DOTA 2 fans were elated with the return of the event after the 2020 edition was canceled due to the global pandemic.A last-minute change to admitting people into stadiums did dampen the energy a bit, but the high octane action of the matches more than made up for it. The tournament saw a number of upsets, surprise losses and a fairytale ending with Team Spirit winning the Aegis. The excitement even got Vladimir Putin to congratulate the young blooded Team Spirit on their achievement.Wykrhm Reddy@wykrhmA note from Vladimir Putin congratulating Team Spirit on their TI win. kremlin.ru/events/preside…8:52 AM · Oct 18, 202184181536A note from Vladimir Putin congratulating Team Spirit on their TI win. kremlin.ru/events/preside… https://t.co/yL7gOWGqt5The aftermath of TIs in DOTA history is usually marked by major roster changes as the teams prepare themselves for next season.
