Stockholm Major Prediction Contest

We've always loved hosting competitions for our community. We've ran several bracket contests in the past and, way back when, we even hosted the LiquidDota Hero Challenge series. However, as of late we haven't done as many of these. That's going to change. And we're going to start off with a prediction competition for the Stockholm Major.

The entire competition will be hosted through Google Sheets. The link to the sheet isn't active yet as we don't know the matchups yet. Once we know all the information we'll make sure everyone is aware that the competition is open and you can fill it out. We'll link it from all the LR threads, the top of the site, and feel free to discuss it here.

But that's not all. In order to keep everyone updated on the competition we have created a Discord bot to help you track of the top 10 as well as your own score. Here's what it looks like. You can use the button below to join the Discord. If you have any issues joining, let us know and we'll correct it for you! We also want you to join Discord to trash-talk us (or receive your fair share if you fail with your predictions).


How to enter

The document can look intimidating at first but don't worry, filling it in is easy. The completed doc will also have examples from LiquidDota staff members. We still made a quick guide for you. If you're still confused, join the Discord and we'll get you sorted!
  • Overview sheet
    • Enter your LiquidDota username

  • Group Stage / Playoffs sheets
    • Your name will have been automatically filled in on these pages, assuming you followed the instructions above.
    • Fill in your prediction, under your name, in the following format: WINNER GAMESWON-GAMESLOST
      • Example:

Prizes


As this is the first time we'll run the competition we see this as more of a trial run. So for this we will "only" offer a custom title for the forum, which comes with bragging rights until the next major. If everything goes well, we fully intend to have some better prizes for you in the future.

Other contests


For those looking for more than one contest, have a look at the DreamLeague 11 Fantasy Dota Heroes page that ThePianoDentist created!

So the Discord channel is pretty dead right now but it'll be heavily used in the upcoming days and throughout the event. So don't be scared just cause the last message was.... well mid last year :D

I'll drag you to the signup if I have to!

Sidenote: the bot is now live on Discord but the doc is still locked.

cool cool. looks fun, will enter when sure of any teams stand-ins/late withdrawals etc :D
(Im sure having major start literally less than a week after minor is a bit dodgy. do teams have to arrange visas assuming they will win the minor? seems questionable to me)

(I assume entering scores manually, or linking it up to liquipedia which is trustworthy. but on the off-chance relying completely on the dota2 official API....watch out!
learnt that with mdl macau, often admins remake the games as all-pick, yet the 'unplayed' captains mode game still gets into the api...with a completely random winner!)

Can I predict I will there watching it instead of doing document or discord stuff? I think that has pretty decent odds for me. :p

Having somebody to watch the games with on the Friday would be nice. My friends are joining on the weekend, they are too casual to take a day off work. :D

Sounds like a plan, I'll drop you a PM a bit closer to the actual day. Or you send me one in case I forget

From what I heard from one of the players, they all apply for w/e Visa they need for the Major before they play at the Minor because yeah... there just isn't enough time to do it afterwards in pretty much every case.
