Officially: Team Falcons disband Dota 2 roster

Team Falcons have officially disbanded the Dota 2 roster and ended their run in the discipline after nearly three years. The organization explained that the decision followed a strategic review of its esports plans for 2026 and beyond, with resources set to be redirected toward other projects. Team Falcons also stated that support will be provided to the players, coaches and staff during the transition. The announcement was published through the official social media channels of the organization.

Team Falcons end run with unchanged five-player roster

The five-player lineup was formed in November 2023, when Oliver "skiter" Lepko, Stanislav "Malr1ne" Potorak, Ammar "ATF" Al-Assaf, Andreas "Cr1t-" Nielsen and Jingjun "Sneyking" Wu joined Team Falcons. The same five players remained together until September 2026, spending almost two years and ten months under the organization. Kurtis "Aui_2000" Ling joined as Head Coach in January 2024 and remained with the lineup throughout the following seasons.

The longevity of the roster also resulted in a professional Dota 2 record. During ESL One Birmingham 2026, Team Falcons surpassed the previous Alliance record of 688 maps played by the same five-player lineup. The milestone came without a single player change since the formation of the roster.

Biggest achievements of Team Falcons

The main achievement came at The International 2025, where Team Falcons defeated Xtreme Gaming 3:2 in the grand final and claimed the first Aegis of Champions in the history of the organization. The roster also collected multiple international titles during 2024 and 2025.

The biggest results included:

The International 2025 — 1st place
FISSURE PLAYGROUND 2 — 1st place
FISSURE Universe: Episode 6 — 1st place
DreamLeague Season 24 — 1st place
Dacha Belgrade 2024 — 1st place

Dacha Dubai 2024 — 1st place
Esports World Cup 2025 — 2nd place

The final tournament for Team Falcons was The International 2026. The team finished 7th–8th after losses to Nigma Galaxy and Team Liquid in the playoffs. Following the tournament, Aui_2000 also stated that there were no plans to continue a professional career in Dota 2.
