Find out which teams are ahead in the race to The International 12.
The International 2023 or TI12 marks the culmination of the year, where we crown the annual Dota 2 world champion. Read more to see the 2023 DPC ranking and find out which teams are going to compete at TI12.

To qualify for this prestigious tournament, teams will have to consistently accumulate DPC points throughout the year. So where do teams collect DPC points? In 2023, there are three Tours. Each Tour hosts Regional Leagues in six different regions and a LAN Dota 2 Major which all offer hefty DPC points. The earlier tournaments offer lesser DPC points and they gradually increase over the year.
The top 12 teams with the highest DPC points by the end of the season earn a direct invite to TI12. Eight more teams will qualify from the Regional Qualifiers - two slots for WEU and SA, and one slot for CN, SEA, EEU, and NA.
