NEXT.kz

NEXT.kz is an entertainment organization based in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Dota
NEXT.kz first appeared in ASUS Summer 2011, where they went undefeated until the finals, defeating The Retry along the way. However, they could only place 2nd after losing to Natus Vincere in the finals. They also attended ESWC 2011, and InsideDOTA Invitational, placing 2nd in the latter one. Despite good results, the consideration that having a professional Dota 2 team wouldn't help in terms of the popularity of their gaming centres have resulted in the initial decision to drop the team, which eventually didn't happen.
