The $400,000 Dota 2 event began with 16 teams from Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. It runs through Nov. 1, with the winner earning $150,000.
The teams are competing in a Swiss group stage with five rounds of best-of-three matches. Teams need three victories to secure a spot in the eight-team playoffs, while three losses equal elimination, and teams never play the same opponent twice.
The playoff rounds will be contested in a best-of-three, double-elimination format. The grand final is a best-of-five encounter.
Round 5 in the event is slated for Tuesday.
