we actually did it because they just confirmed the broadcast rights were secured for the tournament. i dont think i could have done this without all of you sticking with me through the silence. thanks for keeping the pressure on until they finally listened.

The International 5 on Astro?? Why not? #TI5ONTV

Don't forget to share this petition! Without shares the words wouldn't spreading!

Like our Facebook to easily viral this petition!


What is this?
We are a minority from Malaysian DotA 2 communities hoping Astro can bring The International 5 tournament on the TV.


Why?
  1. Spreading positive in the community.
  2. To show people what is eSports.
  3. Knowing there's a Malaysian team called Fnatic fighting for millions Dollar.
  4. And many mores..


What is Astro?
All-Asian Satellite Television and Radio Operator (or better known as Astro) is a Malaysian direct broadcast satellite (DBS) Pay TV service. It transmits digital satellite television and radio to households in Malaysia and Brunei and has operations at the All Asia Broadcast Center located in Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur and MEASAT in Cyberjaya.


What is The International?
The International Dota 2 Championships 2015 will be the fifth annual edition of The International. This will be the fourth consecutive year that the tournament will be hosted in Seattle, and the second consecutive year that the Main Event will take place at Key Arena, a multi-purpose arena in Seattle Center with a total seating capacity of over 17,000. With the prize pool of $13,000,000.


What is DotA 2?
Dota 2 is a multiplayer online battle arena video game, the stand-alone sequel to the Defense of the Ancients (DotA) Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne mod. Developed by Valve Corporation, Dota 2 was released as a free-to-play title for Microsoft Windows, OS X and Linux in July 2013, concluding a Windows-only public beta testing phase that began in 2011. The game is available exclusively through Valve's content-delivery platform, Steam.

Good news! MasterRamen told us that Astro have already sent a request to Valve. "If the petitions for Astro you wasting your time. They are already asking valve to show ti5. The question now will valve allow them" Now it's our task to spread the words so Valve can see this thing and considered approve it! #TI5ONTV

Salam Ramadhon. We ( gamers ) would be very pleased if Astro could show all the Dota's gameplay on the tv as our national dota gamers have reached the international level along with their superb success. Hopefully by this way it'll increase our national sport status. #420 #b4l0t

please broadcast this event. Malaysian team (Fnatic) is one of the most high rated team in the tournament, they bring Malaysian name into the world and they really struggling to win the tournament. Please view it to show some support to the malaysian team. Thank you

I think it'll be awesome for all Dota fans. Some of us find it hard to watch it online and this idea of streaming it through Astro is a good one. I would love to just sit back on my cosy sofa with good company, supporting my favourite team and a bowl full of popcorn .

We all could watch Sea Games 2015, because Malaysia was in it. But why not E-Sports, which is Dota2 and 5 of our country players participating in it? We all should give priorities to those who are competing in international level in any kind of competition. So, WHY NOT?

It is a big competition where whole world of people who like gaming and do have a computer or affordable for astro will be willing to watch...which likely to be like NBA playoff....i believe where your audience will increase in a lumsump when TI is available in astro

It will be a bad choice for not letting Astro to play TI5, live tournament through out Malaysia. There are some too who do not have stable and fast internet connection and now could have another alternative to watch their favorite e-sport tournament on Astro.
