What should you be watching in the Dota 2 scene this week? The remaining ESL One Birmingham 2024 qualifiers for China, WEU, MENA, and South America.
DreamLeague Season 22 closed qualifiers, completing the lineup with all teams that will be competing in the league. Although the league has yet to begin, four teams have already found a place in the upcoming ESL One Birmingham 2024 LAN event via EPT Leaderboard.
The remaining eight slots for the event will be determined by qualifiers, one representative for each region. Over the weekend four teams secured their places —Team Spirit and Klim Sani4 for EEU, Talon Esports for SEA, and Shopify Rebellion for North America. MENA, China, WEU, and South America will conclude this week, finalizing the lineup with the four remaining teams.
Ahead of their first series in the ESL One Birmingham Chinese closed qualifiers, LGD Gaming has thanked Emo for his time with the team and announced Gao "Setsu" Zhenxiong as his replacement.
Despite the new Dota 2 2023-24 season having already kicked off, it is only now that beastcoast has re-emerged with its finalized lineup —merely days before ESL One Birmingham 2024 SA closed qualifiers.

ESL One LAN tournament will be hosted in Birmingham in the second part of April. The last time ESL One was in the English city was in 2019 when Team Secret took the championship title, trophy, and lion's share of the $300,000 prize pool after besting Evil Geniuses 3:2 in the grand finals. Another ESL One LAN event was scheduled for March 2020, but was canceled due to the CoronaVirus Pandemic. That event was rescheduled to online only.
