this is actually gonna be very good. we will actually be able to see the best pro player. mmr will no longer mean everything, or will it?
The intention is to encourage more non-valve tournaments so that the pro scene can become healthier.
The prizepools will be lower unless they somehow involve crowdfunding outside of TI.

it's fine as long as it's consistent
it might help with the "95% of the dota money goes to t1 teams and the rest doesn't get anything" issue
There won't be valve majors, but there will be more third party majors then before, which will be sponsored by valve.
I'm pretty sure this is in response to the concerns that Tobiwan raised about a week ago. Their changes are very similar to the suggestions he made.

Read the article I posted and read the link the OP posted and it will all make sense pretty much
Seems more like a regular season to be honest. Valve is going to sponsor events and they must meet qualifications to be valve sponsored and count towards qualifying towards TI. And with a point system towards TI now you essentially have a regular season. Seems cool to me I just hope it all remains crowd funded and they don't charge to watch. And I hope valve promotes on dota2 feeds in game so I don't have to look around much to find good tournaments.
