Team Spirit were not supposed to be at The International.
TI is the one of the most prestigious tournaments in esports, where history has been made time and time again.
But at TI10 - the first International in two years - the Russian underdogs did more than just make history.
They did the impossible, and became the new gods of Dota 2.

There are a lot of things in this run. The 3-2 comeback to qualify, the beginning with that awful room, the bad starting in the group stage, winning all the games the next days, getting into the upper bracket and getting destroyed by IG(even the game that they won, IG throw), going to lower bracket, beating fnatic and have to face OG, the kings of ti who has lost only one series since ti8 group stage if I'm not mistaken, but Collapse's Magnus and the EZ GAME comes so ez series indeed, later facing VP who team spirit literally has never beating before, play again against IG getting revenge for that upper bracket match, have to face the best Eu team so far, team secret, and doing it in style to get into the Grand finals against the absolutely favourites and undefeated so far PSG LGD, winning easy the first two games, but getting destroyed the next two, and when you think that LGD has the momentum and their best and undefeated strat in tiny+lycan, Spirit comes with Collapse's Magnus again, this time uncountered, and wins the game. Absolutely insane run, without any chances to be called a fluke. Men, everyone was just out of their mind, Collapse's Magnus, Yatoro's rampages and hero pool, Torontotokyo's game sense (dude, the way this guy constantly evades ganks even with smokes that makes a lot of space), and Mira and Miposhka vision game and rotations. I'm just hoping that this team doesn't lose any motivation to keep playing in the following tournaments.

Team Spirit's lower bracket run is insane. - They beat Fnatic. That team may not be the best SEA team, but it had more experience than Team Spirit. - They clapped 2x TI champions OG, who kept 3/5 of their championship roster, and the replacements for those who retired are a TI champion and a TI runner up. "ez game" indeed. - They beat Virtus Pro, who have been their bane at the CIS region. - They beat Invictus Gaming, who defeated them in upper bracket. - They beat Secret, a superstar European team with some TI winners who knocked down OG. - Then they beat PSG.LGD, who also have TI winners and runner up in their roster, just a few hours after beating Secret. Team Spirit played 8 games that day. Along the way they beat the Tiny+Lycan combo done against them multiple times. PSG.LGD was undefeated with that combo, and it wouldn't be a stretch if Secret can make that work against Spirit because of how gifted their players are. I love OG's TI runs, but Team Spirit had a much better run Dota-wise.

GGs Team Spirit. I haven't played Dota in a long time since I mainly play League but I love the underdog stories we've been getting from TI these past couple of years.

@LanceVanceDance214 2 жыл бұрын

What I like about Dota and TI is it's unpredictability. Anyone can win unlike other tournaments where you can almost predict who will be in the grand finals at the start of the tournament.

@kodoxlucu 2 жыл бұрын

To be honest, most of us predicted PSG LGD will be in the final, that's what make the underdog story so satisfying, the most predictable vs the most unpredictable

They already proven with Xinq rubick they can counter the mag but in game 5 Mira literally became the Kuroko to Collapse Magnus he protected Collapse from any sorts of counter that he can just do his horn toss skewer combo without an issue. Mira deserves a lot more recognition in that game 5 he's sticking to Collapse and protecting that dude from almost everything.

@Somm_RJ 2 жыл бұрын

@@I3ULL5HIT Can it be just 1 game they have beaten it? I don't know, I have not played Dota for a long time, just watching it in tournaments nowadays. Maybe Rubick is for the RP, like Rubick for Enigma's BH? But Mag's threat is his skewer more that about his RP. Does not matter really, PSG thought they can deal with it then they probably had a plan, just did not materialize.

I like how Team Spirit's opponents in the lower bracket actually progressively gets stronger like an actual anime arc. -) Fnatic (SEA qualifier winner, and the qualifier itself is really competitive in that region) -) Fucking OG -) VP (Who actually looks really strong this year) -) IG (The one that knocks Team Spirit down to lower brackets) -) Team Secret (Arguably the strongest Western EU team in that tournament) -) PSG.LGD (Before the grand finals, they played 23 games, and they only lost TWICE. In the grand finals, they even destroyed Spirit in game 3 and 4 after finding a counter to Collapse's Magnus.)
