Fantasy

A fantasy card at The International 2026 pairs both cores and both supports from one team, so the rankings are duos. The field is this event's roster pool, the only pool a card can be filled from. Point each emblem slot at a stat and the ranking follows.

Scored with Valve's fantasy rules over tracked tournament games; the tier filter changes the stat basis, not who is listed. Best series is the highest two-map series total. Entries under 5 games are listed unranked.
