In addition to GosuGamers, the information is indirectly confirmed by Vitaliy Volochay, aka v1lat. The Ukrainian lighting talent in his telegram channel called the venues an interesting choice from Valve.

If the information is confirmed, next year promises to be innovative, at least in terms of venues for the final tournaments. Previously, major-level championships were not held in South America and in vain.

The region is on the rise, as evidenced by the performance of the local teams at The International 2022. In the main tournament of the year, 3 teams from South America made it to the top 16, and two of them, Beastcoast and Thunder, reached the TOP 8 and TOP 6 respectively.
