At the DreamLeague Season 26, there have been some changes: Tundra Esports has withdrawn from the tournament after official confirmation. Their spot will be taken by the team NAVI Junior , who received an invitation as the next contender from the Western European qualifiers.

According to section 2.11.5 of the EPT regulations, Tundra violated the rules by withdrawing after receiving the event license. The organizers imposed a penalty: the team will lose 20% of the EPT points they had accumulated. Instead of 8,812 points, Tundra now has 7,050, dropping them to sixth place in the overall rankings.

The organizers selected a replacement from the teams in the Western European qualifiers. The choice fell on NAVI Junior — the youth squad received an invite and has already confirmed participation. This will be a significant challenge and an opportunity for the team to showcase their skills against the world's best teams.
