SA Dota 2 tournament launched by Mweb GameZone and 10ten Gaming

So if you haven't found reason enough to register yet we've been in contact with some top dota 2 teams regarding exhibition matches that would take place a couple of days after the group stages close (around the 23rd of July).

We've got positive confirmation from aL. We are currently in talks with mTw, and coL will confirm next week. These matches would be offered to the top teams heading into the knockout stages (basically the leading team in each group). What I'd like to know is if you guys have any specific teams in mind (aL and coL would have to be played on US East with around 300 ping which I found playable, but not sure how others will find it).

If we arrive at a situation where we have less international teams than group leaders it would be left up to a community vote.

So in essence this will be a MWEB hosted tournament with almost no South African teams playing...

I think you have entirely misunderstood the post. We have 29 registered teams for the tournament, all of which are South African teams (our rules also hold that only South African teams are eligible for the tournament).

The above post concerned what is termed "exhibition matches". They are not official games and are held entirely for the benefit of South African teams.
