The organizers updated the ESL Pro Tour 2026 ranking, which is used to determine teams receiving direct invites to Riyadh Masters 2026, and 
Team Yandex found themselves at the top.
This was reported by the Liquipedia portal.
The ranking was updated following the conclusion of DreamLeague S27 — the first league tournament of the season. Team Yandex topped the ESL ranking after winning the championship, securing 3400 points, while 
Team Spirit follow right behind them with 3000.
Although the ranking will still change, Team Yandex, Team Spirit and 
PARIVISION have already secured stable positions. It is important to note that teams must stay within the top 8 to guarantee an invitation to one of the most important Dota 2 tournaments — Riyadh Masters 2026 which will take place as part of the Esports World Cup.
