Ari Explained Why 1win Team Decided Against Making Roster Changes After The International 2026

Matthew “ari” Walker stated that 1win Team decided against making roster changes for Dota 2 because the team believes in its players.

The esports player made this statement on YouTube.

“We discussed why we lost at The International. We talked about whether we needed changes or not. We had those conversations. We decided we don’t want to change anything. We still believe in our roster. We’ll keep playing and try again, this time training even harder.”

Acording to Matthew “ari” Walker, after The International 2026, the team discussed the reasons for their defeat and also raised the issue of roster changes. However, the players decided they didn’t want to make any changes to the team, as they believe in the roster and want to try to achieve success once again in the new season.

As a reminder, 1win Team had to find a replacement for Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko for PGL Wallachia Season 9 due to visa issues for the team’s carry.
