DreamLeague Season 26 will be remembered as the tournament where Parivision made history — not just by winning, but by dominating every inch of the competitive landscape. With a jaw-dropping 88.6% winrate (31-4) and a clean 7-0 sweep over BetBoom Team, Parivision didn’t just win DreamLeague S26 — they owned it.
In an unprecedented achievement, every single player on Parivision claimed the #1 spot for their respective position:
Carry – Satanic: Consistently farmed at record-breaking speeds while dishing out massive damage in teamfights.
Mid – No[o]ne: Played like a machine, leading the tournament in hero damage and clutch outplays.
Offlane – DM: Dominated lanes and set the tempo in mid-game fights with flawless initiations.
Position 4 – 9Class: Roamed with high impact and led support players in kill participation and vision control.
Position 5 – Dukalis: A warding god with unmatched positioning and save potential, anchoring every late-game push.
This all-role domination has only happened a handful of times in Dota 2 history and cements Parivision’s performance as one of the greatest in a single tournament.
Despite being eliminated in Group Stage 1, Shopify Rebellion produced some of the most impressive individual statistics in the entire tournament.
Timado (Carry), Hellscream (Pos 4), and Skem (Pos 5) all ranked in the top 3 for their respective roles — a rare feat considering they only played 14 matches.
Timado’s laning efficiency and clutch decision-making stood out, while Hellscream and Skem posted some of the highest assist and vision scores, respectively.
While the early exit was disappointing, the numbers suggest Shopify may only need to solve team coordination issues to become serious contenders in upcoming events.
One of the most celebrated comebacks of DreamLeague S26 was Talon Esports, who secured 3rd place — their best performance since Riyadh Masters 2023 nearly two years ago.
At the heart of Talon’s resurgence was Mikoto, who ranked #2 among mid laners with an impressive 6.17 KDA and 57.5% winrate. Mikoto’s play was clinical, especially in Talon’s lower bracket runs, where he consistently created space and carried games in clutch situations.
This result could mark a turning point for Talon, whose lineup had struggled to find consistency in the post-2023 season. With Mikoto in peak form, the team looks primed for more top-tier finishes.
Parivision didn't just win DreamLeague S26 — they redefined what domination looks like. From a 7-0 demolition of BetBoom to topping every single player leaderboard, this was one of the cleanest runs ever seen in competitive Dota 2. But with dark horses like Shopify’s hidden potential and Mikoto's resurgence, the road to The International just got a lot more interesting.
