Sweet dreams are made of this! DreamLeague Season 22 returns to kick off the first major event on the DOTA 2 calendar, beginning on February 25 for a two-week long event, with each day packed full of top-tier DOTA action.
Under the aegis of ESL, sixteen of the best DOTA 2 teams from across the globe will be competing for a slice of the $1,000,000 prize pool and some all-important bonus EPT points.
Will Team Spirit continue their winning streak into 2024? Only time will tell! Read on for the full ESL DreamLeague Season 22 rundown, including the schedule, teams, streams, and current standings.
Returning to its roots, DreamLeague S22 will feature a similar format fans are familiar with, featuring two Group Stages to whittle down the competition before the Playoffs. While the Group Stages typically see six teams per group, there will be eight this time.
See the complete format breakdown below!

DreamLeague S22 has invited four teams with the highest EPT points from last year (Gaimin Gladiators, BetBoom Team, XTreme Gaming, and Team Liquid). Gaimin Gladiators and Team Liquid dominated the scene in 2023, scoring massive amounts of EPL points. BetBoom Team, particularly, saw success at DreamLeague S21 and ESL One Kuala Lumpur. Xtreme Gaming, interestingly, has been invited due to a mass migration of Azure Ray's players into their ranks.
The remaining twelve teams fought hardcore through their regional Closed and Open Qualifiers in January 2024 to earn their slot in DreamLeague S22.
Seven competitive regions are involved, with three teams from Western Europe and Eastern Europe, two from China, and one each from South America, North America, Southeast Asia, and MENA.
Here are all the teams competing in DreamLeague S22, including the region they qualified from and their confirmed player rosters by their in-game ID.
DreamLeague S22 begins on February 25, 2024, after a long hiatus over the winter season. This two-week event will end with the Grand Final on March 10.
All times listed below will be in PHT, and match winners will be in bold (matches marked with a * tied, with a tiebreaker to be listed at a later time).
Follow this page for more, as we'll post the schedule for Playoffs schedule as soon as the qualifying teams are decided.
As always with any DreamLeague tournament, many matches are occurring simultaneously, so there are primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary streams to accommodate every game. For your convenience, we've embedded the primary English-speaking Twitch stream below, as all Playoffs matches will be broadcast there.
For DOTA 2 fans in other countries, there are plenty of streams for multiple languages and regions, so no one has to miss a second of the action. Although some stream links are missing, we'll add them before the tournament begins.
