Four Teams Set for WoW MDI Grand Finals at BlizzCon 2026

Blizzard has confirmed the bracket for the World of Warcraft Mythic Dungeon International 2026 Grand Finals, with four teams - Dignitas, Big Lucky, Liquid, and Mandatory - set to compete at BlizzCon 2026 in Anaheim on Sept. 12 for a share of the $300,000 USD prize pool.

The four squads earned their spot after grinding through the Time Trials, Group Stage, and WoW MDI Season 1 Finals for the Midnight expansion. Now it comes down to a single day of dungeon racing on the WoW Stage in Hall C, where cooldown management and route optimization decide who leaves with the title. Anyone tracking the broader Mythic+ meta this season should also keep an eye on how recent endgame difficulty changes have shaped the dungeon pool these teams are racing through.

Format-wise, the semifinals run single-elimination best-of-three, with the championship match stepping up to a best-of-five. Remote viewers aren't shut out - Blizzard is streaming the full bracket on both Twitch and YouTube.

Worth noting: the Twitch Drop window stretches well past the Sept. 12 finals, giving latecomers two extra weeks to bank watch time, while the YouTube window closes the following evening. The primary source doesn't specify a separate reward list for YouTube viewers, so anyone chasing the full set should plan around Twitch. For players following the competitive scene beyond MDI, race-to-world-first coverage and the current Season 2 pre-season changes round out the picture of where WoW's endgame stands heading into BlizzCon.
