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

MWEB unveils their inaugural Dota 2 tournament

Really excited about this! I want to enter a team but 2 or 3 members are still without beta keys. Will 10ten or MWEB supply those beta keys or will this tournament only be open to teams where all the members already have beta access?

That is an excellent question sir. I shall try and find out.

MWEB has confirmed that you will need access to the Dota 2 beta in order to enter. They will not be able to hand out Dota 2 beta keys.

One can easily buy a key for $5 - $10. Though paying for a game that's going to be free to play does seem counter productive, the bright side is that by the time the game launches you'll have a few levels and be able to play in higher level games, and not the noobie-filled entry level games - not to mention all the items you'll find during the beta trials.

I'd like to enter but don't have enough friends who are interested.

I haven't played for a while, but previously the levelling system wasn't operational. Is it working now?

Maybe you can make a team up from guys on the MyGaming forum If you win I'll throw in some MyGaming swag :P

Unfortunately the keys sell for $39.99

No that's just the legendary pack. This includes a DotA2 invite along with like 10 item bundles for heroes like Axe, Natures Prophet, etc. All in all not a bad deal if you like lots and lots of items. Think of it as getting 40 items in Team Fortress 2. hats hats hats

Occasionally players get awarded "Treasure Chests" during games. These chests are free, and contain a random item, with chances of getting some exceedingly rare items or custom items. Unfortunately, you can only open these with a "treasure chest key" that you can buy from the DotA2 store. These keys cost $2.50 each. There are lots of players willing to trade a DotA2 invite for 2-3 keys, or for a custom courier (which starts at $8).

@James - yeah the leveling system seems to be working. Or at least, the illusion of it is :P

[_Caboose_]

Yes the leveling system is fine now james,

Also guys i will ask my friends if any has a spare key they willing to toss away, i will post in here tomorrow how many i manage to get my hands on and hand them out.

Joining the comp tho with my mates should be fun
