The captain of Team Spirit cited an unexpected reason for the team's losses

Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naidyonov, the captain of Team Spirit, stated that the reason for the team's unsuccessful performances is the patch. The world champions still haven't adapted to it and haven't found their heroes, which leads to the team's defeats, emphasized the esports player.

Such a statement was made during a post-match interview at the Elite League.

"Simply put, the teams we're facing are playing better. They are putting in maximum effort. They have found their own heroes because the patch has remained unchanged for quite some time. Therefore, many teams have already adapted well to it and understand how to play best. It seems that we haven't fully adapted yet"

Additionally, Miposhka emphasized that the team is not giving up and is still giving it their all, despite frequent losses.

"We're doing our best. We're not just going to give up without a fight. It's just not working out. Our opponents are also doing a great job and really trying. Of course, there's tilt, but we're working on it"

Furthermore, Team Spirit captain stated that his team is not only trying to perform well at the Elite League but also preparing for ESL One Birmingham, developing appropriate strategies.

"Of course, the patch has become absolutely tiresome. We played scrims and continue to do so during the tournament. You can see that most of us are now scattered at home, but we will gather for a boot camp. Right now, we're trying to find our heroes. We'll try to perform well at this tournament and slowly prepare for ESL One Birmingham. It feels like a patch will be released before it, but we're still working on something and laying down some groundwork. We play a lot and practice"

It's worth noting that many analysts have indeed noted that the world champions did not adapt well to the patch, which affected their gameplay. Fans and commentators also believe that after the release of a new update, Team Spirit will once again show their usual level of play.

Recall that earlier, Dmitry "Korb3n" Belov commented on the team's current form, stating that he can only apologize.
