The International 2021 champions started the current playing season with second place finishes at the DPC EEU 2023 Tour 1: Division I and BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone, which earned the players $28,000 and $25,000 respectively. The team also earned the right to play at Lima Major 2023, the first Major tournament of the year. The 7th-8th place at Lima Major 2023 is hard to call a good result for such a team, but Miposhka and his teammates fulfilled the minimum programme, earning $12,500 and DPC points. Silver in the DPC EEU 2023 Tour 2: Division I allowed Team Spirit to earn $28,000 and ranking points, as well as a trip to Berlin for the Major event. Before travelling to Germany, Spirit finished in 9th-10th place at DreamLeague Season 19, the first tournament of the ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 series, and won $25,000. At ESL One Berlin Major 2023, the team fell short, as a 9th-12th place finish in the standings did not earn them any honours. Team Spirit won the final round of the regional league, winning all of their matches. Thus, Miposhka and his team earned the grand prize of $30,000, DPC points and a trip to Bali Major 2023. In between ranking tournaments, Spirit played at DreamLeague Season 20, where they finished in the top 5 and received $52,500. But in Bali the players had the same bad luck as in Berlin. Once again 9th-12th place and no winnings. The final tournament of the ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 series was the Riyadh Masters 2023, a LAN championship held in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, which had the biggest prize money of the year, namely $15,000,000. The win secured Team Spirit $5,000,000 in prize money.
Before travelling to The International 2023, Team Spirit competed in the DreamLeague Season 21 online tournament. Following the group stage draw, Yatoro and team went to Group B, which they won convincingly with a 4-1-0 statistic. The only draw in the group stage occurred in a match against BetBoom Team. Such a performance ensured that the players qualified for the top set of play-offs. In the first match of the final stage, Team Spirit defeated the reigning world champions from Tundra Esports on two maps in a row to advance to the semifinals. A full bo3 series against Shopify Rebellion ended with a Spirit victory. In the grand finals of the competition Team Spirit again met Arteezy and his teammates. But there the American team could not oppose Miposhka and teammates at all. The 3-0 victory secured Team Spirit the tournament championship and the $300,000 grand prize.
Team Spirit made it to The International 2023 thanks to earning 1020 DPC points and tenth place in the international rankings. As a result of the group stage draw, Yatoro and the team went to play in Group A. On the first day, they picked up three wins over teams like 9Pandas, Team SMG, and Entity.

Evil Geniuses uniforms
This year the Evil Geniuses esports organisation decided to abandon their North American Dota 2 roster and move to South America. The new squad started their journey with a second place finish at DPC SA 2023 Tour 1: Division I, earning $28,000 and a trip to Lima Major 2023. There, Matthew and his teammates finished in 5th-6th place, earning $25,000 and coveted ranking points. At DPC SA 2023 Tour 2: Division I, the team also took silver, earning similar honours and a trip to Berlin for the second Major tournament of the year. Seventh place at DreamLeague Season 19 earned the players $42,500. At ESL One Berlin Major 2023, Evil Geniuses performed well, finishing in the top 4 and earning $50,000. DPC SA 2023 Tour 3: Division I ended with a win for Matthew and the team. At the second tournament of the ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 series, DreamLeague Season 20 Evil Geniuses improved their result by finishing in sixth place and earning $47,500. But at the Bali Major 2023 the team had a failure, because the last 17-18th place is hardly a satisfactory result. After that the Peruvians went to Saudi Arabia to participate in Riyadh Masters 2023, where they took 9-12th place and earned $300,000. BetBoom Dacha did not bring the players any prize money, as EG finished in 5th-6th place in the standings there.

Predicted result of Team Spirit vs Evil Geniuses
Team Spirit looked very decent on the first day of the World Championship, which can't be said for their opponent. Let's bet on a win for Team Spirit.
Team Spirit is the 1st team in the world ranking. At the first DPC of their region, they are ranked 2nd place, passing BetBoom in front of them. At the second DPC a similar situation happens, but this time they pass HellRaisers(9 Pandas). Lima Major was pretty good, although they could have gone higher. They finished in 7th-8th place. DreamLeague finishes rather sadly. 9th-10th place in the table. Berlin Major is going through a similar trend. They take 9th-12th place. DPC have a phenomenal 3rd round, finishing with the statistics 7-0. DreamLeague S20 is also becoming successful for the team. They finished the tournament on a confident 5th place. Bali Major was not so pleasant, they ended up in 9th-12th place.
Evil Geniuses is the 17th team of the world ranking. All three rounds of DPC managed to finish only on the 2nd place, as they couldn't beat beastcoast, but the team is obviously stronger than bc, considering the results of the last majors. EG managed to take the 5th-6th position at Lima Major, although if they hadn't made stupid mistakes they could have gone even higher. Nevertheless, it's still a decent result. Dreamleague Season 19 was a bit worse, ending up in 7th place. At Berlin Major they managed to climb to the 4th place, which is a very strong achievement. DreamLeague Season 20 improved by one position compared to the previous season. They took 6th place. By the Bali Major they seemed to be out of shape and took the last place in the tournament.
Spirit went through absolutely everyone in the group without any problems. I don't think EG will be a strong competitor.
I'm a prognosticator, that's what I do for a living. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I've been doing it for a long time and I have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life too!
