The International, the world’s largest esports tournament, is upon us. Since last year’s iteration of this epic DOTA 2 event, Valve introduced the Pro Circuit, which came with significant changes. The best DOTA 2 squads fought through 11 majors and 16 minors around the globe to earn points to qualify for The International 2018, or TI8.
The final 18 teams are about to compete in Vancouver – for the first time on Canadian soil. The ever-rising prize pool is already over $22 million. Observers project it will match or exceed the $24 million record set last year in TI7. We’re as excited as any esports fan for the biggest DOTA 2 event of the year and can’t wait for the action to begin. We’re happy to announce that GeForce is once again the graphics platform of The International with GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GPUs and Acer 240Hz G-SYNC Predator monitors powering the event.
