i’m getting the vibe of Kingdom Hearts here .
Is it CGI or something? because I don’t think they construct a Cathedral on top of a Stadium for E-sports.
Holy shit.
Something huge and amazing
Looks like a Ghost concert.

When the stage looking better than the whole community of this trash…
That is beautiful.
What are the five images under the aegis?
From the lightning and the tempest, our Emperor, deliver us!
I still hate how Dota, and later automated hosting bots spamming lobbies completely destroyed WC3 era BattleNet.
Simple and clean?
All of of this for a video game?
Yeah
Impressive for a game I have never met a player for. DOTA does not come up in the larger gaming community often outside of its impressive tournaments.
That’s fucking beautiful
it looks phenomenal
[deleted]
Amazing
it was absolutely perfect
when you want you stage to look like a Dark Souls boss arena
So they spent the money on stained glass instead of new cosmetics for their battle pass?
Down-vote me all you want, but I still get to feed as io in his compendium exclusive heart box.
Is that church?
Where is that? Is it a massive church?
Where they find that many dota fans lol that’s awesome
Good way to hide empty seats
Majestic. Hot damn.
As I always said, Dota is a religion
This year theme are definitely the best yet for the International
Dying game, though
Praised be Icefrog.

This is by far the most pathetic thing I have ever seen in my life. Hordes of people packed into a stadium to watch people play video games.
This is ever more pathetic than watching streamers.
Its incredible. Would be nice if they did this for a major in cologne as its the “cathedral of counter strike”
I can hear the background music:
*When you walk away… you can hear me say…*
Only a stage of cheating kids who have never played/play/will play at least one fair-play game.
It looks like a church, and that is right. Everything around Valve is just a cult of very dangerous sycophants of that “man” and his “platform”.
