Dota Pit Minor Returns to the 2019-20 Dota Pro Circuit
One Game Agency’s flagship event, the Dota Pit Minor, is back in the 2019-20 Dota Pro Circuit. This is the eighth edition of the event and the third time it has been a DPC Minor.
The Dota Pit Minor will be held at the Spaladium Arena in Split, Croatia from April 23 to 26. It will serve as a prelude to the EPICENTER Major, which begins on May 2.
Competition Details
Eight professional Dota 2 teams will compete in the Dota Pit Minor for a prize pool of $300,000 and 660 DPC points. The regional qualifiers for the Minor will take place on April 2 and 3. Under Valve’s new qualifier rules, the qualifiers will follow the Major qualifiers and feature the top teams that did not directly qualify for the Major.
The competition format for the Dota Pit Minor follows the same structure as the other Minors this season. The eight teams will be split into two GSL groups, with the bottom four teams being eliminated. The remaining four teams will then advance to the upper bracket of the playoffs and compete in best-of-three matches until the grand finals, which will be a best-of-five.
