The PinkFae Dota 2 League is a league for the top female gamers to break out into the professional scene and network with other female gamers and teams. Last year’s Female 1v1 Tournament was very successful, with fifteen players participating. We hope to have even more players participate in the 2016 Female 1v1 Tournament. Players will play for a prize pot of $500 in a single elimination tournament.
Format
Players will play a 1v1 mid Swiss-style tournament with the number of games determined by the number of players. The top sixty-four players will be seeded in a bracket-style tournament. The games will be a 1v1 mid, best of three to advance to the next round. The semi-finals and the final will be a best of five.
