Team Spirit will still receive a direct invite to DreamLeague Season 22: the reason has been revealed

Team Spirit will once again enter the top four teams by EPT points and receive a direct invite to DreamLeague Season 22. This comes after the global reshuffle in Azure Ray, as announced by Zhao "XinQ" Zengxin.

This conclusion can be drawn from XinQ's statements published on the CN Dota In a Nutshell Twitter account.

The esports athlete confirmed that Lin "Xxs" Jing, Go "Xm" Hongchen, and Zhao "XinQ" Zengxin will join Xtreme Gaming, where the legend of Chinese Dota 2, Wang "Ame" Chunyu, has returned.

This means that Azure Ray loses three players, along with all the EPT points earned at ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 and the direct invitation to the next major Dota 2 tournament. This significantly alters the EPT Leaderboard and places Team Spiritt back among the top four teams.

Now, Team Spirit has enough points earned at The International 2023 to receive a direct invitation to DreamLeague S22 without the need to go through regional qualifiers.

Recall that there were earlier rumors that three Azure Ray players would join Xtreme Gaming to become part of the star-studded roster of the legendary Ame.
