Scanda!Help!The suspending payment of prize money of WpC ACE Dota 2 League 2013 in China
I am a loyal dotaer from China, and I think there's something important about a Chinese DOTA2 tournament WPC ACE Dota 2 League 2013 you need to know. WPC hasn't paid any bonus or prize money till now! Could you and Valve help us Chinese DOTA2 fans to sort the things out?
This is the link of the introduction to WPC ACE Dota 2 League: http://fight.pcgames.com.cn/368/3687207.html

WPC is organized by ACE (Association of China E-sports) whose chairman has nepotism relations with another game LOL. Therefore he always misuses his power to put DOTA2 teams down in several ways such as limiting the number of the DOTA2 tournaments they can join, cutting down the tournaments agonized by ACE itself and so on.

Tonight, the professional DOTA2 player DK. Lanm posted a message in SGamer forum to disclose the inside story of WPC. Here is the link: http://bbs.sgamer.com/thread-11944527-1-1.html. I can translate for you as follows:

标题:宝剑锋从磨砺出
Title: The edge of sword is sharpened by hardship
墙倒众人推在电竞圈早已屡见不鲜。随便说点我的想法吧。
It is common to see that everyone hits a person who is down in Chinese esports circle. There are some simple ideas I wanna share with you guys.
现在电竞圈很很多堵墙,我也不知道该如何去评价这些墙,因为大家都有共同的口号就是为了电竞圈的发展出力嘛。
Now in the Chinese epsorts industry there are many barricades on which I have no idea how to comment, because every barricade's creator has the same exucuse: they want to make contributions to esports.
每个人心目中都有自己的看法,究竟谁是好墙,谁是坏墙,还是留给时间去检验好了。
Everyone has his own opinion about which barricade is good for us or harmful to us. Time will prove.
我也是个俗人为奖金,顺带着为梦想去比赛。如果你问我奖金和梦想的比重,我也说不清,但很多时候走到了绝路上,钱根本催动不了一个人发自本能的坚持。
I am an ordinary guy who plays DOTA2 for either money or dream. If you ask me which one, dream or money, is more important to me, I can't figure out. However, time and time again when I am faced with terrible battle and desperate things, It is not money at all that drives me forward instinctively.
希望各位国内的赛事承办方多向V社,SL,MLG学习,人家进行的是一个计划,而我们只是运营一个赛事。
I hope each Chinese DOTA2 game organizer can learn more from Valve, SL, and MLG. These foreign DOTA2 games are more like processing a blue print, rather than running a simple game.
每个参与电竞的人都在为电竞做贡献,只是多少而已。如果你自己的定位是商人,那么还是不要把自己伪装成慈善家了。
Nevertheless we all contribute to esports. Howerver, if you are a blood-sucking merchant, plz don't pretend to be a charitarian.
就这么多吧,身在局中,不便多说。待到退役之后,愿以一页纸与各位聊聊神秘的中国dota圈。顺便把标题送给中国电竞,愿电竞早日进入奥运。
That's all. As an insider I can't tell more about what I think. After retirement I will write something to dig up the mysterious China DOTA circle.By the way, I use this title not only for self-encouragement, but also for the wish that one day esports could be admitted by Olympic Games.


It's pretty obvious that Lanm has some secret sorrow. He can't put it in precise and clear words but it should has something to do with certain organizations, leagues, etc. At the same time, 71, the coach of Team DK also responded to Lanm in the forum. Here are the screenshots.

What 71 means is that WPC still hasn't paid DK the one-million-RMB prize since DK won the Champion in Jan., 2014. The former professional player LongDD also confirmed the truth.
It's outrageous that China has the best dota fans but the most ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and sucky game organizations. I don't like any conspiracy theory, and it's possible that the sponsor delays the payment or the oganizer ACE misappropriates the money given by the sponsor, but anyway the truth is, DK, IG, LGD and other teams, none of them has got paid by WPC for about five months!
ACE is so powerful that it wants to manipulate all the DOTA2 teams, and most of the players have to involuntarily compromise. Thus ACE is very likely to be responsible for the misappropriation of the money. Professional players choose the silent resentment because once they revolt, they will be banned and isolated by ACE and has no game to join. Their career will be ruined. The dismiss of the former DOTA2 team Ehome was due to the tyranny of ACE
I think the suspending payment is a blemish to DOTA2. We fans buy the tickets and watch games with the client software, but at last we are told by our idol players that they didn't get paid. For crying out loud it's a fraud! If the fraud is real, Valve shouldn't have sold the tickets and put the crappy WPC in the client software.
As Chinese DOTA2 teams are controlled by ACE, so Chinese DOTA2 fans need a strong, just and righteous third party to deal with the problem.Therefore, On behalf of the Chinese DOTA2 fans, I venture to write this email to you. I wonder if you can let Valve know the situation and suggest Valve investigate the issue. ACE deserves some punishment. Plz stop it from cheating Chinese fans and making money with DOTA2!
