ALOHADANCE claimed that Yatoro learned how to play Dota 2 from him

Ilya "ALOHADANCE" Korobkin, streamer and former esports player, stated that Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk, the carry for Team Spirit, learned to play Dota 2 by watching his replays.

He made this remark during a Twitch stream when asked to compare his play on Morphling to that of Raddan (Yatoro).

"How do you think it is if a guy learned to play by watching my streams and replays? No, actually, in competitive play, he’s stronger in his prime than I am. That’s a fact. I didn’t have any successful games on Morphling in competitive play, while he’s beating strong teams at top tournaments. I was losing against ****. I’m stronger in pubs"

He emphasized that Yatoro learned to play from him, which helped kickstart the future world champion's esports career. However, ALOHADANCE acknowledged that Yatoro is indeed stronger on the pro scene but noted that his Morphling is better in public matches.

Earlier, Alexander "Nix" Levin shocked fans by sharing stories about Yatoro’s past before he met Dmitry "Korb3n" Belov.
