TI 11 All teams qualified for Dota 2 The International

The International 2022 will be this year's top Dota 2 esports event. These are all The International 2022 teams who qualified for the event.

The International 2022 will be held at the Suntec Convention Center and Singapore Indoor Stadium from October 15, 2022, to October 30, 2022. The event will be the pinnacle of Dota 2 esports this year and will have a minimum of $1,600,000 USD in its prize pool, with community-funded prize winnings added for every 2022 Battle Pass purchase and Battle Pass level purchased. With $40 million last year, The International remains one of the most prestigious esports tournaments in the world.

This year, The International returns and will be held in Southeast Asia for the first time in Dota 2 history. For this year's competition, twelve teams will be qualified through earned DPC Points, with another eight teams entering through regional and last chance qualifiers. So far, here are the teams that have qualified for the Dota 2 The International:

The International 2022 Qualified Teams (Last Chance Qualifiers): Team Liquid | Team Secret

The Arlington Major is the final stop before we head into The International 2022. Only the teams in this tournament have a passing chance at still qualifying for The International through DPC Points. Everyone else have to go through the Regional Qualifiers, and, failing that, through the Last Chance Qualifiers. The second and third placers of each Regional Qualifiers will be playing from October 8 to October 12, 2022, in Singapore on-site for the last two slots of the tournament.

With the Arlington Major eliminating its first set of teams, the top twelve teams of this year's DPC have been locked in. With Fnatic losing to beastcoast, it seemed that Fnatic had been locked out of the TI Qualification contention. However, Valve would issue a clarification that it is actually Fnatic headed to TI, not Outsiders, after re-evaluating all the DPC Points and penalty points.

During the Last Chance Qualifiers, Team Secret defeated Virtus.pro in the upper bracket finals to secure their slot in The International 2022. This would mark the team's captain Puppey's eleventh consecutive appearance in The International Main Stage, an unbroken streak unmatched by anyone. Then, the lower bracket finalist Team Liquid would also defeat Virtus.pro to punch their tickets to The International, barring Virtus.pro completely from competing in The International main stage.

The team distribution based on region is four Western European teams, four Eastern European teams, three Chinese teams, three Southeast Asia teams, three North American teams, and three South American teams, for a total of twenty teams.

The International 11 Format

This year will have a different format compared to the previous The International tournaments. This year, the Group Stages will be played without a crowd. The Group Stages will be played from October 15 to October 18. Twenty teams will be divided into two groups and four teams in each group will be eliminated, leaving twelve teams competing in the playoffs.

The Main Event will also be held at the Suntec Convention Center Singapore from October 20 to October 23. Between October 24 to 28, the teams will be given time to rest, before they head to the Singapore Indoor Stadium for the Finals on October 28 to 29.
