Finally our hunger for professional Dota 2 games has been appeased. All the top notch teams are fighting in the qualifiers for The Kuala Lumpur Major to get one of the highly coveted slots in the six regions. Here are ten top level plays from the qualifier.

It's the first time that two teams from South America will get the chance to prove themselves against the best teams in the world at a Major. The qualifier was not surprising for the Brazilians, but the Peruvian fans will have to wait at least a little bit longer to see one of their teams compete at a Major.

The qualifier for the CIS region is finished. The two teams that will travel to The Kuala Lumpur Major have been determined. The Grand Final series between Virtus.pro and ferzee was the highlight of the qualifier. It also set a new record.

In May 2018, Topias 'Topson' Taavitsainen wasn't attending any event or planning to go to The International 2018. He didn't even have a team, but OG picked him up and he became a TI champion a few months later. Other teams want to imitate this success by picking up newcomers. These are seven players that we're looking at in the near future.

We still have to get used to see Ninjas in Pyjamas back in action and also to the fact that Peter 'ppd' Dager will wear the black and golden jersey this season. Their first official big tournament on European soil will be at ESL One Hamburg 2018.

The Major and Minor registration for The Kuala Lumpur Major has ended and teams are fighting in the different regional qualifiers. However, some of the best Dota 2 players had a rough time in the shuffle period: they weren't able to find a new team yet and are free agents for now.
