“The Gaimin Gladiators team has withdrawn from The International tournament. Predictions will be automatically updated when a new team is found, and players have been given 10 fantasy craft substitutions”

It is also reported that in addition to 10 free substitutions, the predictions themselves will also be updated when the organizers announce the replacement of Gaimin Gladiators. However, it is not yet clear when the new participant of the Dota 2 World Championship will be announced.

Recall that earlier Gaimin Gladiators officially commented on their refusal to play at The International 2025.
