The International 2019 is about to begin, which means Dota 2 fans only have to do two things: plow the Battle Pass and create a meme.
Thanks to the talented photoshop above Dota 2 subreddit, you can see what the world’s top teams look like when they’re still playing Dota in 40 years.

Team Secret appeared with players who were all ‘too young’.

However, as soon as the photo appeared on Twitter, Virtus.pro, Ninja in Pajamas and many other teams also joined.
Virtus.pro told Secret on Twitter that they are also ready for a rematch 41 years later, with a picture of Pavel “9pasha” Khvastunov looking ready, despite his advanced age. NiP also responded to Secret with their ‘older’ lineup.

The TI 2060 meme started spreading. Team Liquid also showed off its own lineup.
Team Old Liquid from DotA2
On the other hand, Evil Geniuses is like a new type coming out of retirement and wearing familiar competition uniforms.
Evil Geezers from DotA2
It’s not just current squads joining this movement. The legendary Natus Vincere lineup from 2014 also makes an appearance, with Puppey and Kuro “Kuroky” Takhasomi’s look a bit different from that of Secret and Liquid. Not only that, we also admire Danil “Dendi” Ishutin as a gentle great-grandfather.

Along with this meme, the TI Bot and small events will help warm up the Dota 2 community while waiting for the official TI9 tournament to begin.

The International will begin August 15, and if the Dota tournament continues in 2060, TI 2060 will probably no longer have the familiar faces above.
