Team Spirit Win TI 2026 and Claim Third Aegis

Team Spirit are the champions of The International 2026. The Dragons defeated TEAM VISION 3:2 in a five-game Grand Final in Shanghai, becoming the first organization in Dota 2 history to win three Aegis titles.

Five Games for a Place in History

The Grand Final went the full distance.

Team Spirit opened the series with a win as Yatoro secured a Rampage. TEAM VISION responded twice, leveling the score at 1-1 and then 2-2, but Spirit controlled the deciding fifth game to complete their historic run.

The result was even more impressive considering the teams’ earlier meetings. TEAM VISION had already beaten Spirit twice at TI 2026:

• 2-0 during the Group Stage
• 2-1 in the Upper Bracket

Spirit lost the first two series, but won the only one that decided the Aegis.

The First Three-Time TI Champions

Team Spirit previously won The International in 2021 and 2023. Their victory in Shanghai gives the organization a record third title.

Yatoro and Collapse have also become the first players in Dota 2 history to win The International three times. Larl claimed his second Aegis, while not me and rue became TI champions for the first time.

Team Spirit’s TI 2026 roster:

• Illya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk
• Denis “Larl” Sigitov
• Magomed “Collapse” Khalilov
• Alexey “not me” Kosmynin
• Aleksandr “rue” Filin

TEAM VISION finished second, while Team Yandex completed the podium in third place.
