Yus.. Hylis... 8 slots. It's such a shame.

If they format it anything like previous ones, where you might expect a slot for NA or Australia, or Poland, Germany or Portugal... and if they invite previous winner aAa (who split and do not care for the game), and I assume 2 for Fr qualifiers... and 2 invite slots... invitational qualifier... etc. Basically it can't be the same.
And some big team is going to be left out... and I can imagine I would be screwed here even if we just posted 2nd slot EPL and some of the best results for the last 6 months - but because we are not French we are often left out (not invited to EPL1, CES1, ESWC 2012...).

ESWC is a french event and it's basically for French players and teams.

Couldnt have said it better. France isnt the world last time I checked my atlas.

Hah, I can also make a movie "Germany in trouble" where story is about Indian cat.

I just know how it worked last year.

It's simply the French World of Electronic Sports with Cup.

But compared to the recent Dota cash prizes ESWC looks provincial...

Ehehe, be happy with what we have. ESWC is better than nothing! Im very grateful. Addition slots would be welcome tho

The size and countries are link to the state of the game. I hope it to increase, but I think we have to let time to grow, thanks to player support. Dota was first release in 2005, but was built upon one of the most advanced online company technology and assets of the years before from Blizzard. And it was already popular in 2008, 6 years ago, as seen as the most popular free game.

Time is time and only going in the positive way can accelerate it while we continue to work!

will we get any English coverage?

I don't know
