ImageThe largest Dota league is once again kicking off, with four additional teams participating in division one!



Division one now consists of 12 teams, rather than the previous eight, so lets get straight to it and name the participating teams:

"- Wicked e-Sports
- diamondZ e. V.
- Kingsurf International
- Mom equals toilet
- Meet Your Makers.DotA
- eSuba.HAL3000
- SHOP2SHOP
- Serious Gaming
- SK-Gaming
- I Got Game
- Xeo Divine .DotA
- D-Link PGS"

The prize money for division one now stands at a respectable 1000€, a reasonable prize pool for a Dota league. As expected Dota-League have also opted to use the newly released Dota map, 6.59c.

The major rule changes that have been made include:

-1.0 The current map for playoff games is 6.59c.
-1.1 The mode will be –cm.
-1.2a Every week you must play one match. One match is two games, one game you will play as the sentinel and the other you will play as the scourge. Sentinel always starts the pick/ban process and should use the command -cm1. Divisions 1 and 2 only play one game per match.


With 12 great teams and a brand new map we can expect a lot of closely fought games, including many new strategies being put into play, making use of the various gameplay and hero changes that have been made!

The recent success of the Dota Masters provides posistive vibes going into Season XI, and on-lookers can only say that things are improving for the Dota scene!

For further information, and the full set of rules head on over to Dota-League.

As for now, stay tuned to SK for updates regarding division one!
