Dyrachyo has explicitly stated that he is ready to return to the Dota 2 pro scene

Anton “dyrachyo” Shkredov has explicitly stated that he would agree to play in a Dota 2 tournament if he were invited to join a reputable team as a stand-in.

The player made this statement on Twitch.

“If they tell me in advance that I’ll have time to play and practice, then yes, I’d go. But if they tell me about it just a day before TI, I’m not sure if it’s worth it. In terms of knowledge, I might still have some skills, but to press the buttons properly and get a feel for the game, I need to play and get used to it again. I don’t think it would take much time. If a decent team asked me to step in as a stand-in, I think I’d agree. Why not? Especially if it’s a decent tournament.”

Acording to a statement by Anton “dyrachyo” Shkredov, the esports player would turn down such an offer if he had little time to prepare, as he believes his mechanical skills in Dota 2 have deteriorated significantly during his time away from the game. However, if the player had time to prepare, he would accept such an offer.

As a reminder, Anton “Dyrachyo” Shkredov previously spoke about his relationship with Melchior “Seleri” Hillenkamp.
