Frankfurt Major 2015 is the first event of Valve's Dota Major Championships, and the main event is held in Festhalle Messe, Frankfurt. I took this golden opportunity to travel to Frankfurt to watch my favourite game live.
The Festhalle Messe is not far from Frankfurt Am Main Hauptbahnhof (Main Station), I arrived at my destination after a short 15 minutes walk.
After passing the security check, one can purchase DOTA 2 merchandises from the not-so-"Secret Shop" before entering the main event area.
Lina and Windranger shopping for items...
Some avid fans of DOTA 2 cosplaying as various heroes such as Sniper, Rogue Knight, Lina and Crystal Maiden. I also spotted Windranger and Elder Titan.
Signing session - Someone even brought a large gaming mat imprinted with the map of DOTA to be autographed!
Last but not least, the main event area! Fortunately, it was not crowded that day so I could get a good view while seated closer to the stage. Some pictures of LGD Gaming vs EHOME...
Lovely ladies of ice and fire watching the game too :)
Overall, it was an exciting and refreshing experience to spectate a live DOTA match. The crowd cheered and applauded after every great teamfight. Looking forward to more game conventions and tournaments in Germany!
