Perfect World has announced a series of Dota 2 tournaments

Chinese publisher Perfect World, on Twitter, announced a series of 3 tournaments in Dota 2 for local teams.

The first season of the Perfect World League will start on October 28, with 10 teams split into two divisions. The prize pool for each season will be approximately $67,000.

Rosters will earn PWL points, which will feed directly into future PW events, and from Season 2 onward, there will be promotion/relegation. Based on the results, teams that have passed qualifiers will be able to replace the PWL rosters that have left the league. The organizers will promote or demote teams in the league, as well as take away their eligibility for elimination.

The list of PWL participants will be announced later.
