interesting read, at the end of the day it's a business venture and it works for the business and the team so hey, more power to that

I'm curious to see how they approach a marketing and advertising with the team.

Maxor3421d ago

Makes perfect sense. This is nothing more than good marketing research.

Valve: 'Smurfing Is Not Welcome In Dota', Bans 90,000 Accounts

Valve has spoken out forcefully against smurfing in Dota 2 after banning more than 90,000 accounts - and targeting their owners.

It’s like on COD where they do bad on purpose for a few rounds, to then be place with with bad players to then dominate.

This is human nature. I know people who do this in Dota2, CoD and other multiplayer games. They enjoy the dopamine rush that winning generates.
