BLAST has confirmed the first set of teams for Slam IV Singapore, marking the start of preparations for one of the year’s key Dota 2 events. The tournament will adopt a refreshed format, introducing two distinct stages and bringing fans into the action during the LAN portion.

BLAST Slam IV Singapore showcases top-tier contenders
Seven of the eight direct invitations for BLAST Slam IV Singapore have been confirmed, featuring a mix of global powerhouses and regional favorites. The confirmed teams are:
| Team Name | Region/Invite Type |
|---|---|
| Tundra Esports | Europe |
| Team Falcons | Middle East |
| Team Spirit | Eastern Europe |
| Team Liquid | Europe/North America |
| PARIVISION | Asia |
| HEROIC | South America Invite |
| Talon Esports | Host Region Invite (SEA) |
One final direct invite remains unannounced, leaving room for speculation. The rest of the slots will be filled through regional qualifiers beginning October 28, 2025.
The tournament will run in a hybrid format, starting online and moving to the live stage at the Singapore Indoor Stadium from November 7–9, 2025. This structure allows teams to adapt strategies across different environments before facing the energy of a live audience.
Positioned right after The International 2025, the event is expected to feature rosters potentially reshaped by post-TI roster changes. This timing could introduce new player combinations and strategies, adding unpredictability to the matches.
With a $1,000,000 prize pool, the stakes are high for every participant. Teams will aim to secure both the financial reward and the competitive prestige that comes with winning a Tier 1 Dota 2 event.
Fans can expect fierce competition as established champions and regional hopefuls collide on one of the biggest stages in Southeast Asia’s esports calendar.
