Announcing the Red Bull River Runes – A 1 vs 1 Indian Dota 2 tournament where Players will have the opportunity to prove themselves over a month-long, tournament with various offline and online qualifiers for an opportunity to compete in the Grand Finals. The winner of the Grand Finals will win a trip to the upcoming ESL One: Genting tournament held in Malaysia.
River runes is a unique custom game mode, in which this event will be played on. Unlike traditional 1v1 game modes, both heroes will start off in the Mid Lane with 3 Items: Blink Dagger, Bottle, and an Observer Ward. The heroes will also start off at Level 6, making it such that their ultimates will be available right from the get-go.
The competitors are also given a random item at 5 and 10 minutes, and a Divine Rapier is dropped at each of their towers at 15 Minutes.
The objective, however, remains the same as traditional 1v1 tournaments. Kill the enemy twice or kill off their Tier 1 Tower.
