As the Winter Tour of the Dota Pro Circuit 2021-2022 season draws to a close, Dota 2 has made the difficult decision to cancel the first Major. The discovery and spread of new strains of COVID-19 and the resulting increase of travel restrictions has made it unfeasible for all qualified teams to gather for a LAN tournament.
As there will be no major, Tour 1 will conclude after all of the regional league tournaments have ended. Players who have participated in Fantasy will receive their rewards before the start of Tour 2.
Teams participating in the DPC earn points by playing in their respective Regional Leagues as well as through international competition at the Majors. Since the first Major is no longer happening, Dota 2 has decided to redistribute its points to the second and third Major. This way, the balance of points between regional and cross-region play remains the same. The points will be distributed as follows:
Major 2:
| Point | Place |
|---|---|
| 680 | 1st |
| 610 | 2nd |
| 530 | 3rd |
| 460 | 4th |
| 385 | 5th/6th |
| 240 | 7th/8th |
Major 3:
| Point | Place |
|---|---|
| 820 | 1st |
| 740 | 2nd |
| 670 | 3rd |
| 590 | 4th |
| 515 | 5th/6th |
| 360 | 7th/8th |
