The captain of Team Spirit made a candid admission about the reasons for the team's failure

Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naidenov, captain of Team Spirit, stated that his team became too relaxed and possibly even forgot about Dota 2, which led to their defeat at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024. He promised fans that the world champions would rectify the situation.

The statement was made in the team's new vlog on YouTube.

"The wrong hero pool and poorly placed priorities haunted us throughout the tournament. These are issues we faced almost immediately and couldn't resolve. Somewhere, there was also a lack of proper understanding and tactics"

Miposhka emphasized that Dota 2 is a dynamic game, and an extended break may have negatively impacted the team's performance. He also admitted that the team needs more practice.

"This tournament reminded us of the basic aspects that we didn't execute very well. Perhaps we forgot something. After all, 'Dota' is quite a dynamic and complex game. If you want to stay at the top, you need to constantly play and practice. You need to maintain a certain level so that certain moments become automatic, and you can focus on the macro"

Afterward, the esports athlete addressed the fans, stating that Team Spirit players will definitely rectify the situation and continue to win.

"We'll discuss with the team what to do. Of course, we're not going to give up. We'll work, strive to win, and delight the fans and ourselves with beautiful gameplay"

Recall that Team Spirit suffered a surprising defeat against Azure Ray with a devastating score of 2-0 and were eliminated from the tournament, despite being considered favorites at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024.
