New update guys! The event will take place in November this year.
Why did they cancel the DOTA event when it is being played online ? The coronavirus has no effect on online games and they should not
be called off. We already have very less sports left and if online sporting event get cancelled, then there will be left no entertainment with respect to sports.

This depends. As far as I know, majors and minors are usually done on LAN. It doesn't mean that a game is an online game, it also means that it would be played by the team at their team houses or certain places. They are invited to attend these events in different countries, they are also affected badly by this pandemic. Dota2 has a charity event online now though for the pandemic.
I hope ESL major won’t be cancelled.

I wanted to buy a live ticket for one of the next ESL majors, but unfortunately I don't see that happening anymore. Anyone got some infos?
As per the players of Brazil, the event is going to be cancelled. There is no way any country will allow people from different nations and do a gathering. It is better to stay home and watch online.Oh yea, you are right. With the recent travel bans, there is no way that players will be able to travel to different locations. Let's see if the ESL will reschedule the tournaments or if they will be played online.

Is that gonna be an issue? Wireless and LAN gameplay are very different but when it comes to the tournament, all of the equipment is high-end and an internet connection was very fast where movements are very accurate and have a delay of almost microseconds.
Online tournaments are frequently implemented now due to fast ISPs, I don't think it has a huge difference between wireless and LAN since technology is advancing too.
Even here in a third world country, internet connection issue is not a thing since ISP provide a quality speed where pro players can play very well and add those advanced devices that make gameplay really good.

I think the reason that th online tournaments are more laggy is because there is no organization that are supervising the tournament thus causing a disruption in games, if it were on the flip side, LAN tournament and it is organized then that means there will be less disruption possible.
I am sure you meant ping or network issues. This is not the case if the server is of same region of the teams. Like NA server and all teams are from NA and same for other regions. The only problem is the diff between 5ms which they play on LAN and 40+ ms.Some known internet cafes here like TNC or Mineski (teams of Dota2) have also small ping even if you're playing in the different servers like we're from SEA while playing on NA. Idk, but I think it depends on what area you're located 'cause sometimes it's very delayed.

There are still ongoing Dota 2 events lately like the Wesave! Charity Play. It's online tournament and it's likely for fun which has a prize of $120,000 and that amount will go totally to a charity to fight Covid-19.
Well, since CS: GO is an FPS Game, having a tournament online is not the best option. Considering the internet speed and the specs of the laptops, LAN is really better than online. Pro players play differently on LAN. I want to explain why. Sometimes, --playing in LAN as a pro player will let you move quicker. And since you are used to quick moves, ONLINE Gaming would give you a headache. Indeed, you might be tilted since your pc moves slow.
It's a hassle if, at the start of the tournament, everything will be done in a single arena. There are big tournaments that qualifying rounds should be done online. Just imagine the number of games players need to play especially for a double-round robin. I'm talking about all tournaments in general and not just those big and major events.
And it's 2020 now. Online connectivity, again, shouldn't be a big issue unlike before that all players must only choose their respective servers based on ISP, etc. Garena, Ranked Gaming, etc.
Well, I also consider betting on live games, why? Because there is more people watching it, meaning to say that more gamblers are also present. Unlike for casual games online, people are mostly just watching.
Well generally, provided odds will surely still be the same whether few or many watch those live games at most of the cases.

Not all the time, most the games today's are focused on online, and as we could observe, they are just executing the game live and with all the players in the same event or area just for the crowds to gather around and watch. That is to attract gamers all over the world to buy tickets and watch the game live. Honestly, the Internet of today is fast enough to host online tournaments. Imagine, if there is always an interruption when they play, I don't think they will continue playing.

Connection issues can't be avoided even if there are enough people monitoring the online tournament since it could be on the ISP side but most of the online matches i've watched rarely have any kind of connection issue. And when players do have issues it doesn't last for more than several minutes. Oh yea, you are right. With the recent travel bans, there is no way that players will be able to travel to different locations. Let's see if the ESL will reschedule the tournaments or if they will be played online.
The current ESL Pro League(season 11) is played online similar to their early seasons and the ESL Major seems to be moved to August according to their liquipedia page.

Seems like a number of DOTA majors have already been cancelled according to this article I found through Google, though it does say that there's one remaining major coming up that hasn't been cancelled yet that is in Singapore during June. There's no way to tell what the situation with COVID will be like that far out, but I don't think it'll be over that fast and thus I believe it's only a matter of time 'till that's also cancelled.

Astralis' online results are good enough if we're talking about their qualification matches from last year. Now with their current form slowly regressing after the iem tournament I don't know if they'll maintain their top rank.
It'll affect the results of some teams for sure since a lot of tier 1 teams are used to playing on lan but they could start adapting later on if more tournaments switches to online.
As you can see Astralis lost 0-2 to North Online. All the Tier 1 teams struggle online. It'll affect the results of some teams for sure since a lot of tier 1 teams are used to playing on lan but they could start adapting later on if more tournaments switches to online.
