Following some brutal losses, Complexity and Team Secret try to stay alive in the Lower Bracket, while Evil Geniuses, LGD Gaming, EHOME, and CDEC Gaming try to keep their momentum alive. This is one of the biggest eSports events of the year, with the first place team taking home $6,470,659. Here are the brackets going into today's proceedings, courtesy of the official Dota 2 International website.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
