The road to the $ 40 million starts for TNC Predator and other Filipino Dota 2 teams, as Romanian organizer PGL announced the invited teams for the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) – Southeast Asia region.
On New Year’s Day, the game developer Valve announced its plans for the DPC 2021 and explained the implementation of regional leagues, which led to a major tournament with 18 teams at the end of the two seasons.
As previously announced, the teams compete in six-week regional leagues, divided into upper and lower divisions, with the top finishers of the former receiving a place in the major.
With multiple teams making changes to the roster over the course of the year, Valve did not use the DPC points from the previous season, but instead invited teams in terms of form.
TNC received a direct invitation to compete in the top division of the SEA Regional League together with Fnatic, BOOM Esports and T1.
Other PH squads in Execration, Smart Omega, Vice Esports, Cignal UItra, and Neon Esports have been invited to participate in the closed qualification, in which the top four teams occupy the remaining places in the top division.
The bottom four will take on the open qualification winners for the eight slots in the lower division.
By the end of the Regional League, the two lower teams in the upper division will be relegated to the lower division, while the two upper teams in the lower division will be promoted to the upper division.
The bottom two in the lower league are eliminated and open qualifying games determine the two teams that will occupy the vacant places in the next season.
For the SEA region, the three best players in the upper division qualify for the major.
The same system of promotion and relegation applies to the regions of Europe, CIS, China, North America and South America.
TI10, which has been postponed to 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, will continue to take place in Stockholm, Sweden in August.
Despite the devastating effects of the coronavirus chaos, TI10 posted the largest prize pool in esports history, beating TI9’s $ 34 million wallet.
