PTG Database Analysis

ESL FACEIT Group scheduled DreamLeague Season 30 for December 2–13, 2026. The online Dota 2 event has 24 slots, a Swiss format and USD 750,000 in total winnings.[2][3] As of October 18, 21 teams were confirmed: 15 direct invitees and six regional qualifiers. The six qualifiers are OG and Team Lynx from Western Europe, Yellow Submarine from Eastern Europe, Team Resilience from China, Skyreavers from South America, and Royal Bear from Southeast Asia.[8][9] The top three teams in Division 2 Series 5, scheduled for November 6–19, will complete the field. ESL’s published allocation lists 14 discretionary invites, five regional places and two qualifier places marked TBC; the later named lists report 15 direct invites and six regional qualifiers. The confirmed 21 teams and three Division 2 places fill the announced 24-team field, but the slot categories remain unreconciled.[2][9] ESL’s current event materials and reviewed reports do not identify a Season 30 partner. Its undated DreamLeague partners page contains references to past events and does not establish a current relationship, so the partnership inventory remains empty pending event-specific evidence.[2][5][10]

All 15 invitees and six regional qualifiers have canonical Team links. The remaining three teams will be known after Division 2 Series 5; participant completeness therefore remains partial until that event concludes.[9]
