The International 2021 champions started the current playing season with second place finishes at the DPC EEU 2023 Tour 1: Division I and BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone, which earned the players $28,000 and $25,000 respectively. The team also earned the right to play at Lima Major 2023, the first Major tournament of the year. The 7th-8th place at Lima Major 2023 is hard to call a good result for such a team, but Miposhka and his teammates fulfilled the minimum programme, earning $12,500 and DPC points. Silver in the DPC EEU 2023 Tour 2: Division I allowed Team Spirit to earn $28,000 and ranking points, as well as a trip to Berlin for the Major event. Before travelling to Germany, Spirit finished in 9th-10th place at DreamLeague Season 19, the first tournament of the ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 series, and won $25,000. At ESL One Berlin Major 2023, the team fell short, as a 9th-12th place finish in the standings did not earn them any honours. Team Spirit won the final round of the regional league, winning all of their matches. Thus, Miposhka and his team earned the grand prize of $30,000, DPC points and a trip to Bali Major 2023. In between ranking tournaments, Spirit played at DreamLeague Season 20, where they finished in the top 5 and received $52,500. But in Bali the players had the same bad luck as in Berlin. Once again 9th-12th place and no winnings. The final tournament of the ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 series was the Riyadh Masters 2023, a LAN championship held in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, which had the biggest prize money of the year, namely $15,000,000. The win secured Team Spirit $5,000,000 in prize money.

Before travelling to The International 2023, Team Spirit competed in the DreamLeague Season 21 online tournament. Following the group stage draw, Yatoro and team went to Group B, which they won convincingly with a 4-1-0 statistic. The only draw in the group stage occurred in a match against BetBoom Team. Such a performance ensured that the players qualified for the top set of play-offs. In the first match of the final stage, Team Spirit defeated the reigning world champions from Tundra Esports on two maps in a row to advance to the semifinals. A full bo3 series against Shopify Rebellion ended with a Spirit victory. In the grand finals of the competition Team Spirit again met Arteezy and his teammates. But there the American team could not oppose Miposhka and teammates at all. The 3-0 victory secured Team Spirit the tournament championship and the $300,000 grand prize.

Team Spirit made it to The International 2023 thanks to earning 1020 DPC points and tenth place in the international rankings.

The new squad started their journey with a second place finish at DPC SA 2023 Tour 1: Division I, earning $28,000 and a trip to Lima Major 2023.

At DPC SA 2023 Tour 2: Division I, the team also took silver, earning similar honours and a trip to Berlin for the second Major tournament of the year.

After that the Peruvians went to Saudi Arabia to participate in Riyadh Masters 2023, where they took 9-12th place and earned $300,000. BetBoom Dacha did not bring the players any prize money, as EG finished in 5th-6th place in the standings there.
