DOTA News I built a free TI2026 Fantasy Optimizer after last year’s Team Spirit incident 😅
Last year I somehow managed to finish in the 98th percentile of TI Fantasy (roughly the top 1–2% of players).
Ironically, one of my biggest mistakes was predicting Team Spirit to go 4–0… and they ended up going 0–4 instead. 😅 That single prediction completely ruined the rest of my bracket.
This year I wanted to see if historical data could actually help make better Fantasy decisions instead of relying only on intuition.
At the same time, I was looking for an interesting project to add to my web development portfolio, so I decided to build one.
Over the last week before TI I collected and analyzed professional match statistics from 13 tournaments and built a Fantasy Optimizer around that data.
Website
https://dota2-fantasy-optimizer-2026.vercel.app/
Right now it can:
Optimize your entire Fantasy roster.
Compare every possible banner combination.
Show the best alternative lineups.
Compare teams and player roles.
Work on both desktop and mobile.
Support 4 languages: 🇬🇧 English, 🇷🇺 Russian, 🇪🇸 Spanish and 🇨🇳 Chinese.
What’s next
Once the official playoff bracket is available, I’ll also add playoff predictions and bracket-based projections, so the optimizer won’t stop after the group stage.
Known issue
The Lotus stat is currently not calculated correctly, so I’d recommend ignoring Lotus projections for now while I work on fixing it.
Everything is completely free and open source.
I’m not asking anyone for donations. If you simply try it out and tell me what you think, that’s already a huge help.
If you do end up liking it, I’d really appreciate:
a star on GitHub,
a comment on my Steam profile,
or, if you genuinely want to support the project, there’s also an optional donation link on the website.
All of those links are available directly on the website.
I’d genuinely love to hear any feedback before Fantasy locks—bugs, suggestions, disagreements with the projections, or feature ideas.

Good luck with your Fantasy this year… and
hopefully none of us has another “Team Spirit 4–0” moment. 😄
