General DiscussionQuestion

Yes

is there no Japanese pro Dota 2 player?*

Is there even Japanese Dota 2 players? There is Japan server tho

iceiceice is JAP? I thought he is Malay hmmm ok.

iceiceice is from singapore, right?

iceiceice aint jap lol

pretty sure japs are mostly console gamers

dota doesnt have many hero like cm or lina lol why jap bother to play dota when u can see ur waifu 24/7

People here mostly play handheld systems like PS Vita or Nintendo 3DS. Also, many Japanese are pretty grounded in reality. Most dont want to risk their future to (maybe) become a dota pro.

Japanese only play games that have characters carrying a katana on a train.

The japs have been left in league or osu

So its safe to assume Japs don't play DOTES because not enough WAIFU material?

i think the highest japanese player's MMR was around 5.5k~, so that might be a slight problem
also, from a 2013 PCWorld article (so i'm not sure how up-to-date this is or if it applies to DotA tournaments anymore):

In Japan, strict gambling laws outlaw many forms of competition for monetary gain. The government has carved out exceptions for major sports like baseball, but fighting games haven’t reached that stature yet.

@dodong yes its safe to assume that ! i hope icefrog make new hero cute or sexy so jap will play but only spam that hero lol
