Following on from last year’s successful Dota2 Challenge at EGX, we’re pleased to confirm that epic.LAN will be hosting an even bigger tournament in the build up to this September’s main event. 

Four teams will once again have the opportunity to face off at the UK’s biggest games event in Birmingham by competing in a series of monthly online heats between now and August. The winning teams from each heat will earn EGX Super Passes, giving access to all 4 days of the show to experience that everything EGX has to offer, with the Dota2 grand finals taking place on Sunday 27th September for even more prizes. 

In addition, the winning team from this July’s epic.FIFTEEN LAN event in Kettering, will qualify straight through to the EGX finals to join the winners of the monthly heats. 

To sign up for the first of the monthly heats, head over to egx2015.epiclan.net to create your team. 

Details

Matches will take place on the following evenings from 7pm with a maximum of 32 teams available for each date in a single-elimination format.

• Tuesday 30th June
• Tuesday 28th July
• Tuesday 18th August

Entries are available to teams made up of a majority (4/5) of UK & Ireland players.

Teams can enter each of the following month’s heats if they are unsuccessful, once a team or individual has qualified they may take no further part in the qualifiers to allow other teams a chance.

Heat prizes are for entry in to EGX only and are non-transferable, any accommodation or travel costs are to be picked up by the team.

Up to 7 players can be entered on to the team’s roster. Winning teams attending EGX must be made up of participants who have played in at least one match in the team’s qualifying tournament.
