The RaidCall EMS One consists of four seasons every year. Each season offers a prize pot of 39,000$ and is divided into three stages: 4 Cups, Group Stage and Live Event Finals. While some of the cup participants are seeded, everybody has the chance to qualify for a cup by playing in the Dota 2 A-Series.



Also, we have listened to the feedback of our American fans. We came up with the idea to adjust our model to offer the American teams a way to take part as well. The focus of our competition will remain in Europe though, but we will present a more sophisticated model to include teams from other continents for future seasons. Teams from Europe and North America will compete with each other in the A-Series. However, teams from outside of Europe are not eligible for the cups. Instead, the highest ranked North American teams on March 11th qualify to the group stage where they compete with Europe's elite.
