2024’s The International Qualifiers have already solidified several teams’ spots and all the invited teams have been announced. So, who is actually going?
The last TI was quite rough for Dota fans as it saw its prize pool at an all-time low at just $3.3 million, in comparison to its previous mouth-watering amounts.
However, it still saw an epic Grand Finals, pitting the back-to-back-to-back major winners of Gaimin Gladiators versus a Team Spirit looking to recapture their 2021 glory days.
2024’s DPC season may not have been the greatest, with no Majors this year, but The International is still as important as ever, with teams worldwide vying to lift the Aegis.
In the 13 iteration of The International, only 16 teams will be playing – a reduction from previous years. Six teams will be invited based on their performance throughout the year, and a further 10 will be eligible from the Regional Qualifiers.
Here is how the 10 slots have been divided: China, South America, Southeast Asia, and Western Europe’s qualifiers will each get two slots. Eastern Europe and North America will each get one slot.
The defending champions are Team Spirit, who have qualified by invite and are looking to obtain a third Aegis – the first in Dota history. However, the entire season so far has been dominated by Team Falcons, who have been making waves across the esports scene by signing superteams in various games.
In Dota 2 it’s no different, with a superteam consisting of the likes of Malr1ne, Sneyking, Cr1t-, and skiter, they have dominated the season, winning most of the tournaments so far this year.
