Esports · April 2026
The International remains the single biggest prize pool event in esports. For Mongolian-speaking Dota 2 fans, TI season is the peak betting calendar, and this year's tournament is shaping up to be one of the most open in recent memory.
Where to bet TI 2026
Three operators lead on Dota 2 markets:
- Stake, deepest in-play market engine, best for crypto-first bettors
- 1xBet, widest outright market range and group-stage props
- 1win, strong specifically on tier-1 esports with active promotions during TI
What we're watching
- Meta shifts from recent patches disproportionately affect teams that specialise
- Mongolian-origin and Eastern European rosters have outperformed international bookmaker expectations historically
- Live streaming is free during TI at all three of our priority operators (with a funded account)
