The Dota Pro Circuit is back in 2023, and the DPC SA 2023 Tour 1 Division 1 is a must-watch.
South American Dota surged forth to become one of the most exciting regions last year. Thunder Awaken and beastcoast — the same ten players now in different configurations onEvil Geniusesandbeastcoast— both finished in the top eight of The International 11.
The then-Thunder Awaken roster also became the first-ever SA team to break into the top six at a TI event.

Format of DPC SA 2023 Tour 1 Division 1
All eight teams in the Regional League will periodically play each other in a round-robin best-of-three.
Tiebreakers will only be played if it affects qualification — for Majors and relegation. A two-way tie will trigger a best-of-three tiebreaker. If there are more than two teams tied, the tiebreaker will be a best-of-one instead.
The top two teams qualify for the first Major of the season.
