Red Bull Heroicks is a new tournament being hosted by Red Bull this year. Four teams will be invited and one German team will qualify to compete in the unique tournament being held at Castle Rastatt in Germany, between September 17th-18th. Virtus.Pro, OG and Alliance have already confirmed their participation in the event.
Red Bull has announced a new tournament being held between September 17th-18th: Red Bull Heroicks.
Four top international teams and one qualified German team will compete at the 300-year-old Castle Rastatt in Germany, in front of 5,000 fans.
The event will feature a new tournament mode, similar to last year’s Red Bull Battle Grounds. Each of the five participating teams starts with three lives. When a team has lost all three lives, they’re eliminated from the tournament.
To make things even more interesting, the format has a twist this year. The winner of the match will choose the next two teams to compete and the new Hero Challenge allows the audience to select two heroes that can not be banned each game.

(868 comments)They have a big chance at winning it, but it’s not just an OG lan… It’s a small tournament with big names

(868 comments)They are the strongest team in Dota right now, you really expected them not to get invited? Everyone wants OG in their tournaments, especially the new ones, and Red bull has the $$$

(868 comments)Btw, the tournament is after TI, so it doesn’t affect them winning TI in any sense
