NS shared what will happen to Dota 2 in 2027

Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov said that the Dota 2 pro scene in 2027 will significantly lose ground in terms of the number of tournaments and the transfer market.

The streamer and former esports player talked about this during a broadcast on Twitch.

"I think that in 2027, the Dota market will shrink significantly. Next year, there will still be a trillion tournaments and prize pools, but in the following year, I think there will be less of everything: fewer tournaments and smaller prize pools. Everything will shrink a little, but that doesn't really change anything. Just some of the money from Dota will go away, and I would probably bet a fairly large percentage on that"

NS emphasized that in 2026, the situation will be quite good, and the number of tournaments and prize pools will be significant. However, according to his predictions, in 2027, the situation will change dramatically and the market will shrink significantly.

According to him, some of the money will go away, which will affect the pro scene, but nothing will change dramatically, and online gaming may remain just as popular.

Earlier, the manager of Team Spirit stated that Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev would no longer be able to play in Tier 1 teams.
