Top 5 Best Highlights of 2024 in Dota 2

No matter how many edge of the seat moments Dota 2 creates throughout the year, picking a singular best moment turns out to be extremely difficult, from a sheer competitive standpoint. This game has so many factors and so many combinations within it, that it determines the final result of who wins and loses. Quite often, an important win occurs even before the match itself, during the drafting process or sometimes even as early as the laning phase.

But there are better ways to reminisce one’s past, let’s take a memory which has a wonderful depiction of five major highlights in the year 2024. Each time it is different. Some even show snapshots of winning when the only thing needed was to get the team together, others show that two or one out of five players got all the glory, while still a few turned the luck around.

Taking into account the vast number of events that happened in 2024, it is quite logical that there would be so many wonderful moments of those official fixtures. But we had a cause, to try and find even more interesting and extraordinary ones.

Yatoro’s Rampage Against NAVI

Time and time again, Yatoro from Team Spirit plays up to exactly why he is considered one of the greatest throughout the world. Yatoro’s Rampage against NAVI single handedly made his team win the match, as it undeniably turned the whole game on its head and made him one of the most recognized players of the year. 2024 was filled with many strong moments, but this for sure was among the best.

In The International 2024, Pure Saves Tundra’s Throne Against Falcons

Even this defining moment is called as a potential classic, one of those to look out for in TI 2024. As Pure completed his ultra play, all his other teammates had indeed a chance of winning the game even when Tundra’s throne was on the verge of being destroyed by the Falcons. His last-game seconds maneuvers during the climax of the match were spectacular and showcased dizzying tactics and composure in what seemed to be out of control.

Dyrachyo’s Fatal Blink Dagger Mistake

Not every highlight is one of greatness in the scene. This time it revolved around Gaimin Gladiators’ Dyrachyo, one of the most debated incidents of the year. A blink dagger initially intended to go north went east and hampered the game leading him to lose to Xtreme. That’s right, that’s the perfect example explaining how a simple mistake can lead to a loss and allow an opponent team to extract full advantage of it.

The Surprise was such that the commentators called for a review for the highlights as they were still contemplating which universe did that absolute beast of a carry just do that.

Team Spirit’s Comeback Against Falcons at Riyadh Masters

At the Riyadh Masters, Team Spirit was able to show plenty of resilience as they came back from what looked to be an almost certain loss. Their skills combined with their strategies and great teamwork made for a great comeback win that could stay on the history books of the tournament for quite a long while.

Malr1ne’s Magnificent Huskar Performance

While playing the mid role for Team Falcons, Malr1ne’s Huskar performance left everyone in awe. His armlet toggles were considered as a highly commendable teamwork which more of less resulted in them winning the match. This event today is remembered as one of the landmarks in the history of Dota 2 e-sports as far as individual shows are concerned.

On top of the tier one players returning to the pro scene, we also see massive roster changes and that certainly makes the 2025 year of Dota 2 even more anticipated by fans worldwide.
