Upon earning points in a 2015 MLG Pro Points competition, players will be added to the system. The competition doesn't necessarily have to be one of MLG's own, as tournaments run by other prominent organisations will be implemented in the points system. Based on their location, players are able to earn more points by participating in tournaments specific to a region, whether they play in an online or offline tournament, or a league match.In order to compare teams and players from different regions on a fair basis, an exchange rate will be set for each region, which will be based upon the number and value of Pro Points Tournaments and League Matches that have occurred in each at the time of seeding. Players are able to switch regions, however doing so will result in a forfeit of all the pro points that are specific to it.MLG have quite a bit of experience with this system, as it is currently used in a similar form to rate players in the popular shooter. They now hope to have similar success with it in Dota2:January 21st to TBA -Dota Pit League Season 3 - 10,000 SeriesJanuary 24th to March 21st -joinDOTA MLG Pro League - Season 1 Round RobinJanuary 29th to February 9th -Dota 2 Asia Championships - 25,000 SeriesApril 10th to April 12th -joinDOTA MLG Pro League - S1 Championship - 25,000 SeriesMarch 28th to April 4th -joinDOTA MLG Pro League & Division 2 Playoffs - 5,000 SeriesThis article was written byMarkus Fischer, joinDOTA's Elder Writer.
