It was stated that WCG intended to have LoL played back in 2012 but went against it due to a schedule conflict between the WCG grand final and the second season of the LoL World Championship.
The official reason for the dropping of Dota 2 this year was not disclosed. However, a reliable insider who does not wish to be named told GosuGamers that the reason for the dropping of Dota 2 is due to an agreement made by Tencent (Company owning Riot) and NeoTV, host of WCG, to not have Dota 2 wherever LoL is present.
