Kyiv-based tournament organizer, WePlay Esports, will get a shot at its first-ever Valve-sponsored Major tournament, the WePlay AniMajor.
The upcoming Dota 2 tournament will see 18 of the best Dota 2 teams from around the world compete in Kyiv for what's going to be the last Valve-sanctioned Dota 2 tournament before The International 10 in August.
The event will kick off on June 2 with its Wild Card stage followed by the Group Stage on June 4 and the Playoffs that will go from June 9 until June 13.
The event begins on March 27 with the Wild Card stage followed by the Group Stage on the 29th and the Main Event on the 31st, which will run through April 4.
Because this is the last Major of the Dota Pro Circuit 2021, a lot of Dota 2 teams are hoping that they'll get a high placement if not win the tournament. Otherwise, they risk having to go through the qualifiers to secure a lot at The International 10, which is not an ideal scenario.
So, which Dota 2 teams are competing at the WePlay AniMajor? How much is the prize pool? What else is at stake? Scroll down below to find out.
