OG Esports hosts Shanghai watch party for The International 2026
𝗢𝗚 𝗘𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗬𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗛𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗹 in Shanghai to host a 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗼𝗳𝗳𝘀. During the event, we had our players dropping by, hosted giveaways and also had DIY merch stations.
With 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 over the weekend, the watch party was truly a great success. We opened when games started and stayed all the way until the day ended, no exception.And yes, that means staying until 2AM one day! But this watch party wasn’t only about the games, it was about the community and our shared passion over Dota 2. When we host watch parties, our mission is to deliver the best fan engagement experience and to connect with both OG fans and Dota 2 fans alike.
𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 during the whole weekend, and we made sure to give the fans the very best. We hosted the 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝟭𝘃𝟭𝘀 and gave fans the opportunity to see how they match up to the pros. We also had several 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 for signed jerseys, shirts, and even a full night stay at Yineng Esports Hotel. And the most important for us: fans had the opportunity to chat to the players, play on-site games with them and just share their passion for Dota 2 even if for a brief moment.
Additionally, we also worked alongside two of our main partners to ensure an even better experience. We hosted a 𝗠&𝗚 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗹𝗮𝗯 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 on the 20th. For this activation, fans could see the exclusive Secretlab EVO chairs and meet two incredible cosplayers.
As the cherry on top, we gave away a 𝟰-𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 for TI t𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗼𝘀.com. We launched the Giveaway on our Facebook page, and chose one lucky fan as the winner. She enjoyed the full experience: watching the games live, meeting pro players, and enjoying every single activations that The International 2026 had to offer at the venue. You can see some glimpses of her experience in her Instagram page.
Coming back to China and meeting everyone was a memorable experience, and we can’t wait to see you all again!
