Valve is pulling official backing from a Dota 2 tournament in the Philippines due to new government regulations on drug testing.
The Dota Team made the announcement, stating that they believe the new regulations are an unreasonable infringement on the privacy of players. Full details are available on the official Dota 2 blog.
The new policies require players to be subjected to drug testing and screening in order to enter the country to participate in the tournament, according to Kotaku. Specific drugs being tested for include marijuana and crystal meth.
