NEW YORK, August 21 - Seemingly in the wake of the incredibly record breaking viewership of Valve's Dota 2 tournament, The International 3, MLG has announced that the MOBA will be featured for the first time on MLG Pro Circuit in Columbus, Ohio this November, as reported by GameSpot.
Dota 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops II will also be featured at MLG Fall Invitational at video game development college, Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida on October 18 and 19. The winner of the $30,000 prize pool competition will receive an invite to compete in Columbus, confirmed MLG executive VP Adam Apicella.
StarCraft 2 remains absent from the least, an announcement made shortly after MLG split from producing StarCraft II World Championship Series (WCS) content for Blizzard. Riot Games' enormously popular League of Legends has yet to be announced for Columbus either, the MOBA was featured during MLG Anaheim this past summer however.
