ESL Pro Tour - Warcraft III Updates for Fall Season
- September 10, 2020
- WC3
The ESL Pro Tour for Warcraft III is set to continue September 12th with qualifiers as we head towards the WC3 Championship for 2021. We looked at feedback from fans regarding our inaugural online season for Summer and have updates ahead of our scheduled start for the Fall kick-off.
Point Distribution
We've been monitoring our seasonal point allocations and concluded that due to the change to more online seasons following DreamHack Warcraft 3 Open: Anaheim, we would like to distribute EPT points for the following seasons in a way that would allow those not present at Anaheim to remain competitive. We have adjusted the point values for the upcoming Fall and Winter seasons to help keep all players on a level playing field.
You can find the updated amounts in our rulebook now.
