On July 21st, the fourth DotA2 International Championships came to an end. It was the most watched DotA2 event of all time, drawing more than 20 million total viewers. The tournament was also shown on ESPN3 and a preview of the finals was shown on ESPN2. The success of the tournament has led fans of Valves other eSports title, Counter Strike: Global Offensive to wonder about the games future. Many have called for Valve to hold a similar tournament for the game to give it the exposure they think it deserves. In reality, what Counter Strike need isnt an International, but a continuation and expansion of the support that Valve is already providing.
