Elephant qualified first through the TI10 China Regional Qualifiers. Two-time TI runner-up fy will once again have a shot at the Aegis, along with other runners-up Super and Somnus. The results of the China Qualifiers are just as expected, given that Elephant has the most DPC points compared to the other teams in the qualifiers. It wasn't easy, though, as Elephant had to bounce back from being defeated in the upper bracket finals and get revenge against EHOME in the Grand Finals.
On to the west, the TI10 Western Europe Regional Qualifiers had a similar ending. Tundra Esports sent OG to the lower bracket to face Team Nigma in a TI9 Grand Finals rematch matchup. OG eliminated Team Nigma to break KuroKy's perfect TI streak, leaving Team Secret's Puppey to be the remaining Dota 2 pro player to attend all The International main events. OG then used their momentum to eliminate Tundra Esports in the Grand Finals and snatch the plane tickets to Romania from their hands.
With the two final teams joining the list of eighteen, we now have the complete slate of competitors for TI10. The International 10 will be held in the Arena Nationala in Bucharest, Romania. The TI10 Group Stages will run from October 7-10, with the playoffs kicking off on October 12, 2021. The TI10 champions will be crowned at the Grand Finals on October 17, 2021.
