Team Aster started the DPC 2023 ranking season with a second place finish at the DPC CN 2023 Tour 1: Division I. The trip to Bali Major 2023 ended in 7th-8th place in the standings. Then the team gave up a little bit and finished DPC CN 2023 Tour 2: Division I in fourth place. At the next Major event, ESL One Berlin Major 2023, the Chinese club repeated the result of the tournament in Bali and finished in 7th-8th place. Bronze at DPC CN 2023 Tour 3: Division I allowed Team Aster to travel to Bali for the final Major tournament of the season. Of the side championships, weak results at ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 Season 2023 are worth mentioning. The 11th-12th places at DreamLeague Season 19 and the eighth place at DreamLeague Season 20, although they earned a total of $57,500, clearly reflect the poor state of the Chinese professional scene this year.
The last tournament for Team Aster before the Riyadh Masters 2023 was Bali Major 2023, the third and final Major tournament of the season. There, the team was drawn into Group A, where they finished fourth with a 4-2-2 statistic, edging only beastcoast and Team Liquid. This result allowed SumaiL and its Chinese teammates to get into the top set of play-offs. However, the team's path there was not a long one. In the quarter-finals of the grid winners Team Aster first Ledge and Quest Esports with the score 1:2, and in the elimination match they lost to 9Pandas with the same result. Thus Team Aster took 9-12th place in the tournament and went home empty-handed.
Statistics of Team Aster's latest results:
- Defeat by 9Pandas with the score 1:2
- A 1:2 loss to Quest Esports.
- A 1-1 draw with Tundra Esports.
- A 2-0 win over Execration
- 2:0 win over Blacklist International
TSM uniforms
The American squad is also among the strongest teams in their region. In the DPC 2023 ranking season, TSM won DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division I and DPC NA 2023 Tour 2: Division I, and finished in third place at DPC NA 2023 Tour 3: Division I. They also won the DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division I. The performance at the first two Major events did not show the competitiveness of TSM compared to other world top teams. 13-14th place at Lima Major 2023 and 17th-18th place at ESL One Berlin Major 2023 is hardly a good result. The team also took part in previous ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 tournaments, namely DreamLeague Season 19. Whitemon and the team managed to make it to the second group stage and finish on the eighth line of the standings, earning $37,500.
And DreamLeague Season 20 was the previous championship in which TSM participated. There the team demonstrated not the best results. The draw of the first group stage determined TSM in Group A. Statistics 0-6-1 did not allow the team to pass to the second group stage. 13-14th place at DreamLeague Season 20 allowed TSM to earn $15,000.
Statistics of TSM's recent results:
- A 0-2 loss to Team Liquid.
- A 1-1 draw with PSG.LGD.
- A 1-1 draw with Evil Geniuses.
- 1:1 draw with Talon Esports
