Whether they start in the upper or lower bracket, every team have set their eyes on the prize — the lion’s share of a US$500,000 prize pool and Dota Pro Circuit points, and adding a Major trophy to their cabinet.

The ESL One Berlin Major is the second Major of the 2023 Dota Pro Circuit — and the first LAN event on the new Dota 2 7.33 patch.
18 teams from six different regions battle over two weeks to claim the championship and their share of the US$500,000 prize pool. Following the group stage, six teams are eliminated — leaving 12 hoping to leave their mark.
Perhaps more importantly, 2,700 Dota Pro Circuit points are on offer, which can go a long way towards securing qualification for The International 12.
