The build-up is nearly over and the hype and excitement is sweeping through the Dota community. Valve’s first Major to hit the Philippines is now imminent.
It feels like an age ago that we saw Team Secret win convincingly in Shanghai, where the great quality Dota 2 was marred by a series of unfortunate production events. It is well known that James "2GD" Harding was let go by Valve in the midst of the tournament, and the company responsible for running the English production was also replaced.

![Core Keeper key art 1 [Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity](https://mcvuk.com/wp-content/uploads/Core-Keeper-key-art-1-310x165.jpg)
More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
