Held at the SpaladiumArena in Split, Croatia, the Dota PIT Minor is thefirst such event to be held un front of a live crowd whereas all other Minorsso far have bene held privately and broadcast via streams.

There will be quite a bit of Dota 2 to enjoy with the 8participating teams all being part of the game’s global elite and therefore makingfor a spectacular show.

Format & Schedule

The PIT Minorwill kick off with a group stage held from April22 – April 24. There will be twogroups with four teams in each. Each game will be played in the Best of 3 (BO3)and it will lead to the next stage, which will feature double-eliminationbracket.

Once the teams hit the playoffs, they will be split into twobrackets – an upper bracket where BO3 games will be held and a lower bracket where teams will play in BO1 matches to move forward. This is arefresh from the traditional GSL wayof running groups so far.

One minor issue that we might have is with the lower bracketBO1 in the playoffs when the stakes are significantly higher and therefore thegames far more entertaining to watch. Come April 27, only 5 teams will bestanding and they will start battling it out in another BO1 series.

Teams

Looking at the participating teams, we can definitely expectto see some high-profile Data. Of course, it’s true that the majority of theseteams have known their lows, but their names still inspire admiration. Nearly,all teams on the rosters have shown us some exceptional plays.

Forward Gaming are probably not going to still the thunder inthis competition, but there are many, such as Ninjas in Pyjamas, Alliance,EHOME and even Royal Never Give Up that might do.

If we had to choose sides, we would definitely have tonarrow down the choice of winners of this Minor to four teams:

Ninjas inPyjamasGambitEsportsAllianceEHOME

Gambit Esports might just have a smaller edge over Ninjas inPyjamas which have been experiencing some trouble this season, although keepingthemselves abreast with all the rest of the competitors.
