© Provided by Dot Esports The second season of the 2021 Dota Pro Circuit is about to begin, with regional leagues picking back up with slightly altered rosters of teams and players ready to try and earn a spot in the next Major.
Matches begin on April 12 and will run through May 23, and there is now middle of the season break for China this time, so every region will run on the exact same six week rotation.
In each region, the two top teams from the lower division have been promoted to the upper division. Likewise, the bottom two teams from the upper division are now going to be playing the lower division during season two after being relegated at the end of season one.
Two entirely new rosters are also joining the battle, with two open qualifier teams replacing the bottom finishers from the lower division during season two. So in total, the lower division has two brand new teams, while the bottom and top two from the upper and lower divisions respectively have replaced each other.
At the end of season two, the top four seeds from China and Europe, top three teams from Southeast Asia and CIS, and the top two rosters from North and South America will qualify for the Major.
