SAP will continue its support for ESL Dota 2 events as Official Analytics Partner for ESL One Birmingham. The competition will be played online only due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, with regional online leagues from May to June, and a total prize pool of $335K USD split across all regions.
As in previous years, SAP technology will offer insights on players’ and teams’ in-game performances, which now includes KPI records, item timings and records, lineup characteristics, historical win probabilities and net worth progression graphs. Financial terms were not disclosed.
“Together, we have digested the feedback we received from our previous collaborations and developed new types of overlays and graphics in order to make each game even more exciting and interesting to fans,” said Milan Cerny, Director of Strategic Partnerships at SAP.
