Berlin-based esports and betting data platform GRID Esports announced Thursday that it has partnered with Chinese tournament organizer Clavision to manage live data for an upcoming Dota 2 competition in the region.
Financial terms and duration of this new partnership were not disclosed.
Specifically, GRID will work with Calvision to manage live data capture for Clavision’s DOTA2 Masters 2025: Snow-Ruyi, arguably one of the largest Dota 2 esports tournaments in Asia. The event will take place July 28 – Aug. 3, at the Bao’an Indoor Stadium in Zhangjiakou, China.
The event will feature top international teams including Tundra Esports, Nigma Galaxy, BetBoom, Parivision, and Gaimin Gladiators, among others, who will compete before a live audience for a piece of the $700,000 USD total prize pool.
GRID has also been named the exclusive data distribution partner for the Snow-Ruyi event, “supplying official in-game data in real-time for live broadcasts, media coverage, and other fan-facing destinations,” according to the announcement.
“GRID ensures that every moment of Snow-Ruyi is captured, shared, and elevated—from the live competition to the content, stats, and stories surrounding the tournament,” said Cloud Guo, CEO and founder at Clavision. “Data plays a crucial role in how fans watch and experience esports today, and GRID is continuously innovating and setting that standard across the industry.”
GRID serves as the official data platform for League of Legends, Valorant, Rainbow Six Siege, and PUBG and is a prominent data partner within the Counter-Strike 2 and Dota 2 esports ecosystems.
