Trivia[edit]

  • This is the first International without the defending champion present at the event. The only previous year's finalist attending is Resolut1on, standing in for Team Empire's Chappie.
  • Puppey, KuroKy and DDC are the only players left who have competed at every single TI event as an active player. UNiVeRsE has also attended every International, but was only a sub during The International 2011.
  • Infamous is the first Peruvian and first South American organization to attend The International.
  • During their group stage match against OG, Newbee randomed their last pick Alchemist as they ran out of time.[9]
  • Team Liquid became the first team to win an International with a roster consisting of five different nationalities (six including their coach).[10]
  • Team Liquid became the first team to win The International Grand Finals in a 3-0 clean sweep.
