To be eligible for a "best average finish" invite to Riyadh Masters, teams needed to be invited to both DreamLeagues.
PSG.LGD and Execration were both invited and accepted their invite to play in DreamLeague Season 19 and 20, but as they were unable to attend one of each season due to visa issues beyond their control, they remained eligible to qualify through the average placement of the season that they participated in.
BetBoom Team and Team Nigma would be unable to qualify this way, as they were only invited to participate in one of the two DreamLeague season.
Due to visa issues, Execration are unable to join us for DreamLeague Season 20.
With Execrations visa issues the short time frame won't allow us to invite a replacement team from SEA due to the visa application process.
In selecting between the two regions from which we could field a last minute team, Eastern Europe was ahead of Western Europe for the next slot, and Betboom were the next eligible team from EEU to be invited.
In the event that Gaimin Gladiators place in the top 2, while having already qualified from their victory in Season 19, the teams invited from average DreamLeague placements would increase from 5 to 6, and there would only be one team that directly qualifies from Season 20 to Riyadh Masters.
In the results from the major for example, discounting the best team from each region, the only region with multiple teams in the Top 8 is WEU.
The closest region to getting the slot over WEU having a 4th additional was EEU, but WEU still came out ahead for the final slot. Currently, every other region isn't close.
As non-top teams from other regions haven't consistently won games of dota against quality opposition in other regions, our system won't allocate invite slots for these regions.
With the ESL Pro Tour for Dota 2 we want to complement Valve’s DPC ecosystem while supporting the Dota 2 scene and helping it grow.

Although it's something we would have liked to include, there will be no qualifiers for events in the first EPT Season.
