Two more slots grabbed during the Dota 2 TI10 Regional Qualifiers. Through the SEA Qualifiers, in goes Fnatic. Likewise, Undying secured theirs through the NA Qualifiers.
It seems like our pattern-seeking methods were unfounded. Undying held their ground and stomped 4 Zoomers' hopes to dust. While 4 Zoomers successfully eliminated bumble bEE's in the lower bracket finals, they failed to win a single map from Undying. Undying came in strong and went 3-0 against 4-Zoomers in matches that lasted less than 45 minutes or so each.
Meanwhile, the upper bracket finals winners also came out victorious over at SEA. TNC was bloodthirsty after a grueling lower bracket finals against BOOM Esports. They went in the Grand Finals with bravado, drafting tempo heroes that do well in the early game. TNC took down Fnatic in two maps, almost at the cusp of a sweep. But the undying Fnatic squad fought back and bravely pushed back, eventually taking TNC's TI10 hopes down with a reverse sweep. TNC fought the maximum of eight matches in the last day of the TI10 SEA Qualifiers – but to no avail.

From July 7 to 10, 2021, the best remaining teams in China and Western Europe will duke it out for the two final slots at TI10. Over at Western Europe, fans are hedging their bets on the favorites: Team Liquid, Team Nigma, and even for the former TI champions, OG.
