After two months of competition, the RaidCall EMS One Spring Season in DotA2 will come to an end on April 21th in Katowice (Poland) with the best eight remaining teams. These eight teams will vie for 35,000 US Dollars in a simple single elimination playoff system in the prestigious four star angelo Hotel in Katowice.
On April 20th at 11:00 CET, the broadcast of the RaidCall EMS One Spring DotA2 will commence on ESL TV, supported by Twitch.tv, the global leading streaming platform for gamers. These best eight teams have had a hard time qualifying for the live event finals. The tournament was open for everybody and hundreds of teams fought to qualify for this brand new premier gaming competition.
The RaidCall EMS One had four weekly online cups where teams had to gather enough points to move on to the second phase, the group stage. Sixteen of Europe's and North America's best successfully made it into the group stage and were divided into four pools. In a classic Round Robin format, the teams of five played each other and the best two qualified for the live event finals in Katowice (Poland). And now, one of them will be crowned the European Champion.
