The International 2024 viewers saw a hint of a Deadlock tournament announcement

During the live broadcast of The International 2024 Dota 2 tournament, the video sequence unexpectedly changed to gameplay of the new Deadlock game, in what viewers saw a hint of the soon announcement of the first tournament in the new cybersport direction.

The incident occurred in the official Twitch broadcast of the tournament.

Indirectly, the community's speculation is confirmed by the appearance of caster Jake “SirActionSlacks” Kanner in the guise of Infernus, the hero of the new MOBA-shooter.

It is worth noting that Deadlock gathered a lot of positive feedback among professional Dota 2 players. Also around the game began to actively form a community of fans, despite the limited access by invitation.

Recall that Vladimir “Maelstorm” Kuzminov predicted the announcement of the first Deadlock tournament from Valve before the start of The International 2024.
