The official Russian broadcasts of the BLAST Slam VI Dota 2 tournament have been blocked on the Twitch platform. We are talking about two channels at once that conducted licensed broadcasts of the competition. Twitch's announcement stated that the sanctions were imposed for violating community rules.
Currently the situation seems ambiguous. It is possible that the block was released by mistake and is temporary – similar cases have occurred on the platform. However, the copyright holder and tournament representative have not yet made an official comment.
BLAST Slam VI's English broadcasts continue to operate normally and without any problems.
BLAST Slam VI takes place online from February 3 to 15 and in Malta. The tournament features 12 teams competing for a prize fund of $1 million.
