IceFrog Congratulates Team Falcons on Winning The International 2025

After The International 2025 ended, Team Falcons celebrated their victory. They received special attention from IceFrog, the developer of Dota 2, who posted a short congratulatory message on his official Twitter account.

Congratulations to Team Falcons for their victory at The International!

This is notable because IceFrog rarely uses social media. Since 2021, he has only been known for posting congratulations to TI winners. He hasn’t shared any other posts or comments on Twitter, which made his message for Team Falcons stand out to fans.

The tweet was short and simple but clearly showed respect for the team’s work and achievement. For Dota 2 fans, this was an important moment — any message from IceFrog is seen as a sign of recognition.

Now, Team Falcons are not only TI 2025 champions but also received symbolic acknowledgment from the game’s creator, making their victory even more special in the community.
