Xtreme Gaming made an official statement after their defeat at The International

Xtreme Gaming published an official statement with the results of their performance at The International 2025. Despite unstable results over the past year and changes in the lineup, the team considers second place in the tournament a worthy reward for the players' efforts.

This statement was made in X.

"In the recently concluded grand final of The International 2025, we lost to the formidable Team Falcons with a score of 2:3 in a hard-fought battle, ultimately securing second place.

This year has been full of ups and downs, with inconsistent results, roster changes, and periods of uncertainty. Even before this TI, we couldn't have imagined that we would make it to the final stage. This second-place medal is the result not only of every moment of dedication from our players, but also of countless days and nights of training.

First and foremost, this achievement belongs to our coaches and all the players. It is your persistence and hard work in the face of adversity that has allowed the team to break through time and time again and achieve our dreams. You have proven that even in the face of adversity, there are limitless possibilities.

Special thanks go to our owner, who has always been there, cheering us on in every decisive match, providing the team with support and a solid foundation. We also thank the entire club staff for their dedication and support.

Finally, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the fans who supported Chinese Dota and Xtreme Gaming. Special thanks to all the brothers and sisters who responded quickly and were able to help us. Your quick organization and close cooperation over the course of eight hours gave us a real sense of what teamwork is all about. Perhaps the reason we love Dota so much is that it can always bring us together, people who have never met before, giving us emotions and strength that go beyond the game.

Five years later, we are back in the finals. Although we ultimately failed to win the Aegis, we tried our best. Despite our regrets, no matter what challenges await us ahead, we will be full of enthusiasm and will not be afraid to dream.

See you next year in Shanghai!
