Sweden, thanks for fucking up.
A simple message from a Southeast Asia (SEA) fanatic.
Thank you for erring and fucking up the chance to hold The International 10 in Sweden and depriving the passionate Swedish esports fans of being hosts to the crown jewel Dota 2 tournament.
You may give reasons citing COVID19 and that’s fair.. Oh wait.. Is it?
To my 200-IQ photographic memory, the PGL CS:GO Major 2021 was hosted a week after The International 11 concluded, that too at the same venue – Avicii Arena.
Oh my god, such a wonderful thing to do by making the passionate Dota 2 fans wait for two additional months to witness the crown jewel event unfold.
You had one job, and you fucked up.
You had the chance, but you lost it.
Now we (SEA) have a chance, and we grabbed it.
Karma is bitch indeed.
The International 11 comes to Singapore and we will show the world just how passionate we really are.
We no longer have to be awake at god awful odd hours and struggle to watch the mega event in peace and with equal passion and thrill.

We don’t have to spend excess $$ to travel all the way to Europe, scrabble our heads to procure visas and go through a painful process, or deeply empty our pockets.
Sweden may be the birthplace of esports, but SEA is a different behemoth altogether.
We are a legion.
We are the best.
This isn’t a rant.. or maybe it is?
With love,
SEA.

Let's all enjoy basking in the most glorious event esports has seen.
