According to the information in the game client, the Western European region servers are undergoing maintenance. To find games in Dota 2 matchmaking, players have to select alternative regions, but this increases ping, which has a significant impact on gameplay quality. At this time, it is unknown how long the maintenance will last.

As a reminder, Valve previously announced the dates for the upcoming The International 2026 tournament.
