The International 2025: South America Closed Qualifier

South America Closed Qualifiers will take place from 2025-06-04 to 2025-06-08. Only one slot for the International 2025 is for South America. Usually, in SA qualifiers, it is a bloodbath so let’s see this year who will compete for the aegis.

Who do you think will dominate in South America Closed Qualifiers? Let’s see the teams:

Probably, they are the favorites to win the qualifiers, I can see them at the TI from SA. I would be happy for Yuma tbh.

Chance: 62.7%

Another juggernaut in the SA qualifiers. Actually, it would be a bad blood between them and Parker’s team. Because DarkMago left the team to join Parker’s team. Another thing is, their midder is a pub player. So, we might get a new SumaiL or a completed failure under pressure.

Chance: 56.5%

Edge can get a slot easily because they are the most stable team. I think they have a good chance to go to TI. But, can they defeat Parker or Heroic? I don’t know..

Chance: 10.4%

They got a slot directly in Closed Qualifiers, but I really doubt they can secure the slot for the TI.

Team SC

My God, what a team. So, I believe (In my eyes) they are the best team on paper. However, you cannot just skip the fact that this is THE MOST tilted team in the world right now. If Parker and DarkMago are in shape, they will get the slot. If not – it will be a complete failure.

Chance: 8%

I would put them in the same category as Team Den. Got the slot, but I am not really sold on their roster.

Infamous is a good tier-2 team. I will not sleep on them in any case. However, I would also not bet on them in the case against Heroic or OG.

Chance: 6%

I know that kxy is a good puber. Let’s see if they can get through Infamous (I doubt that).

As soon as OQ is completed I will predict the matches as I always do.

Infamous Dota2 TeamInfamous

2:1

Sustancia X

Infamous should run through Sustancia X. I will go a 2-0. However, a 2:1 is also possible just for the simple fact that this SA is what we are talking about.

Prediction Correct!

Ok, I won the bet. Infamous won 2:1. However, I must give the props the Sustancia X midlaner. The guy went 17-2 on Lina and then lost a game with DK 8-3. Still, I see Infamous is in shape.


TeamDk

1:2

AllStars Dota2 TeamAllStars

No idea what could happen. Both teams are very unpredictable, I would still give an edge to the AllStars Team just for the simple fact that they qualified from the first OQ bracket. 2:1 for AllStars.

Prediction Correct!

AllStars lost game 1. However, they bounced back and got the last 2 maps from TeamDk—props to Benjimon on that Void Spirit.


Team Den Dota2Team Den

0:2

Sin Compromiso

I think Parker is just too much for Team Den. But, remember that we can see some serious throws from DarkMago and Parker. In the end, I will give a 2:0 to Sin Compromiso.

Prediction Correct!

Well, Parker is on fire. But I would expect they win more easily. Team Den put up a hell of a fight against them. Both games went to late game. I really want to see Sin Compromiso against Heroic.


OG.LATAM

2:1

Veritas Brothers

Very tricky prediction. On one hand, we have K1 + a new midlaner, on the other hand we have the old Alliance.LATAM squad with Luminiere and SLATEM. I will give the edge to OG, just for the simple fact that Veritas Brothers didn’t qualify from the first OQ. 2:1 for OG

Prediction Correct!

Ok, I will take my words back. Didn’t expect OG.LATAM to be in such a good shape, to be honest. K1 absolutely rag-dolled Veritas Brothers. The mid-laner TaiLung is a good acquisition.


Day 2 of The International 2025: Eastern Europe Closed Qualifier:

Team Den Dota2Team Den

2:0

TeamDk

I will give the edge to Team Den because they had a stronger competition. A 2:0 for Team Den.

Prediction Correct!

Very well executed by Team Den. A decisive 2:0 for them. I mean that Parker and the squad are that good?


Veritas Brothers

2:0

Sustancia X

They lost to OG.LATAM. However, I still see Luminiere` as a big favorite in this match. More than that, I think they will go a long way through the lower bracket.

Prediction Wrong!

ahahhahha, can you believe this? Veritas brothers didn’t show up for their match. It’s called Tilt Brothers….Very sad for Luminiere that he got out of this qualifiers.


HEROIC dota2 taemHEROIC

2:0

Infamous Dota2 TeamInfamous

Well, it is no surprise that I rate HEROIC very high. However, you cannot negate the fact that Infamous also looks good in these SA qualifiers. But the question is: Can they keep the same mentality against HEROIC? I doubt that. I will go HEROIC 2:0.

Prediction Correct!

Man, HEROIC is really on fire. The only competition they have is Sin Compromiso and maybe OG.LATAM in my eyes. That 4nalog TImber in game 1 had 18 kills.


Team Edge dota2Team Edge

2:0

AllStars Dota2 TeamAllStars

Tricky match….but I must go with Team Edge. Yes, AllStars won the match against TeamDk – but Team Den is another level of Dota, at least in my eyes.

Prediction Correct!

Well, as predicted – Team Edge won both games easily in my eyes. Now I’m thinking, can they actually send OG.LATAM in lower bracket? I think they easily can.


Day 3 of The International 2025: Eastern Europe Closed Qualifier:

Infamous Dota2 TeamInfamous

1:2

Team Den Dota2Team Den

I’m going to risk here and give the edge to Team Den. I think they lost to the second-best team in the SA qualifiers (Sin Compromiso) in a very competitive fashion. Then, they destroyed TeamDk in the lower bracket. Team Den 2:1

Prediction Wrong!

Well, I was wrong about Infamous. Slardar carry? Not to mention that the second game with Sniper is fully slotted.


AllStars Dota2 TeamAllStars

2:0

Sustancia X

Hard game to predict, but I’m going with Yougsters on AllStars. A 2:0 for AllStars against Sustancia X.

Prediction Correct!

Easy prediction. Again, I will praise Benjimon – this guy on Storm is a menace.


Sin Compromiso

1:2

HEROIC dota2 taemHEROIC

This is the decisive match. Whoever wins this match ends up in the finals for sure. I love Parker, but I’m going with HEROIC on this one.

Prediction Correct!

HEROIC won, but I think in a BO5 things might be different. I believe the grand finals will be against these 2 teams. DarkMago needs to be in shape, that tiny in game 3 was a support.


OG.LATAM

1:2

Team Edge dota2Team Edge

In this match, I want to risk. I don’t know, I think Team Edge can win against OG.LATAM. I have won too many predictions so I’m going with Team Edge here.

Prediction Correct!

Risk well rewarded. Edge won 2:1.


Day 4 of The International 2025: Eastern Europe Closed Qualifier:


Sin Compromiso

2:0

AllStars Dota2 TeamAllStars

2:0 for Parker, no question asked.


OG.LATAM

2:0

Team Edge dota2Team Edge

I still believe that OG will take both games.

HEROIC dota2 taemHEROIC

2:1

Team Edge dota2Team Edge

I will go with HEROIC, but this can be a big upset. Team Edge is also very good and I think they will take at least one map from Heroic.
