Trivia[edit]
The Kiev Major is
the first Valve-
sponsored event
held in a CIS
country.

With DDC failing

to
qualify, MiSeRy be
comes the only
player to attend
every single Valve
event as an active
player. UNiVeRsE
has also attended
every Valve event,
but was only a
substitute at The
International 2011.
 This is the first
time ever in a
Valve-sponsored
event that a
Brazilian
organization or
player(s) are
attending.
