I've been trying to find media which would be appropriate to add to this article, but unsurprisingly, most of it is not free content and cannot be used. One alternative is quoting the official tweets announcing winners. This seems appropriate to me since Valve runs these accounts, and they can be considered equivalent to announcements of a sports governing body or a peak body when it comes to Dota 2 esports.
Examples of what it might look like are to the right. What do you think? Any input is appreciated. Melmann 11:29, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's misleading to use a fake fan created logo derivative to represent official statements and games. Please don't do so. I've also reverted your change to the image at Dota 2. -- ferret (talk) 12:37, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ferret: It's a reasonably accurate re-creation of the logo, in my opinion. But I'll take on your feedback. In any case, I'm not insisting on this particular image or any image at all, if the tweets were to be included any other image, or no image, could be used. Melmann 13:20, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Melmann, embedded tweets would just be glorified citations right? ~ Dissident93 (talk) 18:00, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Essentially. Perhaps a quotation/citation? I think the article could use an image or media, but that's hard to come by. Tweets might serve a similar purpose to contribute towards the topic. Only other alternative that comes to mind is perhaps including a game screenshot of ana's Io from one of the TI 2019's games. Perhaps that could be justified under non-free rationale, similarly to how File:Dota 2 Gameplay Aug 2017.jpg is used in the article Dota 2. Melmann 18:30, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
