ESL One Released schedule and bracket

ESL One Frankfurt is merely days away from its inception and as anticipated the organizers have released information regarding the schedule and bracket with a slight twist.


In roughly over 10 days, ESL One will be hosts to one of the biggest Dota 2 tournaments in the competitive history at Commerzbank Arena in Frankfurt, Germany. The IEM styled tournament is the first step from Electronic Sports League to dedicate a specialized tournament solely for Dota 2.

Today, the management has released important details pertaining to the schedule and bracket of the event. Quite surprisingly, ESL One has opted for a single elimination tournament structure as opposed to the traditionally accepted double elimination format by other events.

That being said, there will be no second chances as the losing team will be eliminated directly from the competition. The matches will be held in a best-of-three fashion up and until the grand finals which will be a best-of-five series. This makes the two day event even more scary as well as exciting, since half of the teams will end up being eliminated on the first day itself.

Prizepool distribution:


  • 1st place: 40% (US$60,000 + 40% community funding)
  • 2nd place: 20% (US$30,000 + 20% community funding)
  • 3rd/4th place: 10% (US$15,000 + 10% community funding)
  • 5th to 8th place: 5% (US$7,500 + 5% community funding)

Mousesports will kick off the competition against Invictus Gaming on its home turf. Besides, an additional bonus will also be awarded to the attendees as they will be able to try out Turtle Rock Studios’ new game Evolve as well as get their hands on Gaijin Entertainment’s War Thunder.
