Dota 2 Team Rosters: Who’s Playing Now and How the Season’s Top Teams Fared

How to read the rosters: positions 1 to 5

A Dota 2 team has five positions. The number beside a player indicates their role, not their rank on the team. Here’s what each position means:

1. 1Position 1 — carry.
2. 2Position 2 — mid.
3. 3Position 3 — offlane.
4. 4Position 4 — soft support.
5. 5Position 5 — hard support.

The tournament season wraps up with The International in August-September. Teams usually change their rosters afterward: the completed season’s results remain part of a team’s history, but its current main roster may be different. That’s why this article lists current lineups separately from the titles and finals of the 2025/26 season.

The rosters below update automatically once a day using data from Liquipedia. Each block pulls the team’s current main roster from its page. This lets you check who’s playing now without having to search through old transfer news.

Dota 2 team rosters in 2026

Below is each team’s current main roster, organized by position. The number before a player’s name is their position. Teams still rebuilding are marked “Roster not yet announced.”

Tundra Esports represented Europe, though Liquipedia lists the United Kingdom. The team won four tier-one tournaments in the 2025/26 season, more than any other team.

• Lost finals: PGL Wallachia Season 6 and DreamLeague Season 27.
• The International 2026: first place.

Check the section above for Team Spirit’s current Dota 2 roster. Its championship win explains why the team ranks among last season’s top teams, but it doesn’t by itself confirm that its current lineup is the one that won The International.

Top Dota 2 teams: other tournament winners and finalists

Along with the five teams covered above, this overview includes six more teams with titles or notable results. This isn’t a ranking: winning a single tournament, reaching a final, and placing at The International are different achievements. Results from top-tier tournaments are listed on Liquipedia.

BetBoom Team

The CIS team won PGL Wallachia Season 8. It also reached the finals of FISSURE PLAYGROUND 2 and the Esports World Cup 2026. At The International 2026, BetBoom Team received an invite from Valve, competed as BoomBoys and finished 4th after losing to Team Spirit in the lower bracket.

Team Falcons is a Saudi Arabian team that Liquipedia assigns to the European region. In the 2025/26 season, it won FISSURE PLAYGROUND 2 and reached the finals of BLAST SLAM IV and 1win Essence II. The 2025 International champion finished The International 2026 in 7th-8th place.

Roster changes after The International: why a lineup may be blank

As of October 1, 2026, Team Falcons' main roster is blank on Liquipedia as the team rebuilds after The International 2026. Tundra Esports left Dota 2 on June 1, 2026, and its roster moved to 1win Team, so Tundra no longer appears in the roster section.

The roster section will show the new lineup once Liquipedia adds it and the next daily update runs. Until a main roster is listed, check the note in the section rather than relying on the five players from last season’s matches.
