Famous analyst Vladimir Maelstrom Kuzminov has compiled a tier list of teams for The International 2024, which he ranked according to their chances of winning the tournament. The list is published in the personal Telegram channel of the caster.

He also commented on the seeding groups for “Road to The International”. Vladimir noted that the balance of power is almost unimportant, and even with a terrible start, the chance to become the winner is still quite high.
And today I was asked “which group is the strongest”, but who cares? If you are in the strongest group, then your opponent in the deciding match will not be so strong, and even if you lose to him you are still in the losers. In other words, you can lose 4 opening matches and then win the TI. And in this sense, all that matters is your form and progress during the tournament, which is what we'll be monitoring
The International 2024 will take place from September 4 to 15 in Copenhagen, Denmark. The championship will feature 16 teams. The prize pool of the event is more than $2 million.
