The captain of Team Spirit admitted how players really feel about Yatoro within the team

Ilya 'Yatoro' Mulyarchuk, the carry for Team Spirit, ranks higher than the other members of the team, so he gives orders, and everyone else follows.

This admission was made by Yaroslav 'Miposhka' Naidenov, the captain of Team Spirit, during an interview with Yaroslav 'NS' Kuznetsov at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024.

"So, there's a question like 'ask **** why the **** they started picking Ark.' Looks like this question is addressed to me. Well, you see, we have Yatoro in the team. He is ranked higher than everyone else. We do as he says. Does it work? Of course. Not hazing, more like... What's the word... authority. He has something to guide us with"

According to Miposhka's words, even though he is the nominal captain of the team, it is Yatoro who gives instructions to teammates. Perhaps, in this way, he wanted to indicate that part of the responsibility for Team Spirit defeats lies with the legendary carry.

However, it is possible that the other teammates listen to Yatoro because of his vast gaming experience and knowledge of many intricacies of Dota 2, as many esports players consider Yatoro one of the best players in history.

Recall that earlier Miposhka commented on Team Spirit defeat at BetBoom Dacha Dubai, expressing his thoughts on the team's condition.
