Valve's DOTA 2 The International (TI) has established itself as one of the biggest tournaments in the esports scene. Whether on the production scale or the prize pool itself, DOTA 2 TI is a significant event that draws in viewers from every corner of the world to watch the best teams fight against each other for the Champions title.
Sixteen of the best teams have been selected for the main event, divided into two brackets - Upper and Lower - where teams will be placed according to their accumulated points. The main event starts on October 20 and will be held at the Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Center.
Royal Never Give up (RNG) performed satisfactorily in the Group Stage and secured 6th position in Group A. Meanwhile, Entity Esports barely managed to scrape through to the main event after securing 8th position in Group B.
RNG showed great persistence and fought well against multiple strong teams in the Group Stage. The Chinese team was able to secure its slot in the main event but in the Lower Bracket after having 9 match wins and 9 losses that evened out most of their hard-earned points.
RNG has been less fortunate while dealing with enemy team counters and strategies. The team tried battling it out but failed as enemy teams quickly overpowered them and took greater map control. Fans can expect more potent strategies aimed at final objectives to be played out by the team during the main event and not rely on winning team fights.
