After a successful season one, WePlay is back with the second installment of the WePlay Dota 2 tournament and this time, they are boasting a $25,000 prize pool, a $15,000 increase from the first.
The organizers have invited eight of the finest European teams to participate in the tournament and they will be joined by four more invitees later.

Not much information were given about the format of the tournament nor the prize distribution but we will most possibly see the return of the GSL Groupstage followed by a double elimination playoffs.
