In March, a great deal of Dota2 tournaments are going to be held but some of them deserve special attention. StarLadder ImbaTV Dota 2 Minor Season 3 and ESL One Los Angeles Major 2020 will gather only the best rosters at their event and they are going to fight for a considerable prize pool. Betters are not to pass by the other tournaments, however, these two tournaments are the main goal of Top teams throughout the world.
StarLadder ImbaTV Dota 2 Minor Season 3
The event will be held on 5-8 May in 2020 in Kyiv. The prize pool of the tournament consists of $300.000 and eight teams will be fighting for it. The teams are:
- Gambit Esports (CIS),
- forZe eSports (CIS),
- Fighting PandaS (North America),
- Alliance (Europe),
- Team Aster (Chinese region),
- BOOM Esports (North Asia),
- NoPing e-sports (South America),
- business associates (North America),
The prize pool of the tournament consists of 300.000 dollars and 72.000 of the sum will be gained by the winners. Initially, the teams are divided into two groups with four teams in each. Three rosters from them will make it to the next stage.
The teams that will take the first two places in the group will pass to the winners’ bracket while the contestants from the third place in the group will be playing in the losers’ bracket. The following matches will be held in the bo3 format, the final match will be played in the BO-5 format which is supposed to make the tournament more spectacular and to attract an additional audience.
In fact, this tournament has two-three favorites that are to pass the group stage and the first matches of the playoff easily. These are the three teams:
- Gambit Esports (CIS),
- Alliance (Europe),
- Team Aster (Chinese region),
They show a rather good game in this patch and we can also observe a great collaboration of the members of the team. They surpassed everybody in their roster and these regions are usually the best in the DOTA2 world.
ESL One Los Angeles Major 2020
This tournament will be held in Los Angeles, America on 15-22 March 2020. The prize pool of the tournament is considerable, which is 1.000.000$ and 300.000$ out of the sum will be taken by the winners of the tournament. But this is not the most important, as we should pay attention to the fact that the contestant will be fighting for DPC points that can guarantee participation in the main tournament of the year, The International 2020. The winner of the tournament will gain 4.850 points. The victory and points are going to be competed for by:
- Team Secret (Europe),
- OG (Europe),
- Ninjas in Pyjamas (Europe),
- Invictus Gaming (China),
- Royal Never Give Up (China),
- EHOME (Cina),
- Fnatic (Southeast Asia),
- Geek Fam (Southeast Asia),
- Team Adroit (Southeast Asia),
- Natus Vincere (CIS),
- Virtus.pro (CIS),
- Evil Geniuses (North America),
- Chaos Esports Club (North America),
- Thunder Predator (South America),
- beastcoast (South America),
- the last participant will be defined at StarLadder ImbaTV Dota 2 Minor Season 3
One way or another, both tournaments are going to show us spectacular Dota which is interesting to watch and possible to make predictions about. The division of the prize pool is not so important as the number of points they are going to get for participating in the main tournament of the year. Anyway, we are to see unforeknown battles where the teams are not going to give up before the throne falls, and also unbelievable comebacks, and different emotions from players and spectators of the tournament.
Do you want to enjoy a beautiful game performed by the best teams in the world? Them you should not miss these tournaments!
