PSG and Quest Esports join forces ahead of The International 2023

PSG returns triumphantly to the Dota 2 competitive scene just a few months after the soccer club severed ties with LGD.

Moreover, it makes its grand return with none other than a Dota 2 organization that will play The International 2023, Quest Esports. There is no doubt that this is unexpected news for everyone, as there was talk that PSG would be moving away from the Dota 2 scene altogether; however, this is nothing more than a reaffirmation that PSG is indeed interested in esports.

PSG Esports announces partnership with Quest Esports weeks ahead of The International 2023

Through a post on its Twitter/X account, PSG announced its partnership with Quest Esports just weeks before the start of the most important tournament of the season, the TI 2023.

As mentioned, this partnership agreement came just weeks after PSG and LGD ended. Moreover, let’s remember that PSG and LGD worked together hand in hand since 2018, and, during all these years, they achieved the TOP 3 three times in The Internationals they disputed.

Mixed opinions on this agreement

This partnership has provoked many mixed opinions regarding the Dota 2 community. Let’s remember that both PSG and Quest Esports are based in Qatar. As a result, many think this partnership will have a practically infinite budget and could be one of the most powerful organizations in the competitive scene.

Likewise, the fact of joining PSG does not mean that what Quest Esports has done throughout the season has been a fluke. The team earned its place in The International 2023 with much hard work and dedication.

Quest Esports’ Rise in 2023

Quest’s season began, believe it or not, in the Second Division of the Western European region, which they managed to win. Then, in the First Division, the team placed in the middle of the table in the Spring, finishing in third place in the Summer. In addition, it is fair to mention that the team finished fourth place in the Bali Major.

However, the team has shown a somewhat lower performance in the last few rounds, but there is no doubt that they are a very strong team.

PSG Quest’s first match in The International 2023 will be next October 13, 2023, against Keyd Stars.

Similarly, we have seen several fans joking on social networks, specifically on Reddit, where they mention that PSG Quest is likely to finish in the TOP 3 of TI 2023. This would not be a bad result, neither more nor less for this team that started the season in the Second Division.
