Overview of the Main Favorites
The International 2024 Closed Qualifier
Tundra Esports
Dota 2 Team: Tundra Esports
Tundra Esports presented RAMZES666 as an offlaner standing at DreamLeague Season 23 and FISSUREUniverse: Episode 2. In both cases, the team took 5th-6th place. This team is getting in shape and preparing to show their best game at the closed qualifications.
OG
Dota 2 Team: OG
OG, the two-time champions of The International, have to go through the closed qualifiers this time to qualify for this year's main tournament. In recent news, Wisper, the team's offlaner, has reached the 13,000 MMR mark. As a rule, the OG team takes big tournaments very seriously and performs well in them.
Entity
Dota 2 Team: Entity
Entity is a team of extremely talented players. Their Carry, Watson, has consistently held the top spot on the ladder. The team recently underwent a coaching change, with Astini replacing MeTTpuM. Whether this change will help the team secure a slot at TI soon remains to be seen.
Team Secret
Dota 2 Team: Team Secret
Team Secret is currently unpredictable. They are capable of defeating top teams but also of losing to underdogs. Hopefully, Puppey will take matters into his own hands this time and lead his team to earn a spot at The International.
