ESWC Masters trusts old version
The ESWC announced that the Warcraft 3 and DotA matches of the ESWC Masters tournament will be played with the old version, patch 1.21. They base their decision on the fact that the players will not have enough time to get accustomed to the patch with its balance changes.
While the patch did not agitate the Warcraft 3 players enormously, the ESWC's decision provided reassurance for the DotA scene. A lot of bugs were generated by the new patch and the developers were not sure if they could fix all of the problems in time.
Now the decision of the ESWC directors will provide a fair tournament process in Paris.

I would've thought that Blizzard would understand that ESWC Masters (considering its one of the biggest e-sports events) was on, and would wait for it to finish before releasing the new patch..

It's funny how "noobs" are blaming, and the "smart part" know it's good thing.
Do not mess.

Rules are clear on this one saying ESWC uses the newest version available 15 days before the tournament start. Now why would they be using 1.21? It's the best thing for pros since every one of them should just check the rules in case he didn't know what the version would be. Maybe not for viewers, but well... can't have everything
