TBD and TBA
TBD (To Be Decided) and TBA (To Be Announced) are terms used when certain information is still unknown or not yet finalized. In Dota 2 tournaments, they most often appear in match schedules or brackets. TBD means that a participant or result will be determined later, for example, after the outcome of a previous match. TBA means that the information will be announced in the future — it could refer to a team's name, a player replacement, or the exact start time of a game. These labels are simply placeholders indicating that the final decision hasn't been published yet.
