Dota 2 TI champions: All The International winners in history
ValveThe International, more commonly known as TI in the Dota 2 community, is one of esports’ most significant annual events. And, with Team Liquid’s historic win at TI 2024, yet another team has lifted the Aegis.
The International is undoubtedly the most prestigious championship in Dota 2. From staggering prize pools to top-notch event production, it is safe to say that TI is the pinnacle of Dota 2 esports.
Over the years, TI has seen many teams try and conquer the Aegis of Champions. However, the event is very tricky, and it is rare for the tournament favorites to go all the way and lift the trophy.
OG’s 2018/2019 rosters were the only teams to win multiple TI titles until both Team Liquid and Team Spirit were able to steal back the Aegis for a second time. Team Liquid in particular asserted their dominance by shutting Gaimin Gladiators out of the final entirely, taking a 3-0 win without dropping a match.
