We can safely say that Tundra Esports was one of the best Dota 2 teams of 2025. Following several successful events in 2025, the team also won the BLAST Slam 5 after defeating Team Yandex. Here is everything that happened.
Tundra and Team Yandex’s Journey
Tundra Esports was one of the BLAST Slam V favorites, so we can’t say we are surprised by the result. As expected, the team had little to no issues in the Group Stage and it finished with 10 victories and just one loss. Tundra only lost a map against Team Falcons, TI 2025’s winners.
Tundra’s impressive results allowed the squad to secure a slot for the Playoff Semifinals. As expected, the squad faced MOUZ, but the series turned out to be way more one-sided than we expected. Instead of a back-and-forth match, Tundra was on another level and the team won two quick maps. This is how the squad secured a slot for the Grand Final.
As expected, Team Yandex’s journey was not as easy as Tundra’s. The team surprised everyone by surviving the Group Stage, but it barely made it out after getting 6 wins and 5 losses.
Yandex had a mountain to climb after the Group Stage because the team faced OG. It was one of those games that could have gone either way, but Yandex showed determination and eliminated their opponents.
This victory put the team against its biggest challenge yet in the face of Team Falcons. No one expected TF to lose, but Yandex was clearly better and swept through the TI14 champions like a knife through butter. This allowed the team to face Tundra Esports in the Grand Final.
The Final
Even though Yandex kept surprising everyone with their results, they did not have the power to bring down one of the most successful Dota 2 teams of 2025.
The first two games were definitely close, but Tundra succeeded in both. Game 1 was particularly interesting because the teams were neck and neck.
After securing a two-game lead, Tundra had the needed motivation for game 3. This was the most one-sided match in the series and after that, Tundra won the event.
The 2025 Results
This was Tundra Esports’s 5th trophy in 2025, and the team pretty much cemented itself as one of the best. A quick look at the results shows that the team won the following:
- FISSURE PLAYGROUND 1
- BLAST Slam II
- BLAST Slam III
- BLAST Slam IV
- BLAST Slam V
It will be interesting to see if 2026 will be as successful for the team as 2025. Make sure to follow us for more details.
